Prayers

Can you hear me calling
Will you answer the phone
Can you hear me calling
Lord don't leave me alone
Cause I need you at this time of day
On my knees lord, can you hear me pray
Pray for my brothers and my sisters
And the ones who may be in danger
Pray for the suffering and the weak
I pray
I pray

I pray for those who facing all the trauma
We attracted to drama with no armour
Take the hurt and then dip it into lava
Then the media takes and makes it hotter
Why do we film the pain
But can't put our world back into frame
Why do we hate
Discriminate
Oh, it drives me insane
I pray for love, love thy neighbour
And don't ever lose that sight
Take the killing and cries
I pray in the dark for light
Lucy got us by a leash
Let's take a walk down to hell
Our world can be so wicked
At times like we all under spells
Put our souls up on the market
That's the best product to sell
Lord, I'm screaming and crying
Can you give us some help

I'm tired of this devil
I'm tired of this stuff
Tired of the business
But when it does get tough
I ain't scared of nobody
I ain't scared to be seen
I ain't scared to love
So lord, give us some peace

Can you hear me calling
Will you answer the phone
Can you hear me calling
Lord don't leave me alone
Cause I need you at this time of day
On my knees lord, can you hear me pray
Pray for my brothers and my sisters
And the ones who may be in danger
Pray for the suffering and the weak
I pray
I pray

I'd rather rubbers on pencils
And not rubbers used to engage
It's not a matrimony
When a bullet hits you in the face
Why'd it take coronavirus
To realize that there's a plague
Money's funny at times
But we all wanna get paid
Take away, hostility
And police brutality
Divorce of our families
Take the infidelity
Honesty is the key
Can we stop the treachery
And make technology a way
To bring peace back to our streets
Broken homes and broken hearts
Broken smiles from fast cars
Shooting shots when trying darts
God, where do I start
Living life and living large
In our eyes there's shooting stars
So let's wish that this world can begin a better start
No more corruption from governments and management
Let's manage it
Replace resentment with a smile
Cause you know it's way less damaging
Lord, I'm here in front of you so can you hear me pray
Lord, I'm praying that this world will see a better day

Can you hear me calling
Will you answer the phone
Can you hear me calling
Lord don't leave me alone
Cause I need you at this time of day
On my knees lord, can you hear me pray
Pray for my brothers and my sisters
And the ones who may be in danger
Pray for the suffering and the weak
I pray
I pray
