Down 2 Sleep - Şevin

I loved you first and loved them next

I paid my dues I ain’t got no debts Lord I

I’m ready to come home (ready to come home)

I done preached your Word through the blood and tears

And I still believe after all these years Lord I

I’m ready to come home (ready to come home)

Now I lay me down to sleep

Purple flag folded deep

Pray the Lord my soul to keep

Yeshua they know the sheep

I dedicate this to the Mob

My family and my neighborhood

Elevated by the hand of God

Now I’m standing right where my hater stood

It wasn’t effortless but yes, success is feeling much better

Than anybody was saying it would

For I hang with the fake in the church

Do my thing in the dirt

My nigga I’ll stay in the hood it ain’t nothing

Reborn, reformed

And ready to handle whatever the business is

Strolling through where this sicknesses is

With a multitude of his witnesses so lets go

Used to bang for the blood game touched cane

Did a couple of things in the drug game

Thugs reign in the land where the slugs bang

Things change now I’m stained by the blood man

No regrets no apologies it doesn’t bother me

Because I been forgiven my nigga

I don’t play that man I’m saved

So I can’t hang where the graves at I’m living my nigga

Yea, running toward the mark of the high call

With a full clip and I’m gunning to the sky fall

I’m a sing his name until I die y’all

You going to see the flame in my eyeball?

Now I lay me down to sleep

Purple flag folded deep

Pray the Lord my soul to keep

Yeshua they know the sheep

Dear Lord I sick of all the dishonest practices taught us

Wicked hearts submitted to darkness cause pain

Like sniffing sawdust

But it’s a trip you saw this

Never thought I’d ever witness who God is

Now my only aim is to gain the fame that’s going to come

When my name is on the list of martyrs

To die is gain man but to live is Christ

The cross cost and I’m with the price I give my life

Pray to the Lord, face to the floor, and let the healer wash ya

No fear when Jesus gotcha bury me a mobster

Now I lay me down to sleep

Purple flag forty deep

Pray the Lord my soul to keep

Yeshua they know the sheep

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

If I am to live in the flesh,

that means fruitful labor for me.

Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell.

I am hard pressed between the two.

My desire is to depart and be with Christ,

for that is far better.

But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your

account.

Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all,

for your progress and joy in the faith, so that in me you may have ample cause

to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.

Only let your

manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and

see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one

spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

and not frightened in anything by your opponents.

This is a clear sign to them

of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.

For it has been

granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him

but also suffer for his sake
