Текст пісні
My heart is heavy bout making changes upon this planet
So many people living their lives severely damaged
From drug habit to victims overcoming molestation
To people across the world dealing with starvation
Every time the boys in blue pull me over, my heart is racing
I don't wanna be another victim to the demonstration
To show this cold, cold world. No, I'm not mistaken
We still dealing with racism and segregation
It's clear to see that things ain't what it should be
But we ignore the facts and let it continue to be
Lord, I pray that you build me up to where I need to be
Up in the church or in the streets, planting some seeds
It's a lot of people around my way that's losing hope
Father, I pray they realize that you're the true hope
And times can really get hard, yeah, that's a known fact
But I pray they turn to you to get there life back on track
Lord I pray ya hearing me now
I pray that ya hearing me now
I pray ya hearing me now
Lord I pray ya hearing me now
I pray that ya hearing me now
I pray ya hearing me now
Lord I pray ya hearing me now
I pray that ya hearing me now
I pray ya hearing me now
Lord I pray ya hearing me now
I'm praying for some changes now
Know how I sit and wonder sometimes, then ask why
More evil than good, are my petitions reaching the sky
We a people hungry for hope
And pain makes it hard to cope
So on the cares of this world, we just choke
It gets hard to keep our focus
We'd rather carry our burdens than cast them down
We forget who really wearing the crown
No doubt days tougher and colder
It's hard to raise a child, minimum wage
But it's a deeper wage that got us all caged
The price has been paid, but we still drinking from our own wells
That's dry, empty of life. Reject the true hop
That's truly given us life
So I pray for our hearts to be turned to his sight
