Curtains Closed (Outro) [Lights Off]
As I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
And as I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
Beaten bruised and damaged, I just couldn't stand it
I can't lie right now, got to be real candid
Ain't no jokes right here, but these the cards I was handed
I could never pay the price, I'm in debt, took God for granted
I've written more verses than reading, fifth I was pleading
I wasn't hearing God, hearing other things was misleading
I was tricked, you could tell by the way I was treating
Myself, give it all away while I'm feeling so depleted
But I'm ok with it make sure that my people eating
I got other things that I know I want to be achieving
I can't tell if it's my pride or humility that's speaking
What you starve dies, you keep it alive by feeding
I was sleeping with depression and anxiety
Happiness, I was cheating
Try to give it up, but I feel like I need it
'Til the day that I stop breathing
I want to know I was in it for the right reason
As I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
And as I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
Behind the scenes, when all the curtains was closed
Going through things that nobody knows
All of the highs and lows
One, two, three, in my mind I was fighting all of my foes
When everything going on, hard to stay strong
Some days hard to make songs
But you was there for so long
I know I'ma impact thousands and millions
But I'm really performing for an audience of one
Figuring out ways to shed light on the son
Battle I'm facing right now, with you
I know I already won
I can't quit right now because the mission ain't even close to done
Momma and poppa was raising a soldier and spitter
They ain't raised no quitter
Only L I took was lessons, cause I know I been a winner
Only thing that I could do is get better never bitter
Trying to be a saint, not trying to be a sinner
When the curtains closed and the lights was off
When I feel like I'm down bad and my back against the wall
Whether I rise or fall you the one that was there for it all
You the only one that I could call
Only one can't behind the mask
For you I give my all to the craft
As I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
As I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
And as I lay myself to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
Beaten bruised and damaged, I just couldn't stand it
I can't lie right now, got to be real candid
Ain't no jokes right here, but these the cards I was handed
I could never pay the price, I'm in debt, took God for granted

I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me

I pray the Lord watch over me

I pray the Lord watch over me
I pray the Lord watch over me
