Pray

Yeah
I been prayin' a lot
Talkin' to God I gotta know if he proud or not
Been goin' through changes all in my head
Been comin' face to face with every regret
All of the promises I never kept
With all of the words I know I said
But deep down know I never meant
Was growing way out of
That boy body but that mind lagged
Way behind in the process
Snake skin had to turn that old weight to a carcass
Goal chasing look how far that it knock us
Down when you moving up from a novice
Know a couple folks goin' lose direction and get hella lost
In the old you
It's sad when you've been evolving and
People be like they don't know you
When you tryna better yourself
Better your pockets and better your health
Tellin' you don't get ahead of yourself
Scared you'll get somethin' they could never feel
Scared of the demons who come and reveal
So I pray

Yeah I pray
Yeah I pray that one day
I see my dreams come my way
And I save someone life
Before they take mine away
Can I pray
Yeah I pray
Yeah I pray that one day
I take this money that I make
And invest it in my kids
Before life come they way
So I pray

I been off the bottle like way too heavy
Self medicating a lot
The problems get comin'
Then I get to runnin'
And put them safe in this box
If i'm being honest I love being lit
And I fuckin' hate when it stops
Cuz when I get sober the problems come over
That I gotta go and face in this spot
But it's easier to run
RIP to Chester
You can run all that want you
But one day them demons goin' catch ya
Makin' silence through yo vices
At first it seem like whatever
'Till it quarantine yo life
And put yo soul on that stretcher but
Who am I to tell you how to live
I got some Jameson so I can bottle shit
I got this pain within I won't acknowledge it
Cuz I been paintin' portraits top this pile of shit
Cuz truly I'm
Just a reflection of who we are
A person with layers
Who peel like an onion
Who dying inside
You crying inside
And dealing with something
Then let's go pray

So I pray
Yeah I pray
Yeah I pray that one day
I see my dreams come my way
And I save someone life
Before they take mine away
Can I pray
Yeah I pray
Yeah I pray that one day
I take this money that I make
And invest it in my kids
Before life come they way

Cuz I been goin' through it
Yeah I been goin' through it
Recently
So can ya pray for me
Pray for me
Pray for me
So can ya pray for me
Pray for me
Pray for me
And if you goin' through it
If you goin' through it
Then imma pray for you
Pray for you
Pray for you
Then imma pray for you
Pray for you
Pray for you
It's goin' be alright

So I pray
Yeah I pray
Yeah I pray that one day
I see my dreams come my way
And I save someone life
Before they take mine away
Can I pray
Yeah I pray
Yeah I pray that one day
I take this money that I make
And invest it in my kids
Before life come they way
