"Do You Pray" lyrics
"Do You Pray"
Well, do you pray, do you fall
On your knees when everything goes wrong?
Go back to the word in the good book you heard
That will save you a place somewhere
Do you sing from your soul
When you feel that calm before the storm?
Bleed out your throat or sound just like a bird
When she wakes from the light of first morn?
Brother, don't doubt everything
Well, we don't even have that power
Sister, don't heed the battles we breed
Upon those waking hours
I wanna dance like nobody's watching
And sing like nobody cares
Climb to the top of those mountains we see
To find peace and die up there
Do you work, do you slave?
Breaking your back every day
Whether for food or whether for pay
Or just for your baby's sake?
Or do you die, belly up and cry
When you feel like there's nothing worth trying?
Down on your luck and hopeless for fate
Those tables will turn one day
Brother, don't doubt everything
Well, we don't even have that power
Sister, don't heed the battles we breed
Upon those waking hours
I wanna dance like nobody's watching
And sing like nobody cares
Climb to the top of those mountains we see
To find peace and die up there
