Lời bài hát: Nate Dogg. G-Funk Classics (Disc 1). First We Pray.

Black people don't have no, no where to go
You know, all we got to do is kick it
We gonna kick it in our hood, you know
What we gonna do?

We might we go kill a couple of niggas, man
You know, go in they hood and do a drive-by
Then come back in the hood and laugh about that stuff
You know, it's just a thing

Only thing you really gonna get deep into it
Is when one of your friend die
Just like when my partnas died

We got some problems
How do you solve those?

First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride

He was my brother, loved him like no other
To top it off, I introduced him to this game
I knew his mother, loved her like my mother
A part of me is gone, 'bout take my brother home

What're ya gonna do when the trials come
Are ya gonna run? Are you gonna run?
What're ya gonna do? First, I'm gonna pray
Are ya gonna run? You muthafuckin' right

First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride

I ain't got nuthin' but love for you locs and hogs
And I ain't got nuthin' but love for my muthafuckin' dogs
In the midst of the war zone, it's on, on site
Daylight tonight, the heat held close and tight

Beware, here I come with the DPG on my chest
Heat gonna spit like Elliot Ness
In the darkest zone, you feel alone and on your own
And after I bust, niggas call me Kurupt Corleone

All I'm about is money, loot and cash
Homies in the DPG, Nate, Snoop and Daz
Now with these emotions, how you approach yourself
Knowin' you all about your wealth and as it is to health

First I pray, get my thoughts intact
Ask for forgiveness 'cause I'm 'bout to lay this nigga flat
Can you adapt, can you feel me? I doubt it
'Cause the closest you see it is when niggas write about it

I can't live without it and it ain't shit I could do
But stay down with the homies in gray and blue
So just keep the heat close in hand
'Cause I done see niggas get shit while they homeboys ran

Heavenly Father, shine Your light on me
I know I promised to slow down on this weed
Seems I remember someone used to say
One life gets taken if you take one life away

What're ya gonna do when the trials come
Are ya gonna run? Are you gonna run?
What're ya gonna do? First I'm gonna pray
Are ya gonna run? You muthafuckin' right

First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride
First we pray then we ride

First we pray then we ride
