manny tha maniac – pray lyrics

intro
(manny tha maniac) :

if i die before i wake..
pray the lord my soul to take..
got some things i would like to say..
all a n+gga ever wanted was to find a way…

verse 1
(manny tha maniac) :

i got trouble, anger, demons, doubt all around…
‘member back in school
yelling lost but now i’m found…
everyone doubts that i’m found…
even i, i’m lost but look what i found
discovered my sound, came out the underground..
started hanging with queens like a neighborhood in new york city…
and i started banging the queens
like a gavel at a court sitting… men!
(yo tuso nero this is crazy)
and i know it doesn’t honor god..
i’m just so sick of pretending to be who i’m not…
especially whеn tomorrow isn’t promised, it’s just here and now…
it’s difficult to bе a voice and have issues with no one to hear em out..
yeah
i could have seen school through, but i chose to do it different…
good news is i already knew all they would do was to start tripping…
experience is the best teacher, till she handing out pop quizzes
erryone starts hissing..
but i always got a plan like bart simpson
men
i see skeletons
d+mn skeletons
last night must’ve been halloween and i must’ve been high on medicine…
you slept in my closet and began to reap the benefits
trying out my clothes checking if it fits wake up to the sight
yell “what the h+ll is this?!”
but i got a pounding headache
so i’m thinking “men, to h+ll with this”
i gotta get me a new dose of medicine (medicine)
lay back pick my phone and text again
(text again)
certainly there’s an eerie feeling upsetting me (setting me)
and i’m questioning my essence once again
and now these emotions is depressing me
and you’re just too busy settling
you d+mn skeletons
how long you been sitting here
you prolly eaves dropping…
i’m listening to one more step
bryce he’s popping…
but deep down i feel like everything i ever did wasn’t even worth it…
feel like i’m not good enough, it’s why i keep working..
i been trying to say this, since the day the thought popped in…
i know the king is awake, but i hardly get any sleep
so i’m godly..
am i stupid for betting my future on my hobby…
there i let it out
i’m an insecure perfectionist
that seeks to stop the questioning
that drives me nuts
while i walk among pedestrians..
they say i’m well above my peers..
but i’m not above the pressure..
looking at the mirror…
“what makes me special?”
realized it ain’t the moments on stage or even the studio sessions…
cus even then i feel like i’m not doing the essentials…
but on the bright side…
i finally started relating to the raps that i write…
interlude (manny tha maniac) :
yeah, so like
i’m always stressing about like
“is this perfect?”
“is this not perfect?”
“should i use this?”
“should i not use this?”
“will they love it?”
“will it fail?”
“will it do this? or do that?” you know
so it’s always like a battle in my mind
about “is it good enough or not?”
and half the time it’s always not good enough to me
so….

part 2
(glowin ed) :

i gotta pray more than often these days
cus i hear the demons speaking often these days
take advantage of the road life (road life)
realize that this is real life (this is the real life)
drifting in and out
i’m barely conscious these days (i’m barely conscious these days)
they don’t want us these days

verse 2 (manny tha maniac) :

i can’t sleep
funny dreams keep me up all night…
i’m either back to school or i’m running for my life..
it’s why i hate sleeping alone at night and not without the music or the lights..
it’s why i’m using my charm to get the women to come over for the night
hold me close please holy ghost…
i’m playing games even i don’t know…
mama worried that i’ll hurt my soul
she text me say, “boy hurry home!”
now they wanna know who i represent..
now they doubting if i was heaven sent..
i gotta pray, cus i need strength
you just gonna sit there and watch me vent?
feel so lonely, even with the many women in my bed
why am i here!!!!!

bridge
(manny tha maniac) :

lord i been stressing…
i’m tired of praying only when i need blessings….
evil all around and it’s happening to test me…
you grab me by my hand and say never forget this… (x2)
outro
(kingpiece)

at times, i wonder why i stare at the ceiling at night
the days seems so wrong and the nights seem so long
i hear whispers in my sleep say “strengthen your will.”
what’s to come is much worse than what’s ever been
i dread this future that i just can’t comprehend
and i see it in my dreams; realizations that i just can’t win
and though i try, the voices drown me out and the demons haunt me down
despair, the fear i bear
i go down on my knees and i say “dear god please… above all, peace beyond that which i can conceive.”
