Test Of My Faith Lyrics

Test Of My Faith lyrics



Petey here

I wanna tell im dead broke and im bout to go crazy

half a tank of gas, two ciggaretts 

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 nigga down south

That i was tellin y'all about yo check this nigga shit out

Memba 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 strenghth to keep on going

and wrote songs about it later on

I know this shit hit me home

especially when he was talikin about the money he owed

how he took the bills and paid a little somethin on each one

like he'd put somethin on his light bill, somethin on his phone

he'd get lil money in here he paid a lil 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 lord 

Carolina i remeber an i was



dead broke and bout to go crazy

half a tank of gas, two ciggaretts 

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

Sometimed he wanted to lay on out for the count

frustrated and tired but he got up anyhow

and with a smile i'm talking about 

it makes ya ask yourself how he could then he broke down and said

I aint never been this happy in my life, aint got a dime more than i had

but everything seems allright, then they said he went low

having a joy of a piece of mind, meant more than any problem i had

at a time, and now i know and i'm 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 shit 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

allmost that exact same something it eased me up

knew what it was just couldn't put iy 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

Y'all had enough of your own to worry bout

Not the little situation i had going on

but yano 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 buddah played a song for me cuz

i just shook my head like uh uh uh uh
