The Prayer

(album: A Kid Named Cudi - 2008)

Plain Pat what up?

My heart thump not from being nervous
Sometimes I'm thinking God made me special here on purpose
So all the while 'til I'm gone make my words important so
If I slip away, if I die today the last thing you remember won't
Be about some apple bottom jeans with the boots with the fur
Maybe how I dreamed of being free since my birth
Cursed but the demons I confronted would disperse
Have you ever heard of some shit so real
Beyond from the heart, from the soul you can feel

And if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take
But please don't cry, just know that I have made these songs for you
And if I die before I wake I pray the Lord my soul to take
'Cause I'm ready for a funeral

My mind runs I could never catch it even if I got a head start
God please help me I am feeling so alone wait
I don't need to worry 'cause I know the world'll feel this nigga
Blessing in disguise but I am not hiding who I am open your eyes bro
If I ever met you, I appreciate the love yo
Girls that I dated, it's OK I am not mad yo
Unless you stabbed me in the heart, no love ho, this shit is so ill
Play it back from the top if you recognize real

And if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take
But please don't cry, just know that I have made these songs for you
And if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take
'Cause I'm ready for a funeral
And if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take
So please don't cry, just know that I have made these songs for you
And if I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take
'Cause I'm ready for a funeral
(I'm ready for a funeral, I'm ready for a funeral)
