Lyrics
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Man on the TV's gone insane
Everybody's just laughing
People across the world holding on
The earth caved in, the ocean came down crashing
My neighbor lost his house
'Cause he can't find a job
Don't you dare pledge allegiance
Don't you dare speak of God
Speak of God, oh, oh, oh, oh
Now I'm begging for forgiveness
I wanna make a difference even in the smallest way
I'm only one person but I can feel it working
I believe in better days, that's why I pray
Some stupid video posted as a joke
Somebody's life get ruined
Out of everything we can create
Where is the cure to keep the sick from losing?
Babies having babies
'Cause their parents are always gone
Somehow we have forgotten
How to make a house a home
How to make a house a home, oh, oh, yeah, yeah
I'm begging for forgiveness
I wanna make a difference even in the smallest way
I'm only one person but I can feel it working
I believe in better days, that's why I pray, yeah
That's why I pray, yeah
These demons from my past
Haunt me every night
And I just can't get through it
If I could forgive them on my own
I'll let go and just move on
But heaven knows I am only human
That's why I pray, yeah
That's why I pray, I pray, I pray, I pray
Yes, I'm begging for forgiveness
(I'm begging for forgiveness)
I just wanna make a difference
(Just wanna make a difference)
I believe
(I believe)
In better days, that's why I pray
