The song “Mercy On Me” by Sho Baraka Feat. Chinua Hawk. It is off his album Lions & Liars. Lyrics: Hook (Chinua Hawk) Lord, Lord you know I tried/ When I should have been strong I cried/ When I should have helped I walked on by/ When I should have told the truth I straight up lied/ I know your love has set me free/ But I keep on putting you up on that tree/ Oh Lord, Have your mercy on me/ Loving father put you grace on me, on me/ 2nd thru 4th Chorus addition Put Grace on me, on me (repeat 3x) Loving Father Put your Mercy on me, on me (repeat 3x) Loving Father Put you Mercy on me, on me Verse 1 Tre nerves are bubbling, juggling jobs, avoid hustling/ Hard trusting in God- cuz now he’s struggling/ TV’s throwing lust at him, Corners boys punking him/ Wife wants to fuss with him, LORD keep touching him/ He might return to street life, But he’ll fight will all he can/ But if they test him again, He would hate to have kill a man/ The pressure he can’t handle it, he’s lost ways to channel it/ He might Black out, Then he has to be in anger management/ His common problem- his values aren’t- matching wallet/ He’s praying but still jobless, his faith used to keep him honest/ He’s got visions of bad decisions that are void of godly wisdom/ So this one bad decision will most likely land him in prison/ So a week from now, He’ll be at a Bank in town/ he’ll be yelling get down, with some other clowns, waving a gun around/ He’ll succeed ducking the cops and leaving with profits/ But he’ll

    The lyrics and “realness” of this song it GREAT! Love it Sho!!!

    GP did such a great job producin’ this track! With the drums and everything, the breaks and having the patience to hold the loud “OHHs” in the chorus till towards the end of the song! It really made the impact of the song GREAT!!

    Love it!

    gotta appreciate artist like sho who aren’t afraid to show the uglier side of life and still how god’s love can redeem even those. Seeing how i’m one of them it’s great to know i didn’t suffer alone and am redeemed thru one who is greater than i could ever hope to be PRAISE GOD FOR HIS UNDYING FORGIVENESS

    Lord you know I tried/
    When I should have been strong I cried/
    When I should have helped I walked on by/
    When I should have told the truth I straight up lied/
    I know your love has set me free/
    But I keep on putting you up on that tree/
    Oh Lord, Have your mercy on me/
    Loving father put you grace on me, on me/

    How real is that??
