Pray for Me

Ain’t seen church in a minute but my aunt still saying she praying for me
Sis like babe get famous for me, mother getting tired of the slaving mornings
If I could take the bills and go pay it for her, like it ain’t important then I would
I was 16 with the big dreams, plain ole’ Jordan’s traveling Raleighwood, city, and hood
Everywhere I’m good, I ain’t stressed out
Well damn... Less it comes to the checks now
Oh man… Whole fam deep in debt down
Every check pops write cause a meltdown
Barely in my major, chasing words on a paper, cause I got a family I can’t let down
Shit ain’t stable, but I’m staying faithful, for a couple Grammys 'fore I check out…
Fuck your opinion, we next now
Shit not the usual
I was a loose screw, scratching on notebooks when tests out
God gave me a second attempt now
Had all my lyrics on desk, now them lyrics on nets, and they breath when they step out
Path put me in debt, but I live no regrets, cause my niggas up next, no more stress now
Stress now

Pray for me, yeah yeah
Would you go and save a place for me, yeah yeah
Would you open heaven's gates for me, yeah yeah
I don't know where else is safe for me, yeah yeah

Said, now we got the whole city on their toes
Pushing back the naysayers that we told
See I've been running on the fear of growing old
Lemme take it back home
I'm so Impatient
Where's my confirmation
We are gods creation
So I'm told
I don't know
Like I said we getting old
I'm really not one for blasphemy
Need a light we can bask in
And see why the fans are clapping
I talk to her cuz she's gassing me
Was a screw-up kid
Ever since a bib
Not a fuck to give
That was how to live
With a finger flip
Always talking shit
Played soccer with the homies that bussed in
I'm rushing with the ball no ones touching
See the goal I shoot my shot my blood pumping
But I kicked the ball too hard, I broke the goalie's arm
Ah shit
Principal called me a bully
But I was the one getting bullied
So what?
I just be acting unruly
Treating my life like a movie
Show off
Always expressing artistry
Thankful Mrs. Miles would push me
Downfall
Balling in the gym 'til my lip got busted
Karma caught the ole' bone crusher

Pray for me, yeah yeah
Would you go and save a place for me, yeah yeah
Would you open heaven's gates for me, yeah yeah
I don't know where else is safe for me, yeah yeah
