The chorus of Footprints - G-Unit

[Shady4lyfe]

I've always wondered, what's the chorus of the G-Unit track footprints about?
anyone explain it to me? i'm not analyzing it -- just wondering...

"First there was two sets of footprints in the sand
Then there was one set of footprints in the sand
When times get hard and shit hits the fan
God don't walk with me, he carry me man"

yeeeaahh wtf were they thinking when they were writing that lol

[DelinQuent]

he's sayin, god walks with him, 2 sets of footprints
when times get hard, god carries him, 1 set of footprints

[Coccoa]

Two sets of footprints in the sand < two men there (THE BEFORE)
One set of footprints in the sand < one of them died (THE AFTER)

When times get hard n shit is hard < pretty straightfoward (IF condition)
God dont walk with me, he carry me < he's more than protected, he is blessed by god. (THEN condition)

At school, our teacher was very religious, and he told a story of a man who thought God never looked after him. When he died, he looked back and saw 2 footprints, meaning God was with him (by his side).

However, when his life got hard, there was only 1 set of footprints, and he assumed he was aone, but it was actually God was carrying him.

50 talks about when time in the hood was gettin tough, God carried him (1 set of footprints in the sand)
