God I Pray

[Hook]

God I Pray that you take away all the clouds for a brighter day
And I Pray that you help me face, all of the facts and keep me from falling back
And I Pray that you hold me close so I receive my scope, so I can only see what matters most then, when I reach the gates on my arrival date, Lord I pray you don’t turn me away

I’m passed due, I know you’re fed up with the fact when my backs against the wall when I call you
When doing well barely had time to talk to, so hypocritical, not a perfect individual, expected some residuals, from doing good deeds with ulterior motives like I’m tricking you
My mind flipping through so many ways to justify my sinning, no kidding
See I was just tripping in many situations just wanted gratification, immediate like school kids, but I’m owning up to this now, cause this what the truth is, but what the truth is something I didn’t expect and I lived these years second guessing, missing a blessing, like so many like me do, now its not a mystery of who you run to

[Hook]

Its hard to admit but I am so scared to leave this place to not see your face is like a nightmare, can't complain, its my cross so I’ll bear whatever test just to get me there and I’m a work still in progress, plus you help those who help themselves so I'mma digress
Before it sound I’m tripping I heard your word so many times, but I wouldn’t listen
But I would pitch you some nonsense that sounded oh so spiritual to clear my conscience
You probably just like Tarik my child, you’re moving to fast and need to slow down, first I'mma ask then make you slow down to make you realize who’s King of this now
Now I know its you and I know who to call, knowing you let me fall at all

[Hook]

Weapons formed against me shall not prosper, words I heard in a dream from a famous author, who told me “Don’t get caught up, its never to late to change dogg”, but I’m like sort of
See cause I’ve been walking the border of the worldly, worthy and only steps away from hell, and what’s worse is I know the difference between all three, but in the midst was trying to find me
Should’ve been like Common’s album and just Be, everything happens for a reason I see
So many rainstorms and I needed some lighting, much more brighter than lightening you see life is frightening trying to do it by myself and all I had to ask was Help
I took it for granted and felt stranded, couldn’t stand the rain until I bowed my head and say
