Praying Tears Lyrics by Elking

2018

[Verse 1]
I stare at my pad, and pray to my pen
The way it begins, is never how it ends
So first impressions were left in the dust
You’re questioning us, as i question myself in the clutch
Its disassociation, cuz i ain't been connecting as much
And it tears me up when they feeling it too
Cuz i been sick, their confused
Just leave me be, feed me some pcp
I ain't been dusting off angels
I been praying while unsure who i pray to
Sneak peak, this is my preview
I ain't talking my shit
Not what I’m here for
I’m here for, those who lend an an ear so
Fucking fearful, so fucking fearful
Dealing with cynics cuz I’ve been so fucking cryptic
Man my whole life’s about breaking these codes
These people are stupid the system is old
I’m still learning how the chicken gets roasted
Find my true voice, the minister’s wrote

[Chorus]
Its been a long day
But the clock just don’t run out, it don’t run out
Im exhausted
But i can’t quit I'll work it out

[Verse 2]
Escape my mind for a second, i been retreating
My poker face is misleading, I’m just needing a hand
Thats patient and loving, one who sees and understand
But god never gives a man anything he can’t stand
But my posture, is that of a crippled kid no disrespect
Man my intent was never to hurt nobody
But people still hurting prolly, cuz you haven’t been as honest
In your intentions or your friendships, kid
So what is kinship then, when you can’t get to them
And they hang you out to dry
I know that this isn’t normal i wish you’d ask me why
I’m on a far side, feeling life is passing by
Like who the fuck am i? so who do i gotta pay to take the pain away?
How many accolades do i stack for a rainy day?
Andre 3k, looking for living legends
GPS, direction, limited in introspection
My comp i pass them, cultivating care that’s more compassion
Rip Fitzgerald you reminded to breathe again
Practicing gratitude, i been purging all these demons and
In retrospect knowing what i know, they wasn’t feeling him
But couldn’t be as real as him
My appreciation genuine, and deep
Was it something that i said, or something i ain't speak
Baby please, debate with me, i been aiming for some peace

[Chorus]
Its been a long day
But the clock just don’t run out, it don’t run out
Im exhausted
But i can’t quit ill work it out
