Pray

[00:00.09] Pray for the day, your pain goes away
[00:04.61] And for the time, wasted on goodbye
[00:10.02] Can't get back the time, but you stay on my mind
[00:15.40] Forgive me for the lies, and all the tears you've cried
[00:20.83] So I pray, every night for a better day
[00:23.65] It's like the world's Ike and I'm Annie Mae
[00:26.30] But ain't no bitch here, though I shed so many tears for ya
[00:29.02] Only cause a nigga care for ya
[00:30.82] I'm talking 'bout the world over, wake me when it's all over
[00:34.45] I don't know if it gets any colder, or any warmer
[00:37.13] I'm weak, but I'm getting stronger
[00:38.96] Forever young, but I'm getting older
[00:41.60] Lend me your shoulder, but I don't wanna cry on it
[00:44.39] But at times I feel a need to lie on it; closure
[00:48.05] And some things will never change
[00:49.88] I could be last, but still way ahead of the game
[00:52.59] I do my bid to go hot like 'Pac like Wayne
[00:55.25] Like Rick like Ray even mo'fuckin' James
[00:58.84] I'm just sayin', love is pain
[01:00.64] And all I ask of y'all is keep Rule in your prayers:
[01:04.24] Pray for the day, your pain goes away
[01:08.94] And for the time, wasted on goodbye
[01:14.38] Can't get back the time, but you stay on my mind
[01:19.74] Forgive me for the lies, and all the tears you've cried
[01:25.11] Hope to see you when I get there
[01:27.07] Mile high heavenly skies will be a breath of fresh air
[01:29.72] G5, nobody on my plane cause it's private
[01:33.32] On my way to St. Elsewhere
[01:35.14] I swear, I know they say the good die young and
[01:38.76] I guess that's why I'm so scared
[01:40.57] But I refuse to die and I won't die
[01:43.29] Until history records my greatness; Amen
[01:46.88] I see angels, I see demons
[01:49.62] I hear laughter, people screaming
[01:52.32] Makes me wonder what's my reason for being here
[01:55.98] And so I'm kneeling
[01:56.88] Pray for the day, your pain goes away
[02:02.20] And for the time, wasted on goodbye
[02:07.60] Can't get back the time, but you stay on my mind
[02:13.16] Forgive me for the lies, and all the tears you've cried
[02:18.53] Sing a prayer for me
[02:20.36] But don't nobody shed a tear for me, I'm dying inside as it is if
[02:23.93] Lonely is the way of the walk then
[02:26.65] I'm practically lying in a coffin
[02:29.35] How often do you tell someone you love 'em?
[02:32.08] I bet not as often as you say you love summer
[02:34.77] And it's gonna be the coldest winter ever while I'm locked up
[02:37.56] See y'all in 18, one love and fuck fame
[02:40.27] Pray for the day, your pain goes away
[02:44.76] And for the time, wasted on goodbye
[02:50.12] Can't get back the time, but you stay on my mind
[02:55.51] Forgive me for the lies, and all the tears you've cried
[03:02.85]
