Ciara's Prayer

(albüm: All Monsters Are Human - 2020)

How could you, you
Take my last shot at love? Oh
When you knew, knew
I barely had enough, but I still gave it up
I'm just tryna figure out, baby
Should I cut my hair and pull back on the crazy?
It's just you, not two, you don't think about me
And time only knows the truth

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray he won't cheat on me
Don't wanna make no more mistakes
Them good ones never show they face
Boy, you make it hard to sleep
Broke my heart, but it won't bleed
Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray)

Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
I just wanted you to love me (Love me)
And not give a fuck about anything else, no, no
'Cause ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)

Wonder what it was, wonder what she prayed for
Something I ain't had before, maybe I need to do some more
So I had to switch it up on you, find somebody new
He been lying all the time, all the same shit as you
I'm just tryna figure out lately
Is there another bitch or am I going crazy?
It's just you, not two, you don't think about me
And time only knows the truth

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray that I'm not being naive
They say that all men don't cheat
That's some shit I don't believe
Boy, you make it hard to sleep
Broke my heart, but it won't bleed
Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray)

Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
I just wanted you to love me (Love me)
And not give a fuck about anything else, no, no
'Cause ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)

I know you up there, I know you hear my prayer, save me
I just want a man who gon' love me, putting nothing else above me
Someone who knows how to rub me
Put me to sleep right after he loves me
I'ma keep praying and waiting 'til I got one (I gotta pray)

Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
Ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
I just wanted you to love me (Love me)
And not give a fuck about anything else, no, no
'Cause ain't no future anyway, pray the prayer Ciara prayed (I gotta pray, pray, pray)
