Hey God lyrics

[Intro]
Okay, we ready?
Just about
Let's go

[Verse 1]
Hey God, I'm just a little man, I got a wife and family
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Hey God
Tell me what the hell is goin' on
It seems like all the good sh*t's gone
It keeps on gettin' harder hangin' on
But hey, hey, hey, hey God
There's nights, you know, I wanna scream
These days, you're even harder to believe
I know how busy you must be
But hey, hey, hey, hey God
Do you ever think about me?
[Verse 3]
Born into the ghetto in 1991
Just a happy child playing 'neath the summer sun
A vacant lots' his playground, by twelve he's got a gun
The odds are bet against him, Junior don't make twenty-one

[Chorus]
Hey God
Tell me what the hell is goin' on
It seems like all the good sh*t's gone
It keeps on gettin' harder hangin' on
But hey, hey, hey, hey God
There's nights, you know, I wanna scream
These days, you're even harder to believe
I know how busy you must be
But hey, hey, hey, hey God
Do you ever think about me?

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
I get down on my knees
I'm gonna try this thing your way
I've seen a dyin' man too proud to beg
Spit on his own grave
Was he too gone to save?
Oh, did you even know his name?
Are you the one to blame?
Ha, I got something to say
[Chorus]
Hey God
Tell me what the hell is goin' on
It seems like all the good sh*t's gone
It keeps on gettin' harder hangin' on
But hey, hey, hey, hey God
There's nights, you know, I wanna scream
These days, you're even harder to believe
I know how busy you must be
But hey, hey, hey, hey God
Do you ever think about me?

[Post-Chorus]
Do you ever think about me?
Oh hey God, hey God, think about me?
Do you ever think about me? Yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah, yeah
God, hey God, hey God, think about me?
