Текст песни

I pray my soul to keep.

Won't let no devil get over me.

Going through the war to find my peace,

And I ain't walking away.

Walking away

And I ain't walking away. (Walking away)

Walking away

A penny for your thoughts, but it's costing the soul

Who's controlling the game?

The dice hasn't been rolled.

Flames are getting fed,

So who's really involved?

When will it be time

For all of us to evolve?

Cost of living is the reaper—

Pay with our lives.

Politicians playing chess,

But we're the pawns in their lies.

Talking shit on the news,

And it's frying our minds.

Praying to the Most High,

And forever we try.

We have leaders come and go,

And most are never able.

Don't be fooled how they appear,

'Cause the devil was once an angel.

Tricked and distracted,

Scrolling each night.

Celeb gossip covers up

What's going on in Palestine.

Oh my—

How much more can a heart take?

I see sons, mothers, and daughters

Get slaughtered and raped.

A young child be forced to see fate.

So tell me who's setting it straight?

And If history repeats,

Why do we never learn?

They auction off the truth—

We're sold but never whole.

They keep us in the dark,

But the cracks still show.

All in this together,

But we're still on our own.

They promise us change

But still pocket notes.

Families can't eat,

But they buy new boats.

Common suits when debate,

But all I'm hearing is jokes

While us people stay broke.

Can't breathe through the smoke.

I pray my soul to keep.

Won't let no devil get over me.

Going through the war to find my peace,

And I ain't walking away.

And I ain't walking away. (Walking away)

What's changed since the chains and whips?

It's new bars, same cage and scripts.

Same hate, different year, same tricks.

System's rigged, and they profit when we slip.

Still a victim of abuse,

And my melanin's light.

Gets questioned why.

But we're the same, you and I.

Skin gets branded a weapon,

An existence of crime.

But the last in line.

Criminalize my tone.

Meanwhile, they steal culture

And call it their own.

It's a world where our values are debated and sold,

But we rise and grow, turn struggle to gold.

Tell us patience is power,

But we've been waiting hours

While they build empires

If history's the teacher,

We learned to survive.

But survival ain't enough—

It's justice to thrive.

They burn bridges and blame us for the gap.

They close borders then profit off the map.

Unity's the weapon, and they fear that attack,

So feed us division to keep the house intact.

From the blocks to flats,

It's a cycle we spin.

Poverty's the dealer,

We dream of mansions,

But we're living in bins.

Still, fire inside is where hope begins.

This world's getting scary.

Devils really playing tricks.

Lord, I hope you hear me.

Tell me this isn't it.

How else can we live?

When the snow falls,

There's more Franklins than saints.

If there's hope if there's love,

Then Why can't we say

When there's murder in the streets?

Too much blood pours,

When you can't afford more.

But they really got us praying

Down on all fours—

Screaming and preaching,

"Can you help us, Lord?"

When you can't afford more.

But they really got us praying

Down on all fours—

Screaming and preaching,

"Can you help us, Lord?"

I pray my soul to keep.

Won't let no devil get over me.

Going through the war to find my peace,

And I ain't walking away.

And I ain't walking away. (Walking away)

I pray my soul to keep.

Won't let no devil get over me.

Going through the war to find my peace,

And I ain't walking away.

And I ain't walking away. (Walking away)
