[Intro: Labrinth]

I pray for my enemies

I pray for my friends

I pray for the one who won't betray me again

Pray for the killers, I pray for the saints

Please, pray for me now

‘Cause, darling, I pray for you

I pray for you, mmm

I pray for you, mmm

I pray for you

Pray for you (You)

I, you, ooh


[Verse 1: Pusha T]

Rarely do you see the Phoenix rise from the ashes

Lightnin' struck twice on four classics

Self-preservation, we separate ourselves from the plastic

The ankle of my sweat still elastic, still do gymnastics

If Hov's still forever young

Then I'ma somersault backwards through these chapters

Land in thе soft-white, cook it till it's off-white

They quеstionin' my scorecard, hold it to a torch light

I hid it in the porch light, see, I had the foresight

My 9-1-1 was pullin' up to matchin' Porsche night, ooh

The married drug dealer, even named my son Brixx

He raps what he lives, so fuck the nanny, gon' sit

It's the grown man in me

Searchin' for the plug, that's the nomad in me

Still the X factor, that's the Rohan in me

Reluctantly a role model

That drowned in too many gold bottles

Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes

The past ten years, screamin', "Uno"

Then side step back into the duo

The kings of the Pyrex

I'm my brother's keeper if you listen and you dissect

All I talk is money if you listen to my dialect

Bitch, I shot "Grindin'" in my momma's momma's projects

I'm just being honest with you, how is that for context?

You can live forever when the shit you write is timeless

We gon' live forever 'cause the shit we write is timeless


[Bridge: Labrinth]

Oh

Oh, oh (Ooh)


[Verse 2: Malice]

Tell me what I missed

New designer drugs and emotions I don't get

I don't Hellcat, still paddle when I shift

Vietnam flashbacks, I get triggered by a sniff

Today's top fives only strengthenin' my myth

Belong on Rushmore just from chiselin' a brick

Still fightin' demons, see, that curse is now my gift

Secrets die with me, that's as deep as the abyss, that is no coincidence

When I was in the mix, opened up your nose like I'm cuttin' it with Vicks

Slavin' over stoves like I rub together sticks

Paved another road so my soul would coexist

But Heaven only knows, I won't dig another ditch

In a suit and tie, like you puttin' on the ritz

Three record deals show me ignorance was bliss

Tryna milk a game that is only two percent

X told you Hell is hot, I told you, "Repent"

Faith never waivered as I walked along the fence

Faith moves mountains, so what are you up against?

Watch my brother 'round you bitches, I know he pretends

I greet you with the love of God, that don't make us friends

I might whisper in his ear, "Bury all of them"

Light another tiki torch and carry it again

Back up on my high horse, it's chariots again

Put the ring back on her finger, marry it again


[Outro: Labrinth]

Oh

Oh, oh (Ooh)
