Pray

Lyrics

[verse]
I’m not someone
Who needs religion
I’m simply not made
To be capable of faith

[chorus]
At least not in the way
Folks do every day
Still even on my best days
-
I pray

[hook]
Maybe I’m talking to myself
Or speaking to the universe
It might be a waste of breath
Tell me what’s the hurt?
No one knows me
The way that I do
In a close second place
There is you
-
I can’t help my self
That’s what I used to say
I refuse, I had to choose
The cycle has to break
-
From sunrise
To the end of the day
-
I pray

[bridge]
I can’t fall back
on the afterlife
This is my one chance
To get it right,
we ain’t here twice
-
Look at your wife
Look in your daughters eyes
Don’t be a little bitch
How fucking great is your life

[chorus]
So get out of your way
Go outside today
Help a stranger, un afraid
-
And pray

[hook]
Maybe I’m talking to myself
Or speaking to the universe
It might be a waste of breath
Tell me what’s the hurt?
No one knows me
The way that I do
In a close second place
There is you
-
I can’t help my self
That’s what I used to say
I refuse, I had to choose
The cycle has to break
-
From sunrise
To the end of the day
-
I pray

[outro]
I pray to forgive
Myself for all I do
I pray that I’ll give
More than I take from you
I pray that tomorrow
Is better than today
I pray
Knowing I will fail
I pray cause it’s okay
