Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They never knew my struggle
Rose above the rubble
Rather live inside they bubble
Than go through the trouble
Of having they double-double vision corrected
They just neglect it and
[Verse 2]
I've been thinkin' lately
Will the devil take me?
Or will God protect me?
I know I ain't perfect
But you should respect me
They don't want me happy
They don't wanna let me live
[Verse 3]
I'm young and I'm foolish
I made bad decisions
I block out the news
Turn my back on religion
Don't have no degree
I'm somewhat naïve
I've made it this far on my own
[Verse 4]
But lately that shit ain't been gettin' me higher
I lift up my head and the world is on fire
There's dread in my heart and fear in my bones
And I just don't know what to say
[Verse 5]
Maybe I'll pray, pray
Maybe I'll pray
I have never believed in You, no
But I'm gonna pray
[Verse 6]
I am me, I'm a man
I'm a sinner, but understand, aren't we all?
So when it comes to passin' judgments
I don't think that you're the one to make the call
Heaven wanna cast me out for bein' me
I know there's others like me there to break the fall
I know you hater motherfuckers just can't relate at all
[Verse 7]
If I'm the first one to the line, that's fine, I'd take it all
Well, Logic, he gon' let 'em know
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
I'm alive, I deserve it
I've been prayin', I ain't playin'
I don't think you hear the words that I'm sayin'
[Verse 8]
I don't think you know the weight on my shoulders
That gets heavier as I get older
Callin' anybody, callin' anybody
Can you hear me?
I pray that you hear me
I pray that you hear me
[Verse 9]
Maybe I'll pray, pray
Maybe I'll pray
I've never believed in You, no
But I'm gonna
[Verse 10]
Won't you call me?
Can we have a one-on-one please?
Let's talk about freedom
Everyone prays in the end
Everyone prays in the end
[Verse 11]
Oh, won't you call me?
Can we have a one-on-one please?
Let's talk about freedom
Everyone prays in the end
Everyone prays in the end
[Verse 12]
Oh, I'm gonna pray
I'm gonna pray
I'm gonna pray
Pray for a glimmer of hope
Maybe I'll pray, pray
Maybe I'll pray
I've never believed in You, no
But I'm gonna pray
