Pray

That's why we pray
(Pray, pray)

We got to pray just to make it today
I said we pray

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We got to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)
All my life I wanted to make it to the top
(That's why we pray)
Some said I wouldn't they told me no
(That's why we pray)
I didn't stop

Working hard making those moves every day
(That's why we pray)
And on my knees every night to the Lord I pray
I said we pray

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)

We got to pray just to make it today
I said we pray

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We got to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)
Now I just think that you can do whatever you want
(That's why we pray)
I bust these rhymes making this money and I won't
(That's why we pray)

Forget my people, or my town, or my way
(That's why we pray)
And on my knees every night I'm still gonna pray
(That's why we pray)
(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We got to pray just to make it today
I said we pray

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We got to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)
Time and time and time and time and time again
(That's why we pray)
I kept on knockin' but the people wouldn't let me in
(That's why we pray)

I tried and tried and tried and tried to make a way
(That's why we pray)
But nothing happened 'til that day that I pray
(That's why we pray)

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We got to pray just to make it today
I said we pray

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We got to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)
'Til I'm dyin' oh so fast on this or that
(That's why we pray)
Make that money, workin' that dope, smokin' crack
(That's why we pray)

Ten years old, stand outside, but look down
(That's why we pray)
Dead and gone, never had a chance, what's this all about?
(That's why we pray)

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We need to pray just to make it today
I said we pray

(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We need to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)

(That's why we pray)

(That's why we pray)
(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)

We need to pray just to make it today
I said we pray
(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We need to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)

All our visions start to count 'til we're gone
(That's why we pray)

Take a bath, make these words you need to know
(That's why we pray)

Living high, living good, living raw
(That's why we pray)

Take a minute, bust a prayer, and good to go
(That's why we pray)
(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)

We need to pray just to make it today
I said we pray
(Pray)
Oh yeah we pray
(Pray)
We need to pray just to make it today
(That's why we pray)

We're sending this one out to the Lord
(That's why we pray)
We thank you and we know we need to pray
'Cause all blessings that are good
(That's why we pray)

They're coming from above
(That's why we pray)
And once again we want to thank you
To the Lord, with all our love
(That's why we pray)
(Pray)

We're outta here
(Pray)
That's why we pray
(Pray, pray)
(That's why we pray)
