Jeremiah Fauntleroy - Pray For Me

{intro}
(baby, would you pray for me!?)
(would you please!?)

{verse 1}
Honestly, i ain't been ok since you left
Should've known you would leave like everyday else
You don't know how much pain i felt all my life
Feels like i've been in pain all my life
I'm alive but i feel dead on the inside!
Can't even tell how many times i cried tonight!
Feels like i'm dying to live
All i do give, give, give!
But i don't never get nothing back... but lack
Ah, here we go again, i'm feeling alone again!
Don't feel like praying to god, i got too many sins!
Gotdamn, i fell back again
Speaking of god, i failed him again & again
All i do is lose, lose, all i wanna do is win!
Can't believe i'm feeling like this again
Love don't love, hatred & depression is my friend
Cause just like my dad, it comes back around like a revolving door again!
I'm sorry that i'm saying all this now
I had vent about it somehow
Sometimes i think about ending my life
I couldn't hide it no more, baby i tried!

{chorus}
Pray for me
I think you need to pray for me!
Baby, would you pray for me!?
Baby, pray for me!
I think you need to pray for me
Pray for me!
(i think you need to pray for me!)

{verse 2}
Safe to say, i ain't perfect
I've got my own problems
I've been going through some things too
And i can't solve em
I'm been giving up to a lot of temptation
Still addicted to xxx, no tentacion!
I was like adam in the garden of eden
But i bit the forbidden fruit and then i fell like lightning
I haven't got up
I've fallen & i can't get up
I don't even pray no more
Don't even cry more
Feel like nothing's gonna change anyway
Something's gotta change
Stuck in my ways
Ever since then, i haven't been the same
I've been holding on for a long time
I've been holding on for dear life!
You think i'm alright
I say "i'm alright"
But i've been laughing to keep from crying!
I've been smiling to keep from frowning!
But you don't know
Because you don't see the inside of me
Which is crazy to me
I've been telling you i'm depressed time & time again
But you don't think i'm genuine
You think i'm playing
You think i'm overreacting
So you ignore it and you become dismissive
You tell me i'll be alright
Swear to god, you don't listen
Did you even hear everything i said
But if i were to came up dead
You would be at my funeral crying & claiming you miss me
But where was that same energy back then!?
(where was that same energy!?)
Safe to say, i ain't perfect
I know i ain't worth it
I've made a lot of mistakes in the past that i can't take back
I know i can't take back the things i did & said
I know i'm fucked up in the head
It's too much going on in my head
To anybody reading or listening
I hope you know deep down, i'm a good person inside!
My heart's been stained too many times!
(too many times!)
It's too much shit going on in my head right now!
It's too much shit going on in my life right now!
Feel like everything's going wrong now!
Ohh, i think you need to pray for me!
