In ¡¯89 they threw me under the water
|
In the name of the Holy Spirit, Son and the Father
|
From this day forward I would always have a partner
|
Someone to lean on as the times got harder
|
But as the days got darker
|
I began to question everything I was a part of
|
Why the preacher always driving something so nice
|
And why the leader of the choir ain¡¯t got no wife
|
So many things that didn¡¯t flow right
|
The ones who loved the most have always been the lowlifes
|
So I expanded on my own route
|
Went to find the cause our affair accountant was talking about
|
When I first quit pork it made my mother shout
|
Did miss pepperoni? Yo, no doubt
|
But I held strong, I was so devout
|
A little man tryina figure it all out
|
|
I pray for love, I pray for peace
|
I pray for you, I pray for me
|
I pray for the living, I pray for the deceased
|
I pray for the people that¡¯s living in the streets
|
I pray for my friends, pray for my enemies
|
I pray for free healthcare and clean energy
|
Cause this my prayer, I say it every day
|
I pray for patience while we working towards a better way
|
|
Been around the world, travelled many oceans
|
I kept a clear heart and my mind open
|
Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines
|
One with nature, one with the divine
|
Find your god, find your peace
|
Find your truth and your beliefs
|
Weather you believe in God or the tooth fairy
|
Burn Brother Ali or watch Tyler Perry
|
Me, I grew up inside the Baptist church
|
But I still do yoga because I think it works
|
I believe in ancient aliens and in Jesus
|
I believe in helping mother Earth cause she needs us
|
I believe in understanding and tolerance
|
I believe in government without the politics
|
I believe you shouldn¡¯t place your faith in one man
|
And remember the creator has a master plan
|
|
I pray for love, I pray for peace
|
I pray for you, I pray for me
|
I pray for the living, I pray for the deceased
|
I pray for the people that¡¯s living in the streets
|
I pray for my friends, pray for my enemies
|
I pray for free healthcare and clean energy
|
Cause this my prayer, I say it every day
|
I pray for patience while we working towards a better way
|
|
I pray for love, I pray for peace
|
I pray for you, I pray for me
|
I pray for the living, I pray for the deceased
|
I pray for the people that¡¯s living in the streets
|
I pray for my friends, pray for my enemies
|
I pray for free healthcare and clean energy
|
Cause this my prayer, I say it every day
|
I pray for patience while we working towards a better way
