Pray
They don't want you to be free
They lock you up for days and they throw away the keys
They don't wanna see you eat
They feeding you like slaves too much water in your beans
You can't even go to sleep
A hundred in a room ain't no room to keep your feet
In the belly of the beast
Inmates feeding warders just to have a little peace
You got adults mixed with kids
You send a kid to medium and he's only just sixteen
You got adults mixed with kids
You send a kid to medium and he's only just sixteen
Some still lockup up they ain't got court dates
The systems really messed up some lost all faith
Some people been there almost seven birthdays
Looking like the journey to the prison is a one way
Church's always packed up every given Sunday
Looking unto God hoping they'll be out someday
If you know how to pray you can pray
If you got anybody that you can reach
If your rich you can do some good today
Change a life watch the blessings come your way
If you know how to pray you can pray
If you got anybody that you can reach
If your rich you can do some good today
Change a life watch the blessings come your way
Heaven or hell which way would you go
Better or worse you die or you grow
Caught up in the system the stories untold
You ain't make it out a blanket got fold
All your emotions have become stories to tell
I hope you get a chance to tell your story
The silent battles echoing the sounds of victory throughout the world
Everyday is a new opportunity to be better than you were yesterday
They lock you up for days and they throw away the keys
They don't wanna see you eat
They feeding you like slaves too much water in your beans
You can't even go to sleep
A hundred in a room ain't no room to keep your feet
In the belly of the beast
Inmates feeding warders just to have a little peace
You got adults mixed with kids
You send a kid to medium and he's only just sixteen
You got adults mixed with kids
You send a kid to medium and he's only just sixteen
Some still lockup up they ain't got court dates
The systems really messed up some lost all faith
Some people been there almost seven birthdays
Looking like the journey to the prison is a one way
Church's always packed up every given Sunday
Looking unto God hoping they'll be out someday
If you know how to pray you can pray
If you got anybody that you can reach
If your rich you can do some good today
Change a life watch the blessings come your way
If you know how to pray you can pray
If you got anybody that you can reach
If your rich you can do some good today
Change a life watch the blessings come your way
Heaven or hell which way would you go
Better or worse you die or you grow
Caught up in the system the stories untold
You ain't make it out a blanket got fold
All your emotions have become stories to tell
I hope you get a chance to tell your story
The silent battles echoing the sounds of victory throughout the world
Everyday is a new opportunity to be better than you were yesterday
