Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Many things you pulled me through
And I wouldn't even know
There's an army that walks with me
When I step out on that road
Do you ask them every day
To accompany me on my way?
Whoa, you never forget to ask
You got books full of prayers
The stacks, the stacks, the stacks
[Verse 2]
And if I fall, what if I fall?
These hands will catch it all
[Verse 3]
And if I fall, what if I fall?
These hands will catch it all
[Verse 4]
Yeah
Them brothers came 'round to the block and tried to spray us
Demons of the night, they came alive and tried to slay us
Was hours in my boxers playing corny San Andreas
I think I owe it all to mommy's prayers
I remember in December when they never tried to play us
When trying to hit the charts and rock the radio was chaos
But mommy sat me down and told me they could never stray us
A chart, that was 'cause of mommy's prayers, yeah
[Verse 5]
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
Yes, I know that
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine, yeah
[Verse 6]
I've witnessed harshness
I've felt darkness in the night
Shadows may chase me down
But your words keep them behind
You got me covered
And I had no idea
You put your hands together and you dried up all of my tears
[Verse 7]
And if I fall, what if I fall?
These hands will catch it all
[Verse 8]
And if I fall, what if I fall?
These hands will catch it all
[Verse 9]
Yeah
Bailiffs at my door because the council tried to play us
Then my mommy made a call and in the end they had to pay us
I don't know how it worked, but all I knew is we was way up
Guessing it was 'cause of mommy's prayers
I been stabbed 8 times, but it couldn't seem to kill us
Had a brother in the news, yeah, I see how they portray us
But when I have kids and they ever disobey us
I'ma warn 'em 'bout the power of they grandmother's prayers, yeah
[Verse 10]
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
Yes, I know that
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
Yes, I know that
[Verse 11]
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers, they guide me
Momma's prayers
[Verse 12]
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
Yes, I know that
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
Yes, I know that
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
Yes, I know that
I know I'll be just fine
This little light of mine
I know those hands will catch it all
