King of August - Pray Another Day Lyrics

Take my hand I'm having troubles tryna carry all this weight
I pray the lord will grant me understanding things that I can't change
Alleviate pain, knowing I'm the reason trouble comes my way
Ask for another day, I ask for another day

Running through different problems
Oblivious or acknowledged
I move and that shadow follows
It's startin' to feel like the cycle
My life could've been so different when 2015 had ended
Probably been married with children, ironic my brother lived it
His wedding was the first one that I attended
The beauty in it is what I questioned I had missed
But what I realized when the vows commenced
Forgiveness is something that id never commit
And that's all it is
I beat myself to bits for other people when they ain't gave a shit
And I put that on the chin
Internalize it til my love ones try to pry and emphasize that I got somethings on my mind
And I ain't got the time
Or the lack of pride to
Burden you with issues
Especially when they're mine
So leave me to my drugs and my prayer, and hope I wake to see another AM

Take my hand I'm having troubles tryna carry all this weight
I pray the lord will grant me understanding things that I can't change
Alleviate pain, knowing I'm the reason trouble comes my way
Ask for another day, I ask for another day

And the cycle continues
Shits suspenseful
This point the xanax ain't my biggest my issue
Throw a lil opioid addiction on a mile high shit list
And the result of Einstein would be inconclusive
My momma a fuckin' therapist, I can't tell that lady shit
I got a gripe with expressing issues that I know they can't fix
I got strife with some actions I'm too ashamed to admit
Saying it as straight as it gets
Like there's a brace on the shit
Best advice she gave me was slow up, put some breaks on the shit
They tryna close my studio cause I ain't makin' the rent
So, How can I chill when I just battle guilt, like
Fuck it never mind, I won't baffle you with cause
And I ain't got the time
Or the lack of pride to
Burden you with issues
Especially when they're mine
So leave me to my drugs and my prayer, and hope I wake to see another AM

Take my hand I'm having troubles tryna carry all this weight
I pray the lord will grant me understanding things that I can't change
Alleviate pain, knowing I'm the reason trouble comes my way
Ask for another day, I ask for another day
