[Chorus]

God be calling me (hear my prayers)

And he said I got you covered (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said no need to wonder (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)

Then you will live forever

God be watching me (hear my prayers)

Watching me and all my brothers (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

Here for me 'till six feet under (hear my prayers, hеar my prayers)

And he said if you follow me thеn (hear my prayers)

Then you will live forever (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

[Verse 1]

Was just an awkward pre-teen

Was barely on B-team

Was tryna get those A's now

But no one sees my feelings (No)

So then I started kneeling kneeling on my knees there

And then I said father, father won't you please hear me

I'm begging for forgiveness, didn't mean to keep that weed

Last time I went to church I said I'd stop sinning

The devil said do it (yeah)

Be like the cool kids (yeah)

Don't act all stupid (yeah)

Take one or two hits (yeah)

My body and my mind high felt strange

To the father, I am sorry

Bring me out this place

[Chorus]

God be calling me (hear my prayers)

And he said I got you covered (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said no need to wonder (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)

Then you will live forever

God be watching me (hear my prayers)

Watching me and all my brothers (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

Here for me 'till six feet under (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)

Then you will live forever (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

[Verse 2]

School cop rolling by

He looked me in the eye

Asked me a couple questions

Those kind that I knew he wouldn't have considered if the color of my skin was a little more white

What a time to live in this world full of hatred

Poppin' those tides for the fame

And stopping the dark skinned kids for the sake other people's safety without a reason and say it's not racist

Going on rants 'cause this hates in my heart

Got evil thoughts so I'm turning to God

Unholy acts I've been doing a lot

Got 'em BA's but cops taking the shots

Father forgive they know not what they do

Driven insane and then shoot up a school

Lord I'm grateful I'm not 'part of that too

But I still pray for all those have been in those shoes

Lord please hear my prayers for what I've done and what I failed to do

Lord please hear my prayers for all the kids and the life they go through

Put my time put my faith up above

Better life better days soon to come

Take one day at a time (yeah)

Please stay by my side here

[Chorus]

God be calling me (hear my prayers)

And he said I got you covered (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said no need to wonder (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)

Then you will live forever

God be watching me (hear my prayers)

Watching me and all my brothers (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

Here for me 'till six feet under (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)

And he said if you follow me then (hear my prayers)

Then you will live forever (hear my prayers, hear my prayers)
