I Just Pray - Bryson Gray

(C 17)

If you don't like me, why you follow me, then?

I never run from nothin', that's the lion within

I make you uncomfortable 'cause you got pride in yo' sin

Pick a side, God or the world, who you ridin' with, then?

They don't like my hat 'cause it say "Keep America Great"

And the right, they hate me too 'cause I'm exposin' them fakes

Y'all be scared, but I'd rather cut the head off the snakes

Justifyin' wickedness gon' lead you right to the lake

Women got careers but they should be takin' care of the homes

And men supposed to provide, yeah, you gon' tell me I'm wrong

Two parents workin', but how about the life that you give?

You send yo' babies to the system, then who raisin' yo' kids?

And the Bible says that you supposed to show 'em the way

Is that why seventeen percent of Gen Z is gay?

Never mind, though, 'cause y'all gon' hate whatever I say

And when somethin' normalized, then you gon' think it's okay, ayy

So I pray

I just pray

'Cause y'all gon' hate whatever I say

All I can do is pray

All I can do is pray

Ooh, they pushin' LGBT in the schools

Christians scared to push back, so they just sing the blues

It's a real effort to make all of our children confused

And it's only two genders, they make you think you can choose

It's all over social media and all over the news

Take Romans 13 out of context so you follow the rules

Really, they don't wanna fight back, they use that verse to excuse

Their shortcomings, and that's the reason that we always gon' lose

Wait, ayy, that ain't bein' Christlike

He kept it a hundred, I don't know what y'all think Christ like

Look what He told unrepentant cities, oh, that was light, right?

What's wrong with sayin' wrong is wrong and sayin' right's right?

We supposed to show 'em the way

But everybody let emotions get in the way

Never mind, though, 'cause y'all gon' hate whatever I say

You scared to call out sin, so you gon' say it's okay, ayy

So I pray

I just pray

But y'all gon' hate whatever I say

All I can do is pray
