OUR FATHER (HANDS TO THE SKY)
(Prod. by Holy Ghost on the Beat)
[Intro – choir + Bay adlibs]
Yeah… ayy… Father in heaven, can You hear my cry?
World goin’ wild but You still my why.
Hands to the sky while the bass go dumb,
From the block to the burbs sing “Thy kingdom come.”
[HOOK – R&B + Gospel]
Our Father, we call Your name,
In a world full of hurt, You the only thing sane.
Give us this day, show us Your way,
Keep us out the dark when the streets turn gray.
From the trap to the church, from the Bay to the hood,
Turn pain into praise, make the broken feel good.
Our Father, yeah we ridin’ with You,
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory been true.
[Verse 1 – Mob x Gospel]
Hallowed be Your name when the timeline toxic,
Scroll full of fear, everybody outta pocket.
Kids see guns ‘fore they ever see grace,
Lil girls hate the mirror, filters on they face.
But You said we enough, so we rise up taller,
Mobbin’ with the angels, Holy Ghost shot-caller.
Your will be done, not the algorithm’s hand,
Not the devil in the comments tryna tear down every man.
We pray for a blessing, You been sending us each other,
Every sister, every brother—different colors, same Lover.
On earth as in heaven, let the love rain heavy,
808s knockin’ while the Spirit keep us steady.
[HOOK]
Our Father, we call Your name,
In a world full of hurt, You the only thing sane.
Give us this day, show us Your way,
Keep us out the darkness when the streets turn gray.
From the trap to the church, from the Bay to the hood,
Turn pain into praise, make the broken feel good.
Our Father, yeah we standin’ with You,
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory been true.
[Verse 2 – Country Soul]
Give us daily bread, not just money but peace,
Let the panic in our chest finally find release.
Forgive us our debts like we swipe that card,
We been overdrafting hearts, livin’ life on hard.
Teach us how to let go—revenge ain’t it,
Let the opps feel grace like a Cross-made fix.
Lead us not into temptation when the streets look sweet,
When the pills, when the clout, when the fame get deep.
You the lamp to our path on a long dark night,
Like a country-road moon makin’ wrong feel right.
[Bridge]
Deliver us from evil when the sirens scream,
When a young king dies chasin’ one small dream.
Put a hedge ’round the youth headin’ out to school,
Let ’em glow in Your joy, never drown in the pool.
[Final Hook]
Our Father, we call Your name,
In a world full of hurt, You the only thing sane.
Give us this day, show us Your way,
Keep us out the darkness when the streets turn gray.
Our Father, we belong to You—
The kingdom, the power, and the glory all You.
[Outro]
Amen to the youth in the storm and rain,
Amen to the ones tryna heal from pain.
Lift your heart one time—
Let the Father turn your whole life into a rhyme.
