[INTRO]
  Heavenly father... Creator of all things
  I humble myself... As I bow to the throne
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness
    [REPEAT 2x]
  I pray for love... I pray for love...
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness
    [VERSE 1]
  They say the closest ones to ya
  Be the ones that sneak up behind ya and stick the knife through ya
  That's why now I keep my friends to a minimum
  Check for the ones wit the venom on they tongue
  'Cuz niggas is snakes, they hugs be fake
  Steal from they best friend at his own wake
  I did all I can do and I took all I can take
  This is it, crossin' me was ya biggest mistake
  And was it enough that I split 20% of what I make?
  Was it enough that I cut niggas half of what I bake?
  Ain't enough that I almost lost all my bread
  Bailin niggas out, keepin' a roof over our head
  Enough is enough I wash my hands I'm done wit it
  I ain't playin wit u motherfuckers come wit it
  Keep the fam together God knows I tried
  But shit ain't been the same since B.I. died
    [CHORUS 1]
  (I pray for love... I pray for love...
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
  Every day... every night
  Keep the fam together God knows I tried
  (I pray for love... I pray for love...
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
  Every day... and every night
  Shit ain't been the same since B.I died
    [VERSE 2]
  Lil' Kim the first rap bitch to shake up the charts
  Act like I ain't the leader of this Million Bitch March
  Who got y'all rockin' the Prada
  The Gucci, Dior, Chanel, Versace and Louis
  Please, I'm the reason this rap game is unisex
  I'm the reason bitches want bigger breasts
  Show some respect where respect is due
  (Without who?) Without me there'd be no you
  These next few lines it to you women abusers
  Last nigga I was wit... straight fuckin' loser
  Niggas think 'cuz you give 'em ya heart
  They can... dissect it and rip it apart
  Mm-mm, not I, one nigga's in my eye
  Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy
  You lost a good bitch nigga you can't front
  Lil' Kim is EVERYthing a man could EVER want
  And that's real
    [CHORUS 2]
  (I pray for love... I pray for love...
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
  Every day... and every night
  Mm-mm, not I, one nigga's in my eye
  (I pray for love... I pray for love...
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
  Every day, yo... every night
  Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy
    [VERSE 3]
  When the... money is gone (So is ya friends)
  When the... gas runs out (there goes ya Benz)
  They just don't make my breed no more
  Nobody lives by the code of the street no more
  I don't deal wit the nonsense, I'm keepin' it real
  Wanna do business wit me? Get in touch wit Hill
    ["Big Hill"]
  That's right any questions? No you can't ask me
  Put ya name and ya number on a letterhead and fax me
  U want Kim? Name the location
  75 grand and that's just for conversation
    [Lil' Kim]
  I'ma remain loyal while y'all crumble like the foil
  It's tradition to rock diamonds in my crown, I'm royal
  Niggas ain't believe in me, they thought it was over
  Baby girl risin' up like the early mornin' sun
  Y'all think y'all know but y'all have no idea
  What the fuck I been goin' through these last 7 years
    [CHORUS 3]
  (I pray for love... I pray for love...
  I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)
  Every day, yo... and every night
  They just don't make my breed no more
  Word, that's it... (I pray for love... )(Every day, yo)
  (I pray for love) I'm the last of the Mohicans...
  (and every night) after me
  there will be none... (I pray for love...)
  (I pray for love, joy, peace and happiness)... and every night
  Nobody lives by the code of the street no more
    [Lil' Kim talking]
  I'm sayin... I just wanna be happy, that's all I don't ask for much
  It makes me happy to see my people smile you know what I'm sayin
  I ain't a hater, I don't even like sayin' the word
  (Nobody lives by the code of the street no more)
  I'd sacrifice everything I got right now to have my man Biggie here wit me
  You see that's just how I am
  'Cuz I'm a rider (Keep the fam together god knows I tried)
  What good is it to have everything
  if you can't share it with the one you love?
  If you can't be wit the ones you love... then love the ones you wit
  Don't take nobody for granted
  You ain't promised tomorrow
  Karma's a motherfucker
  I'm appreciative (Payback's a motherfucker, put that on the Stuy)
  La Bella Mafia 2003... Suga Shaft, the Beehive... We comin'...
