Testo I Pray - Ky-Mani Marley
Testo della canzone I Pray (Ky-Mani Marley), tratta dall'album Radio
Mmm mmm
Whoa oh
Whoa sinner man
Dear lord
I hang my head because I'm feeling low
Is there a peaceful place for me to go
Where I can just be free of my pressures and release my pains
Sip honey, burn buds and sing in the rain
It's been times I needed a shoulder but someone told me man don't cry
So I share my joys and never show my pains
Feeling trapped in the parallels of this crazy world
But trying to make better for my boys and my girls
And on my quest for change I turn to prayers
Lord guide me on this life I lead
Father I thank you for the breath I breathe
And I know that when it all boils down
And friends like foes turn their backs
You'll be there for me in my times of need
Let us pray
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
And then we search for change
While many walk the chalk lines of danger
I've seen love in the eyes of a perfect stranger
Leaves me to wonder when will this all come to an end
Will there ever be a day when men stop fighting against men
Ooh, tears hit the dirt, signify pressure and pain
Same place the tree grows and that's a sign of change
Everlasting love is up for the take
So if you ain't doing it for yourself do it for the children's sake
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
Whoa sinner man, where you gonna run to
You're deceiving the people while stealing their hope
Ambushed by the system with a knife to our throats
The breach, we're in danger for the words that we speak
Lord, please save me, the devil's trying to take my soul
Plead my cause, oh lord we'll be coming home
I'm in the dark, lead me to the light
Oh lord, be my shield, lead me through the fight
Oh lord, I pray, I pray
Lord, lord, I pray, I pray
Lord, I pray, I pray
When the going gets rough (you don't give up)
When the dirty get tough (you don't give up)
When it seems there's no way out (you don't give up)
And you feel you've lost your route (you don't give up)
And though life's been hard (you don't give up)
And it's still hard right now (you don't give up)
Just you understand friend (you don't give up)
You keep fighting back 'til the end (you don't give up)
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
Lord, please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me, shine on me lord
Please have mercy
Let your glory shine on me
Oh, shine on me, shine on me lord
Shine on me, shine on me lord
Shine on me, shine on me
Oh, lord, shine on me
Lord, shine on me
Lord, shine on me
