Hey God, I'm just a little man; I got a wife and family 00:43
But I almost lost the house; I bought into the dream 00:46
We're barely holdin' on, when I'm in way too deep 00:50
We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets 00:54
She's a workin' single mom; like a Saint She don't complain 01:05
She never says a word 01:08
But she thinks that she's to blame 01:10
Her son just got convicted; he blew some cop away 01:12
She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way 01:15
Hey God 01:19
Tell me what the hell is going on 01:21
It seems like all the good shit's gone 01:24
It keeps on getting harder hanging on 01:28
Hey, hey, hey, hey God 01:32
There's nights you know I want to scream 01:35
These days you've even harder to believe 01:39
I know how busy you must be 01:42
But hey, hey, hey 01:47
Hey God 01:48
Do you ever think about me 01:50
Born into the ghetto in 1991 01:59
Just a happy child playing beneath the summer sun 02:03
A vacant lot's his playground, by 12 he's got a gun 02:06
The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21 02:10
Hey God 02:13
Tell me, what the hell is going on 02:15

Hey, hey, hey, hey God 02:26
There's nights you know I want to scream 02:29
These days you've even harder to believe 02:33
I know how busy you must be, 02:37
but hey, hey, hey, hey God 02:41
Do you ever think about me 02:44
I'd get down on my knees 03:23
I'm going to try this thing your way 03:26
I've seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave 03:30
Was he too gone to save 03:37
Did you even know his name 03:40
Are you the one to blame 03:44
Ha, I got something to say 03:47
Hey God 03:51
Tell me, what the hell is going on 03:52

Lyrics:

[English]

Hey God, I'm just a little man; I got a wife and family

But I almost lost the house; I bought into the dream

We're barely holdin' on, when I'm in way too deep

We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets

She's a workin' single mom; like a Saint She don't complain

She never says a word

But she thinks that she's to blame

Her son just got convicted; he blew some cop away

She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way

Hey God

Tell me what the hell is going on

It seems like all the good shit's gone

It keeps on getting harder hanging on

Hey, hey, hey, hey God

There's nights you know I want to scream

These days you've even harder to believe

I know how busy you must be

But hey, hey, hey

Hey God

Do you ever think about me

Born into the ghetto in 1991

Just a happy child playing beneath the summer sun

A vacant lot's his playground, by 12 he's got a gun

The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21

Hey God

Tell me, what the hell is going on

It seems like all the good shit's gone

It keeps on getting harder hanging on

Hey, hey, hey, hey God

There's nights you know I want to scream

These days you've even harder to believe

I know how busy you must be,

but hey, hey, hey, hey God

Do you ever think about me

I'd get down on my knees

I'm going to try this thing your way

I've seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave

Was he too gone to save

Did you even know his name

Are you the one to blame

Ha, I got something to say

Hey God

Tell me, what the hell is going on

It seems like all the good shit's gone

It keeps on getting harder hanging on

Hey, hey, hey, hey God

There's nights you know I want to scream

These days you've even harder to believe

I know how busy you must be

but hey, hey, hey, hey God

Do you ever think about me

Do you ever think about me

Well, hey God, hey God

Think about me

Do you ever think about me

God, hey God, hey God

Think about me
