Pray For ’Em Lyrics[Intro]
Yeah
Look, I don't know what it is, but someone needed to bring this up
Woo!
[Hook]
Pharisees tryna tell me that I’m wrong while ignoring all they sins (Skrrrrra!)
I was thinking ‘bout my comeback, but He stopped me — said “It is what it is”
So I’ma pray for ‘em (what?), pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em
Pray for ‘em (what?), pray for ‘em (I’ma what?)
Pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em
Pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em, I’ma pray for ‘em
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I ain’t worried ‘bout opinions (I ain't worried)
Only thing that they do is block the vision (What, what?)
They been pointing out the ways I was sinning (What?)
I think I grew in my faith just like the Minions (Think I grew it)
It ain’t possible for me to hold a grudge
If I did, I ain’t better than them Pharisees that judge
Yeah, I’m getting better now that I cleaned off all the sludge
But they want to keep me quiet — y’all are asking for too much
How you hating on my flaws but won’t look at yours?
Keep it moving — I don’t wanna hear another word
All that chirping y’all been doing make you sound like birds
And I ain’t with it, so you better keep that off my turf
But let me tell you something y’all should know
About the kid (Let 'em know)
I’ll admit that I ain’t perfect — I been stained by sin (What, what?)
But that don’t mean I ain’t tryna change the way I live
And it ain’t easy, but I know that He gon’ flip my script (Agh, agh!)
I don’t wanna start up no beef (I don't want it)
But y’all are messing with a child of the King (Woo, woo)
Tryna tell me I ain’t qualified to preach (Skrrrrra!)
Like I shouldn’t spread the Word on the streets
But y’all ain’t wanna have that conversation with me
Don’t get angry when you find out I can preach and get it litty (Woo, woo!)
If you really don’t believe me, come and pull up to my city
I’ma show you how the Valley keep it holy ‘til you dizzy
I ain’t kidding
[Hook]
Pharisees tryna tell me that I’m wrong while ignoring all they sins (Skrrrrra!)
I was thinking ‘bout my comeback, but He stopped me — said “It is what it is”
So I’ma pray for ‘em (what?), pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em
Pray for ‘em (what?), pray for ‘em (I’ma what?)
Pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em
Pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em, I’ma pray for ‘em
[Verse 2]
People change, but my God won’t ever
That’s why I only trust in Him, never people or pleasure
I might fall back in the mud, but Jesus changing the weather
And I ain’t doubting for a second that He’s lifting the pressure
This ain’t no game — only God the One that’s taking control
Y’all really thought that you could take me while my King’s on the throne
So don’t be tryna bring me down when I get in my zone
My head been up there in the clouds while He's here in my soul
But I’ll admit it — the limits I been hit ain’t tripping my mission
I’ll pick it back up if they twist it
Depending the business, I’ll send it to Heaven
Don’t get it? I’ll make sure you’re getting the message
The credits be rolling, only seeing three names
My life a movie God directing, and He’s bringing me change
They say your life is like a book — well, He’s turning the page
He set me free of my chains and broke me out of the cage
Okay? (I don't need ya, I don't need ya)
I don’t need you pointing fingers in my face, like you never did no wrong (What?)
It’s like you’re getting on my case when your own should be the one you’re focused on (Better focus on it!)
Got your eyes on the splinter that’s in mine but stay blind to your flaws (What?)
Don’t be claiming you can judge when you never even tried to read the Law
[Hook]

So I’ma pray for ‘em (what?), pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em
Pray for ‘em (what?), pray for ‘em (I’ma what?)
Pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em
Pray for ‘em, pray for ‘em, I’ma pray for ‘em
