[Intro: Von Won]

All the ups and downs

The tests and trials that I've been through

I wouldn't change a thing (Pray for me, pray for me)

'Cause it led me straight to You

No matter how far I ran

You kept chasin' after me

Turned this catastrophe into a masterpiece (Pray for me, pray for me)


[Chorus: Spec]

Man, how your heart so cold in the summer?

Uh, I only paint my life at night

I'm scared of what I'll find when the sun up

Lord, pray for me (Pray for me, pray for me)

What You gon' do with this canvas?

Look how bad I messed up

And then one day I gave You the brush

Sat and watched You make a masterpiece from nothing

Lord, I need You to (Pray for mе)

I need You to (Pray for me)

Yeah


[Verse 1: Von Won]

We arе works of art

Jesus, You just had to work on my heart, yeah, yeah, yeah

Man of God from the start

Only rebelled 'cause I was faking a part, yeah, yeah, yeah (Pray for me, pray for me)

I ain't know my identity, no good influence in my vicinity

So I ran the streets, ran the beef

05, handling heat, plan to squeeze, oh my (Pray for me, pray for me)

Drugs had a tight grip

Drank in styrofoam cups what I sip, yeah, yeah, yeah

Swisher sweets rolled in my lips

Exhale the smoke that made my mind trip, yeah, yeah, yeah (Pray for me, pray for me)

Who knew that You would chase me down?

Your endless love, it bade me come

My reality went from tragedy to the Master's peace (Pray for me, pray for me)


[Chorus: Spec]

Man, how your heart so cold in the summer?

Uh, I only paint my life at night

I'm scared of what I find when the sun up

Lord, pray for me (Pray for me, pray for me)

What You gon' do with this canvas?

Look how bad I messed up

And then one day I gave You the brush

Sat and watched You make a masterpiece from nothing

Lord, I need You to (Pray for me)

I need You to (Pray for me)

Yeah


[Verse 2: Dee Black]

Yeah

In the hands of the Master I find peace

In the middle of disaster, I managed to find belief

Knowing God was in the midst of the storm when He said, "Cease"

Faith to Him, kept goin', God is showing, He said, "Leap"

My grief became relief

My lease became complete

From a wolf became a sheep

Set me free when He paid the fee

In blood, He painted me on a canvas

A bloody tree

Him in anguish and misery 'til He vanquished the sin in me

Rose in three, told the old to flee (Old to flee)

He's molding me into a work of Art for all to see (For all to see)

I got some flaws, far from perfect, I ain't called to be (I ain't called to be)

At the least a masterpiece, that's what He's calling me (that's what He's calling me)

Picture perfect, a perfect picture with woven Scriptures

More than a conqueror, highly favored, a perfect mixture

Interceding, He interceding, I enter sea, walking on that water

In order to bring change

He gave me more than just a quarter

That's a hundred, I was running

He pursued

How was I one that He would use when He wanted

Would I refuse in church

Would I abuse, had to choose life or death

Every breath I recollect with every step that in my mess that's where we met

Called me blessed and never left


[Chorus: Spec]

Man, how your heart so cold in the summer?

Uh, I only paint my life at night

I'm scared of what I find when the sun up

Lord, pray for me (Pray for me, pray for me)

What You gon' do with this canvas?

Look how bad I messed up

And then one day I gave You the brush

Sat and watched You make a masterpiece from nothing

Lord, I need You to (Pray for me)

I need You to (Pray for me)

Yeah


[Verse 3: 5ive]

Way before 116, I been a sistine

Get it? A work of Art, but still so far from pristine

And this fiend, knew no limits of doing wrong

Who could have known I was a masterpiece?

I used to eat all alone

Mind gone off the drugs and the Henny

And when it came to sinnin', please believe your boy did plenty

Spent many nights on the road to destruction

Smoking lusting and cussing

Deserving death and all of its repercussions

I was good for nothing

Or at least that's what they used to say

But see them words carry weight, and I felt the pressure everyday

Then I watched my auntie fade away and lose her life to cancer

And all the while she kept telling me Craig Christ the answer

And she the realest Christian I ever knew

I watched her pray 'til she died, that's how I know it's true

So I put my hope in You

A hopeless fool is what I used to be

But somehow You turned it all around and now You're using me

I'm nothing like I used to be

And I know the devil mad at me

'Cause in the midst of my depravity, You gave me back my faculties

I should of been a casualty, so I can't serve You casually

'Cause masterfully, You can turn this catastrophe to a masterpiece


[Outro]

Lamontt Blackshire

You made that?

Pray for me, pray for me

Pray for me, pray for me
