"The Prayer" lyrics

Ah, da-da, da-da, da-da-nah
Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-da-ba-da
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Plain Pat, what up?

My heart thump, not from being nervous
Sometimes I'm thinking God made me special here on purpose
So all the while, 'til I'm gon' make my words important
So if I slip away, if I die today
The last thing you remember won't be
About some apple bottom jeans with the boots with the fur
Maybe how I dream of being free since my birth
Cursed, but the demons I confronted would disperse
Have you ever heard of some shit so real?
Beyond, from the heart, from the soul, you can feel

And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take
But please don't cry
Just know that I have made these songs for you
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take
'Cause I'm ready for the funeral
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh

My mind runs, I could never catch it
Even if I got a head start, God, please help me
I am feeling so alone, wait
I don't need to worry 'cause I know the world'll feel this nigga
Blessing in disguise, but I am not hiding who I am, open your eyes, bruh
If I ever met you, I appreciate the love, yo
Girls that I dated, it's okay, I am not mad, yo
Unless you stabbed me in the heart, no love ho
This shit is so ill
Play it back from the top if you recognize real

And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take
But please don't cry
Just know that I have made these songs for you
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take
'Cause I'm ready for the funeral
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take
But please don't cry
Just know that I have made these songs for you
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord, my soul, to take
'Cause I'm ready for the funeral

I'm ready for that
I'm ready for the funeral, hey-hey
I'm ready for the funeral, hey
I'm ready for the funeral
Hey, I'm ready for it
I'm ready for it
I'm ready for the funeral
