Pray for Me, Pt. 1

I feel your presence when times are getting tough I see your weapon dressed up as a dove I feel your presence when times are getting tough I see your weapon, weapon Woah They say they love, they care for peace They hide in the dark, they don't see (No) They're chasing the blame, they can't sleep Are you feeling the same? Pray for me They say they lovе (They say they love) Thеy care for peace (They care for peace) They hide in the dark, they don't see They're chasing the blame (Ha), they can't sleep I know you're feeling the same Pray for me Pray for me Pray for me Pray for me I know you're feeling it I think we know who the villain is Try throwing us off, we're not missing it We know the tricks of a ventriloquist Considering this isn't televised The revolution isn't withering So your opinion stick a pin in it You never know who could be listening I got my criticism for ism and schism That lead to decisions that left in a deficit Now we're living in suspicion and cynicism We're not getting the benefit And we see the innocence slipping Given the discipline of a hypocrite We're lost more than we will admit We're dismissed but we still exist They say they love, they care for peace They hide in the dark, they don't see They're chasing the blame, they can't sleep Are you feeling the same? They say they lovе Thеy care for peace They hide in the dark, they don't see They're chasing the blame, they can't sleep I know you're feeling the same Pray for me Fool me once, learn a lesson, question a response Fool eleven of me The recurring enemy becomes what we don't want Never the concern of As if it's unheard of, 'til the songbird turns to a weapon Now we're looking for a remedy Must have slipped their memory Kage bird gains a melody Crazed words of a truth seeker Forever fed up of the felonies Need a recipe for who's keeper? They're never sentenced with a penalty Burned away all of the elements I tell them what is left isn't a legacy They say the money's for a better function But we're more abundant than they'll ever be We pray the youth are able to discern the real from the fake A fable can be fatal in the favour of your fate May the truth be plain for you to see If you're not awake They'll tell you whatever it takes The popular promise is vague Embrace the brain of the vacant Enslave them with entertainment There'll be no complaints of the containment All in the name of engagement From the ancients to the greats To the future in our place Give them patience, give them faith Give them approval, give them praiseI I feel your presence when times are getting tough I see your weapon dressed up as a dove I feel your presence when times are getting tough I see your weapon, weapon Pray for me Pray for me Pray for me Pray for me They say they lovе, thеy care for peace They hide in the dark, they don't see They're chasing the blame, they can't sleep I know you're feeling the same
