Heavenly Father

[INTRO]

Heavenly father... Creator of all things

I humble myself... As I bow to the throne

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness

[REPEAT 2x]

I pray for love... I pray for love...

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness

[VERSE 1]

They say the closest ones to ya

Be the ones that sneak up behind ya and stick the knife through ya

That's why now I keep my friends to a minimum

Check for the ones wit the venom on they tongue

'Cuz niggas is snakes, they hugs be fake

Steal from they best friend at his own wake

I did all I can do and I took all I can take

This is it, crossin' me was ya biggest mistake

And was it enough that I split 20% of what I make?

Was it enough that I cut niggas half of what I bake?

Ain't enough that I almost lost all my bread

Bailin niggas out, keepin' a roof over our head

Enough is enough I wash my hands I'm done wit it

I ain't playin wit u motherfuckers come wit it

Keep the fam together God knows I tried

But shit ain't been the same since B.I. died

[CHORUS 1]

(I pray for love... I pray for love...

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)

Every day... every night

Keep the fam together God knows I tried

(I pray for love... I pray for love...

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)

Every day... and every night

Shit ain't been the same since B.I died

[VERSE 2]

Lil' Kim the first rap bitch to shake up the charts

Act like I ain't the leader of this Million Bitch March

Who got y'all rockin' the Prada

The Gucci, Dior, Chanel, Versace and Louis

Please, I'm the reason this rap game is unisex

I'm the reason bitches want bigger breasts

Show some respect where respect is due

(Without who?) Without me there'd be no you

These next few lines it to you women abusers

Last nigga I was wit... straight fuckin' loser

Niggas think 'cuz you give 'em ya heart

They can... dissect it and rip it apart

Mm-mm, not I, one nigga's in my eye

Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy

You lost a good bitch nigga you can't front

Lil' Kim is EVERYthing a man could EVER want

And that's real

[CHORUS 2]

(I pray for love... I pray for love...

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)

Every day... and every night

Mm-mm, not I, one nigga's in my eye

(I pray for love... I pray for love...

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)

Every day, yo... every night

Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy

[VERSE 3]

When the... money is gone (So is ya friends)

When the... gas runs out (there goes ya Benz)

They just don't make my breed no more

Nobody lives by the code of the street no more

I don't deal wit the nonsense, I'm keepin' it real

Wanna do business wit me? Get in touch wit Hill

["Big Hill"]

That's right any questions? No you can't ask me

Put ya name and ya number on a letterhead and fax me

U want Kim? Name the location

75 grand and that's just for conversation

[Lil' Kim]

I'ma remain loyal while y'all crumble like the foil

It's tradition to rock diamonds in my crown, I'm royal

Niggas ain't believe in me, they thought it was over

Baby girl risin' up like the early mornin' sun

Y'all think y'all know but y'all have no idea

What the fuck I been goin' through these last 7 years

[CHORUS 3]

(I pray for love... I pray for love...

I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)

Every day, yo... and every night

They just don't make my breed no more

Word, that's it... (I pray for love... )(Every day, yo)

(I pray for love) I'm the last of the Mohicans...

(and every night) after me

there will be none... (I pray for love...)

(I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)... and every night

Nobody lives by the code of the street no more

[Lil' Kim talking]

I'm sayin... I just wanna be happy, that's all I don't ask for much

It makes me happy to see my people smile you know what I'm sayin

I ain't a hater, I don't even like sayin' the word

(Nobody lives by the code of the street no more)

I'd sacrifice everything I got right now to have my man Biggie here wit me

You see that's just how I am

'Cuz I'm a rider (Keep the fam together god knows I tried)

What good is it to have everything

if you can't share it with the one you love?

If you can't be wit the ones you love... then love the ones you wit

Don't take nobody for granted

You ain't promised tomorrow

Karma's a motherfucker

I'm appreciative (Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy)

La Bella Mafia 2003... Suga Shaft, the Beehive... We comin'...
