Prayers

[Chorus]
God be calling me (hear my prayers)
And he said I got you covered (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said no need to wonder (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)
Then you will live forever
God be watching me (hear my prayers)
Watching me and all my brothers (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
Here for me 'till six feet under (hear my prayers, hеar my prayers)
And he said if you follow me thеn (hear my prayers)
Then you will live forever (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

[Verse 1]
Was just an awkward pre-teen
Was barely on B-team
Was tryna get those A's now
But no one sees my feelings (No)
So then I started kneeling kneeling on my knees there
And then I said father, father won't you please hear me
I'm begging for forgiveness, didn't mean to keep that weed
Last time I went to church I said I'd stop sinning
The devil said do it (yeah)
Be like the cool kids (yeah)
Don't act all stupid (yeah)
Take one or two hits (yeah)
My body and my mind high felt strange
To the father, I am sorry
Bring me out this place

[Chorus]
God be calling me (hear my prayers)
And he said I got you covered (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said no need to wonder (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)
Then you will live forever
God be watching me (hear my prayers)
Watching me and all my brothers (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
Here for me 'till six feet under (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)
Then you will live forever (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

[Verse 2]
School cop rolling by
He looked me in the eye
Asked me a couple questions
Those kind that I knew he wouldn't have considered if the color of my skin was a little more white
What a time to live in this world full of hatred
Poppin' those tides for the fame
And stopping the dark skinned kids for the sake other people's safety without a reason and say it's not racist
Going on rants 'cause this hates in my heart
Got evil thoughts so I'm turning to God
Unholy acts I've been doing a lot
Got 'em BA's but cops taking the shots
Father forgive they know not what they do
Driven insane and then shoot up a school
Lord I'm grateful I'm not 'part of that too
But I still pray for all those have been in those shoes
Lord please hear my prayers for what I've done and what I failed to do
Lord please hear my prayers for all the kids and the life they go through
Put my time put my faith up above
Better life better days soon to come
Take one day at a time (yeah)
Please stay by my side here

[Chorus]
God be calling me (hear my prayers)
And he said I got you covered (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said no need to wonder (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)
Then you will live forever
God be watching me (hear my prayers)
Watching me and all my brothers (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
Here for me 'till six feet under (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)
Then you will live forever (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
