Em
They never knew my struggle
Rose above the rubble
Rather live inside they bubble
G
then go through the trouble
of havin' they double
double vision correct it
They just neglect it and
Am
I been thinking lately
Will the Devil take me?
or will God protect me?
C
I know I ain't perfect,
but you should respect me
They don't want me happy
They don't want to let me live
Em
I'm young and I'm foolish,
I've made bad decisions
G
I block out the news,
turn my back on religion
Am
Don't have no degree,
I'm somewhat naive
C
I've made it this far on my own
Em
But lately, that shit
ain't been getting me higher
G
I lift up my head
and the world is on fire
Am
There's dread in my heart
and fear in my bones
C
I just don't know what to say
(Chorus)
Em G
Maybe I'll pray.. pray..
Am
Maybe I'll pray..
C
I've never believed in you, no,
Em G Am C
but I'm gonna pray..
Em
I am me, I'm a man, I'm a sinner
G
But understand, aren't we all?
So when it comes to passin' judgements
I don't think that
Am
you're the one to make the call
Heaven want to cast me out for being me,
I know there's others like me
C
that'll break the fall
I know you hater m*therf*ckers
Em
just can't relate at all
If I'm the first one to the line
G
that's fine, I'll take it all
Well Logic, He gon' let 'em know
Am
I ain't perfect, but I'm worth it
C
I'm alive, I deserve it
I been praying, I ain't playin'
I don't think you hear the words
Em
that I'm sayin'
I don't think you know the weight
on my shoulders
G
That gets heavier as I get older
Am
Callin' anybody, callin' anybody
"Can you hear me?"
C
I pray that you hear me
I pray that you hear me
(Chorus)
Em
Maybe I'll pray.. (Lord)
G
Pray.. (Lord),
Am
Maybe I'll pray..
C
never believed in you, no,
but I'm gonna..
Em
Won't you call me?
Can we have a one-to-one, please?
G
Let's talk about freedom
Am
Everyone prays in the end
C
Everyone prays in the end
Em
Won't you call me?
Can we have a one-to-one, please?
G
Let's talk about freedom
Am
Everyone prays in the end
C
Everyone prays in the end
(Chorus)
Em G
Oh, maybe I'm gonna pray,
Am
I'm gonna pray..
C
pray for a glimmer of hope
Em G
Maybe I'll pray.. pray..
Am
Maybe I'll pray
C
I've never believed in you, no,
Em
but I'm gonna pray..
