Test Of My Faith

Petey here
I wanna tell
Im dead broke and
Im bout to go crazy
Half a tank of gas, two cigarettes
Scrapping up change in the ashtray
Then the voices its only a test of my faith
It was only
Damn theres a song for that ***** down south
That I was tellin yall about yo check this ***** **** out
Remember that song
I told you came on sounding like
He was talking about everything in my life
How he was at a point in his own
And the problem seemed to be taking a toll
He been fightin so long
Seemed like everything he did went wrong
But he found the strength to keep on going
And wrote songs about it later on
I know this *** * hit me home
Especially when he was talkin about the money he owed
How he took the bills and he paid a little somethin on each one
Like hed put somethin on his light bill, somethin on his phone
Hed get a lot of money in here, he paid a little more
He aint have it all so he just paid what he could on it
And somehow he managed to keep all this stuff going
It was nothin but a grace to the
LordCarolina
I remember an
I wasDead broke and bout to go crazy
Half a tank of gas, two cigarettes
Scrapping up change in the ashtray
And the voices its was only a test of my faith
It was only
Say it seemed like every time he got himself off the ground
Somethin would come and knock him right back down
Sometimes he wanted to lay on out for the count
Frustrated and tired but he got on up anyhow
And with a smile
Im talking about
It makes ya ask yourself how he could then he broke down and said'I aint never been this happy in my lifeAint got a dime more than I had but everything seems alright'
Then they said he went low having a joy of a piece of mind
Meant more than any problem
I hadAt a time and now
I know and
Im so glad
It was only a sign of the time
It was only asking me why should
I cry?It was only saying, 'Be glad your alive today'
It was only, only a test of my faith
Man he went and sang that song
Play this **** every morning just to get my little day goin
You just dont know how this had touched my soul
To find out
I wasnt the only one that been through so
Almost that exact same something it eased me up
Knew what it was just couldnt put it in words
I aint never been the type that really talk to nobody
So all the problem
I had I just kept it all inside me
Yall had enough of your own to worry bout
Not the little situation
I had going on
But you know
God wont let you suffer to long
I aint even have the radio on
I was out on the porch
Then boom!
From the Heavens above
Just when
I was at that point and
I was just about to mess up
Man Buddha played a song for me cuz
I just shook my head like uh uh uh uh
Dead broke and bout to go crazy
Half a tank of gas, two cigarettes
Scrapping up change in the ashtray
And the voices it's was only a test of my faith
It was only
It was only a sign of the time
It was only asking me why should
I cry?It was only saying, 'Be glad your alive today'
It was only, only a test of my faith
