Pray - Sam Smith

Written by：Sam Smith/James Napier/Timothy Mosley/Darryl Pearson/Larrance Dopson/Jose Valasquez

I'm young and I'm foolish

I make bad decisions

I block out the news

Turn my back on religion

Don't have no degree

I'm somewhat naive

I've made it this far on my own

But lately that sh*t ain't been getting me higher

I lift up my head and the world is on fire

There's dread in my heart and fear in my bones

I just don't know what to say

Maybe I'll pray pray

Maybe I'll pray

I've never believed in you no

But I'm gonna pray

You won't find me in church

No

Reading the bible

No

I am still here and I'm still your disciple

I'm down on my knees

I'm begging you please

I'm broken alone and afraid

I'm not a saint

I'm more of a sinner

I don't want to lose

But I fear for the winners

When I try to explain

The words run away

That's why I am stood here today

And I'm gonna pray pray

Maybe I'll pray

Pray for a glimmer of hope

Maybe I'll pray pray

Maybe I'll pray

I've never believed in you no

But I'm gonna

Won't you call me

Can we have a one to one please

Let's talk about freedom

Everyone prays in the end

Everyone prays in the end

Won't you call me

Can we have a one to one please

Let's talk about freedom

Everyone prays in the end

Everyone prays in the end

Oh and I'm gonna pray

I'm gonna pray

I'm gonna pray

Pray for a glimmer of hope

Maybe I'll pray pray

Maybe I'll pray

I've never believed in you no

But I'm gonna pray
