Samm Henshaw - Thoughts and Prayers

Hello stranger
The girl's in danger
But you won't fight hard enough to save her
Said it ain't your issue
'Cause it ain't your sister
It ain't your missus
You don't get it do ya?
'Cause if that were me I would of ooh
Maybe I would have thought for a second
And said maybe I shouldn't
There's blood on my hands after all, oh God
There's bloodon my hands after all

Bow my head said my prayers
I'm the good one ain't I?
Wash my hands of all my sins
I'm the good guy ain't I?
If everyone were like me
Could that be the change I'd like to see?
Ain't I good?
Ain't I right?
Did I try?

But if I care
I'd give more than thoughts and prayers
The burdens more than yours to bear
But egos on my side
Am I as good as I say if I try

Do we try?
We try
We try
Do we try?
We try
We try

Hello partner
The worlds got problems
But you won't work hard enough to solve them
'Cause you hate Christians
And you hate Muslims
And you might kill over race and color
If that happened to someone that I knew then I would've
Probably laughed at his race jokes when I shouldn't
'Cause there's blood on my hands after all
Guess there's blood on my hands after all

Bow my head, said my prayers
I'm the good one ain't I?
Wash my hands of all my sins
I'm the good guy ain't I
If everyone were like me
Could that be the change I'd like to see?
Ain't I good?
Ain't I right?
Did I try?

But if I care
I'd give more than thoughts and prayers
The burdens more than yours to bear
But egos on my side
Am I as good as I'm saying if I won't try?

Ooh-ooh, we try
We try
We try
Do we try?
We try
We try
We try
Is it ever good enough?
We try
We try
We try
Am I as good as I say if I won't try?

Bow my head, said my prayers (Oh, ah, ah, ah ah, ah)
(Wash my hands of all my sins)
I wash it off, I wash it off, yeah (Ooh)
Ooh, yeah
Uh
