[Verse 1]
I had a talk with God the other night
And it felt different than the other times
It’s heavy on me, all the hurt, the lies
Oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Throwing all that dirt, yeah, all up on my name
Shoot me down with words, yeah, I could do the same
I always try to take the high road, I do
But I’m only human
Even though it’s hard

[Chorus]
I’m gonna pray for you (I’ll pray, I’ll pray)
It’s the only thing I can do
My peace of mind’s bulletproof (I’ll pray, I’ll pray)
So I can’t hold on to you
Why’d I let you take up space in the first place?
My mistake, turn the other way
Don’t wanna have no heart full of hat
otta shake it off, baby, just pray

[Verse 2]
I’ve heard it said that people come and go
To show you something that you didn’t know
Now it’s so clear how it all unfolded
Oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Throwing all that dirt, yeah, all up on my name
You’re the one that’s hurt, yeah, but I’m not the same
I always try to take the high road, I do
But I’m only human
Even though it’s hard

[Chorus]

I’m gonna pray for you (I’ll pray, I’ll pray)
It’s the only thing I can do
My peace of mind’s bulletproof (I’ll pray, I’ll pray)
So I can’t hold on to you
Why’d I let you take up space in the first place?
My mistake, turn the other way
Don’t wanna have no heart full of hat
otta shake it off, baby, just pray
Two hands up, I’ll be okay
Ain’t gonna let you ruin my day
Don’t wanna have no heart full of hat
otta shake it off, baby, just pray

[Bridge]
I wish you well, but from way over here
See, I’m just protecting my own atmosphere
Wonder if you’re ever gonna change
But either way

[Chorus]
I’m gonna pray for you
It’s the only thing I can do
My peace of mind’s bulletproof
So I can’t hold on to you
Why’d I let you take up space in the first place? (I’ll pray, I’ll pray)
My mistake, turn the other way
Don’t wanna have no heart full of hat
otta shake it off, baby, just pray
Two hands up, I’ll be okay (I’ll pray, I’ll pray)
Ain’t gonna let you ruin my day
Don’t wanna have no heart full of hat
otta shake it off, baby, just pray

[Outro]
I’ll pray, I’ll pray
I’ll pray, I’ll pray
