Only Begotten Son - Ja Rule

He who believeth in Ja 
Shall not be condemned 
But he that believeth not 
Is condemned already 
Only because 
He has not believed 
In the man and the only begotten son 
My Lord 

(chorus) 
For he so feared the word 
He left his only begotten son 
To shed his blood 
Show that pain is love 
But I wont cry 
Cause I live to die 
Wit my mind on my money 
And my guns in the sky (x2) 

Yeah, 
Why would you leave somethin you love here to die 
In the cold 
And it grows 
Like a concrete rose 
You the fool aint I 
Till I withered and died 
On the same streets you left me 
And, screamin Lord let me in 
I dont know where to begin 
Since I lost yo love 
But then again your love 
Was strictly for the drugs 
I dont know whether to hug 
Or to fill you with slugs 
Fuckin them whores 
Instead of claiming whats rightfully yours 
Holdin my heart from all the pain you caused 
With no direction you left your first born lost 
Give or take a few 
Cause my hate for you 
Grew, over the years 
Through blood, sweat, and tears 
I wanted to be just like you 
My father figure, now I want to fight you 
You bitch nigga, left me 'lone 
And parts of me never out grown 
The fact that left home 
When moms was so strong 
Dont let them get you fed 
This world is yours she said 
Now nothin that stoppin me but two to the head 
In life theres more to come 
When its all said and done 
You lost one love 
Your only begotten son 

(chorus X2) 

But what a nigga live for 
And damn ready to die young 
I'm the shadow behind the gun 
Look at what I've become 
The fear of many niggas 
The floss of most bitches 
The love that runs deepest 
In the hearts of street niggas 
Raised in the ghetto 
By the ghetto 
Was taught young to pop the medal 
Thats how shit get settled 
Learn to cook up the coke 
Never leave home without toast 
Learn to fly my bitches with birds not coats 
Never trust ya, from a toddler to hustla 
I was trained as a youngsta, to cock back and slug ya 
Love me or hate me, ya only son 
Let me live or kill me, the chosen one 
Ja, under the gun gotta kill 'em for show 
If you want it you gonna get more then you askin for 
Lifes got more to come 
But when its all said and done 
You lost one love 
Your only begotten son 

(chorus: x2) 

I wanted to be fam of yours 
Looking now at nothin more than 
Two lost souls 
Lookin to meet at the cross roads 
I burn the hydro 
Lay back with my eyes closed 
In deep thought like Brittany is somethin I'd die for 
How the fuck do you sleep at night? 
Knowin you wrong the only thing you ever did right 
Despite the loss I stretch the length of a short 
Now I got a new father whose name is New York 
Runnin wild in the streets 
With heat, we don't talk 
Cause when its cold you basically live life in dark 
When light would shine from the heavens 
And bless one Ja Rule loved 
Your only begotten son 

(chorus: x3)
