Stay Prayed Up

That's what I kept on saying not too long ago

It seems like I was living in the darkest hole

My sadness and my anger start to take control

I had a lot of stuff weighing on me y'all

I shed a lot of tears that you didn't see, no

But I couldn't let grief consume me

Cause I got a little girl depending on me

It can't rain forever

The sun's got to shine again

I remember that old saying

So I kept praying and you should do the same my friend

I stay prayed up, that gets me by

That's how I made it through my darkest times

Yeah I'm a sinner and that's no lie

Thank God my prayers are heard cause He knows I try

Yeah I stay prayed up, yes I stay prayed up

See the only way I made it through my pain is through God's favor

Why me Lord

How am I supposed to raise these kids alone

I do the best I can to keep a happy home

It's hard to do it now, my better half is gone

Got a lot of eyes looking at me y'all

Judging every move that I'm making y'all

I'm just trying to do the best that I can

But it's hard cause I'm just an ordinary man

It can't rain forever

The sun's gonna shine again

I remember the old saying

So I just keep praying and you should do the same my friend

And I stay prayed up, that gets me by

That's how I made it through my darkest times

Yeah I'm a sinner and that's no lie

Thank God my prayers are heard cause He knows I try

Yeah I stay prayed up, yes I stay prayed up

You see the only way I made it through is through God's favor

See I stay prayed up, I stay prayed up

You see the only way I made it through my pain is through God's favor

I stay prayed up, that gets me by

That's how I made it through my darkest times

Yeah I'm a sinner and that's no lie

Thank God my prayers are heard cause He knows I try

Yeah I stay prayed up, yes I stay prayed up

Oh I made it through because of God's favor
