	Story Behind the Song This song was inspired from the witnessing of a shooting on the south-west side of Detroit, Mi. by Propheci, which lead to the 1st verse. During the same time, 15 yr old Erica Johnson was found killed and 12 yr old Janai' Glasker was raped & killed in her bed. There was no outcry from the community...unlike it was when a drug abruser was killed during a fight with two police officers. So Propheci wanted to dedicated a song to them as well as make a statement about our priorities. So with the help of T.T.L., Mistawit & Beloved, this song was born. Lyrics 1 shot, that's all it took-2 the middle of his chest now they've closed the book on his life and that's a shame-nothing else will be written under his name-and now his neighbors close their windows like they don't care-the little children stop their playing just 2 come & stare-another soul put 2 sleep & from the heart of Propheci-may he R.I.P.-and now his wife leads the life of a lost sheep-& curses God everynight before she goes 2 sleep-but now her soul's in jeapordy-of swimming in the lake of fire 4 eternity-she went astray cause she lost her faith on that fateful day when her man was taken away-& now I pray that she pray cause if she does not pray-she'll have hell 2 pay... ...Now I lay me down 2 sleep, I pray the Lord my soul 2 keep, if I should die b4 I wait, may I rest in peace...
