26 Years, 17 Days Lyrics - Singles - Lyfe

I was looking for God at my grandmama's house 

Underneath the cushions on a couch 

I looked all around, side to side, up and down 

That man, no where to be found 

So I called my grandmama on the phone 

Said, "Old lady you best get home 

'Cause God ain't where you said he would be 

And there's something that I really need 

To speak with him about immediately" 

She said, "Boy tell granny what's wrong 

Is there something I can do" 

I said, "Big mama now it's a sensitive issue 

And Lord knows I don't wanna worry you 

But I need somebody to talk to" 

It done been 26 years, 17 days 

Been to 5 different prisons, got 2 babies on the way 

And they say, "It'll be a waste of time to pray" 

Seeing that I'm going to hell anyway 

It done been 26 years, 17 days 

Been to 5 different prisons, got 2 babies on the way 

And they say, "It'll be a waste of time to pray" 

Seeing that I'm going to hell anyway 

I done smoked weed with the best of y'all 

Shot at all the rest of y'all 

My heart hurts like an old man with high cholesterol 

The preacher said that I'm the dirtiest dude he ever saw 

Shouldn't even be livin' and he a Christian 

Should've been dead like 17 times from 17 crimes I committed 

Took 'em all to trial and got aquited 

Left wavin' my middle finger in the air 

Whispered in the prosecutors' ear 

(Yeah I did it) 

I done stole everything from dreams to wedding rings 

Auctioned off my soul for material things 

But lately it's been kinda botherin' me 

I guess that turtle always catches up with the rabbit eventually 

It done been 26 years, 17 days 

Been to 5 different prisons, got 2 babies on the way 

And they say, "It'll be a waste of time to pray" 

Seeing that I'm going to hell anyway 

It done been 26 years, 17 days 

Been to 5 different prisons got 2 babies on the way 

And they say, "It'll be a waste of time to pray" 

Seeing that I'm going to hell anyway 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

Somebody loves you girl, loves you 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

Well you think no one does, somebody loves you, babe 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

Oh, somebody 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

Somebody loves, somebody cares for you, somebody does, yo 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

Ooh, my problem's you 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

'Coz it ain't no [Incomprehensible] there's still a chance, still a way 

(Somebody loves you, baby) 

That somebody loves you, somebody cares for you, oh
