Young Bernie - Pray (Bonus Track)

Secrets take me to the grave
Just pray I make it through the day
I don't got a stake in thinkin bout tomorrow
Living in things I can't change, but the lessons I'll borrow
That's while I smile for the sickies, there my favorite pick me up
Testify the toxic tales I swore I'd cover shut, yeah
Secure in my foundations but still I'm sick as fuck
Been around for awhile, still it just takes one cup
One shot, one pill, one line, one attempt to fill
A void of vile shame and agony, this demon stabbing me
Never abandon me, every corner of my head
Preachin lies in my own voice, praying for just a taste

Just stay, on line I'm barely holding
Sitting on my hand that way I'm knowing
These voices can't win the day,
I'm not goin back no matter what so
Just pray, give me a hand for just a moment
I'll give ya my being, but I think I sold it
Off with the rest of my mind
But its a new life for me, and I'm not dying today

Never been known for my patience
I want it, need the healing, just let me feel good right now
I'm so sick of coughing up my sins, shivering in the summer
Purged a hundred slippery slopes, yeah what a bummer
The cost of low living never fit my style
Still got a pile of broken records centered in my denial
Sitting still as I spiral
perceptions peaked as my lies stretch for miles
Pile up my burdens for something more certain
Parting the curtains yeah I'm a good person

Just stay, on line I'm barely holding
Sitting on my hand that way I'm knowing
These voices can't win the day,
I'm not goin back no matter what so
Just pray, give me a hand for just a moment
I'll give ya my being, but I think I sold it
Off with the rest of my mind
But its a new life for me, and I'm not dying today

Praying that my maker holds me down
Bailing out my demons makes me drown
Sleeping on the dreams that fall like leaves
Hoping one day I'll be exactly what your seeking
Praying that my maker holds me down
Bailing out my demons makes me drown
Sleeping on the dreams that fall like leaves
Hoping one day I'll be exactly what your seeking
