I Pray (Caroll County Sessions)

I'm tryna outrun my mind
Reminding myself of everything I'd leave behind
But the bottle keeps sellin' me lies
And I'd buy anything to get that high
I hope God takes mercy on my soul
'Cause I don't wanna let go

I'm puttin' on fake smiles for everyone but me
'Cause I just can't stand to see
My momma cryin'
She can see me dyin'
And I keep tryna talk to Jesus
And ask Him to take my demons
And one day, I'll be okay
So I pray

I'm tryna believe in love
It's just gettin' hard to see
Through all this blood
And when it's not enough
It's kill and be killed by the thoughts
That lost your trust

I'm puttin' on fake smiles for everyone but me
'Cause I just can't stand to see
My momma cryin'
'Cause she can see me dyin'
And I keep tryna talk to Jesus
And ask Him to take my demons
And one day, I'll be okay
So I pray

And wish I had the answer why
I feel so dead inside
And I'm just gettin' tired

Of puttin' on fake smiles for everyone but me
'Cause I just can't stand to see
My momma cryin'
She can see me dyin'
And I keep tryna talk to Jesus
And ask Him to take my demons
And one day, I'll be okay
So I pray
