The Prayer Lyrics by Mad Sadiq

Outspoken

2017

[Verse 1]
I be stressing over all these dark thoughts that I have
Askin' God why he had to make my heart out of glass
It's kinda hard to keep pumpin' with the cracks
How can I move forward if I just keep lookin' back
So I bow down to my knees
Askin' God please
Can you wash away my sins and protect my family
Lord I give my life to thee, you are the air I breathe
Though this world is filled with hate, oh Lord God you give me peace
Sometimes when I feel alone, thank God that I have a home
Blessed me with some healthy bones
Always answers his phone
Ask him to help along the way
Thank God for everyday, thank You for healing when I pray
Thank You for takin' pain away
[Chorus]
If I die, before I wake
I pray to Lord my soul to take
But please don't cry, cause mama Imma be a star for you
And if I die, before I make it
I pray to Lord my soul to take, but I'm not ready for a funeral
[Bridge]
Please keep us safe (keep us safe)
Please make me great (make me great)
I say today (today)
We praise your name
[Verse 2]
Uh, the Messiah
Uh, take me higher
Uh, you spark the fire
That made Ahmad a fighter
With the adversity that curses me, I'm shining brighter
You kept me worry free now certainly, I'm finna rise up
And thrive, keep my eyes right on the prize
As long as I'm alive, always be sure I'm the guy
All the ones that threw shade well the devil's a lie
Once I obtain the fame they'll want some of the pie
It's obvious I came a long way from the naughty list
I'll probably just buy my own gifts, when I'm prosperous
[Chorus]
If I die, before I wake
I pray to Lord my soul to take
But please don't cry, cause mama Imma be a star for you
And if I die, before I make it
I pray to Lord my soul to take, but I'm not ready for a funeral
If I die, before I wake
I pray to Lord my soul to take
But please don't cry, cause mama Imma be a star for you
And if I die, before I make it
I pray to Lord my soul to take, but I'm not ready for a funeral
If I die, before I wake
I pray to Lord my soul to take
But please don't cry, cause mama Imma be a star for you
And if I die, before I make it
I pray to Lord my soul to take, but I'm not ready for a funeral
