Pray For Me

Ooooh

Hullo maama hullo maama
Tears are dripping as I′m writing this letter
This body could be worse but could be better
Maama I am writing to you from a jail cell

I remember when I was a little boy
When my problems were all about toys
I was to be a doctor is what I promised you
To make money and take care of you

Guilty is now all upon me
Because I'm not the man you wanted me to be
I′m here in a prison doing my bid
Understand some choices were not up to me

Don't you cry no more
I'm a grown man and that′s just how life goes
Just pray for me maama
Be there for me
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

Pray for me
And let your prayers keep me strong
(Keep me strong)
Pray for me
Mama that′s all I need
(All I need)

Pray for me (mama)
And let your prayers keep me strong
(Mama let them keep me strong)
Pray for me (ooooh mama)
Mama that's all I need
(Mama that′s all I need)

I'm so strong this is like a metal of iron
Maama your son is an over comer
Sometimes I feel like it′s useless living
Then I close my eyes and I see you smiling

I will never hurt you anymore
Maama now I know
I'm your fresh blood and bone
I know how it feels when your loved ones are gone
So I′mma do everything right when I'm home

I'm also taking bid classes
In the pre-test I came out in first place
Pray for me mama in glasses
I don′t wanna come to you in a casket

Don′t you cry no more
I'm a grown man and that′s just how life goes
Just pray for me maama
Be there for me
As I walk through the valley of shadow of death

Pray for me
And let your prayers keep me strong
(Keep me strong)
Pray for me
Mama that's all I need
(All I need)

Pray for me (mama)
And let your prayers keep me strong
(Mama let them keep me strong)
Pray for me (ooooh mama)
Mama that′s all I need
(Mama that's all I need)

Dear God
Never ever let me fail
Let my sleeps look back with a story to tell
I′ve been through hell and been through cells
My life a coffin but please don't hammer the nails

Don't make this fame thing get in my head
I wanna stay forever humble till my casket is laid
I did fail time but I never changed this
With me forever in my African ways

I know the life from the back of the fence
When all you did is strike but never given a chance
How can I dream when life got the clock in my face
Before my dreams come true of catching a case

Form me a place with no discrimination for race
Where we can live without struggle and pain
Can I escape pain?
Not because I′m not brave
But I′ve been so strong for so long
To suffer again

Pray for me
And let your prayers keep me strong
(Keep me strong)
Pray for me
Mama that's all I need
(All I need)

Pray for me (mama)
And let your prayers keep me strong
(Mama let them keep me strong)
Pray for me (ooooh mama)
Mama that′s all I need
(Mama that's all I need)

Ooooh
Ooooh
