They Prayed On My Downfall

Verse

Fresh off remand, they tried to cage the hustler’s soul

But I flipped the script, now I’m back where the Fraser flows

Clearbrook nights, neon flicker on my 604

Burning throttle ‘cross the mission, dodgin’ forty-ozs and law

They laid three-oh-six on me, said I’d never see the sun

But I kept my circle tight—no rats, just real ones

G-ride tinted, forged that alibi in memory lane

Now I’m gliding past the Mall, stackin’ green, call it Mission gain

Pockets heavy like a throwback Saturday at MSA

No cuffs could hold me down, I’m the emperor of my own fate

VVS in my cup, iced out like the winter wind

Every doubter in my rearview—homie, watch me win

Chorus

They prayed on my downfall (They prayed)

They watched me hit the wall (They watched)

On all ten, I stood tall (I stood)

Show these disloyal punks how to ball

They prayed on my downfall

They prayed on my downfall

On all ten, I stood tall

Now I’m OG back in Abby—watch me ball

Verse

Remember Heart & Crown nights, fistfight over dime bags

Now it’s family trusts, London trusts, better flex them facts

I got keys to the airwaves, 101.5 rockin’ new heat

While you snitchin’ on your partners, I’m rollin’ in discrete fleets

Tattoos map my hustle: Sumas bridge to Abbotsford Way

Young G’s learn the code: never fold when the feds wanna play

I ducked an I-bus swoop, swerved through Hope like it was Toretto

Now I’m flippin’ work so clean, icebergs melt in my ghetto

I let her call me “baby,” then I duck ‘cause love’s a liability

Bad posture in the courtroom—bench warrant in viability

But I flipped that case, clear skies back in the Valley haze

Now I’m talkin’ 223s on chrome, shoot the shade when I blaze

Chorus

They prayed on my downfall (They prayed)

Verse

Back in the hundred-acre zone where the maple leaves bleed red

We’re cookin’ salt crystals, countin’ white lines in the shed

That street cookhouse life taught me loyalty’s rare

You slip once, get marked up—no bail, no prayer

But I boxed in my enemies, Mandeep taught me patience

Locked in my mind, no fear—just calculated patience

My dawg got pinched on the Waldo, but he’s home now, free

We buildin’ up stacks in the basement by the rails of the BC

From Langley down to Chuckanut, they feel our comeback

No more orange jumpsuits—just tailored suits and black wax

I raise a toast to my bro, J Infant, new chapter, fresh slate

Said goodbye to the steel bars, say hello to my fate

First offer was life, they laughed when I said “Nah, I’m gone”

Cracker judge took a nap while my lawyer worked the dawn

Parole’s just a number, I keep that heater close, on bond

Boom-boom—send him home, no arrears, no con

Chorus

They prayed on my downfall

Now I’m OG back in Abby—watch

Yeah… DJ Klayboy, we out. Free Jason
