Ain't no place I'd rather be..Only place that's right for me

I need a place to spend my quiet nights, a time to
unwind
There's so much pressure in this life of mine, I cry
at times
I once contemplated suicide, and would have tried
But when I held that 9, all I could see was my
baby's eyes

No one knows my struggle, they only see the
trouble
Not knowin it's hard to carry on when no one loves
you
Picture me inside the misery of poverty
No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I
survived

Prayin hard for better days, promise to hold on
Will I survive all the fights and the darkness?
Trouble sparks, they tell me home is where the
heart is, dear departed
I shed tattooed tears and couldn't sleep good

Nobody cares, seen the politicians ban us
They'd rather see us locked in chains, please
explain
Why they can't stand us, is there a way for me to
change?
Or am I just a victim of things I did to maintain?

I need a place to rest my head
Is there a spot for me to roll, if you find it
I'll be right behind you, show me and I'll go
How can I be peaceful? I'm comin from the bottom

Maybe in time you'll understand only God can save
us
When everything is worst, needless to say
Just think of all the people that you knew in the
past
That passed on, they're in heaven, found peace at
last

Picture a place that they exist together
There has to be a place better than this, in heaven
So right before I sleep, dear God, what I'm askin
Remember this face, save me a place, in your
Kingdom
