NF – Let Em Pray Lyrics
NF:
Oh, let ’em pray
See ’em prayin’ on my downfall…
Delegating isn’t one of my strong suits
I’ve seen it take a toll and be harmful
I’ve seen what it can do when I got both of my arms full
But still continue to pile more on my back though
I learned at a young age if you want to do something impactful
That you gotta be willing to sacrifice and really go after it
With everything that you have
‘Cause if you don’t, it ain’t ever gonna happen
Listen, gotta prevail, gotta excel
Think I hit my peak, no, I just started climbing the hill
Kill or be killed, well, if that’s the way that you feel
Hope you know you about to get the raw end of the dеal
I need to mediate, I ain’t got no room to grow
I would nevеr say (No!), conversations with the Lord should be every day (Every day)
Reconnecting with my core, keep my head up straight
Planning on my downfall
Let ’em pray.
Résumé (Résumé)
Check the résumé (Résumé)
Set the pace, I don’t hesitate
Yeah, just get it done, let me demonstrate (Demonstrate)
Demonstrate (Demonstrate)
Demonstrate (Demonstrate)
Let it soak in, let it resonate
Blood, sweat, and tears on the 808 (808)
See ’em prayin’ on my downfall
(Let ’em pray).
[Chorus:]
Oh, let ’em pray (Let ’em pray)
Let ’em—, let ’em pray (Let ’em pray)
See ’em prayin’ on my downfall
Ay, let ’em pray (Let ’em pray)
Yeah, let ’em—, let ’em pray (Let ’em pray)
Let ’em—, let ’em pray
Ay, see ’em prayin’ on my downfall
Let ’em pray.
Sentimental, influential
Every step I’ve ever taken in the wrong direction
Help me get to where I am today
And lead to monumental moments in my life
That I would not have got to experience
If I had let the mistakes that I made rob me of my full potential
Life will test you, don’t forget to remember the fundamentals (Woo)
I gotta get back to those
Be surprised what you find when you climb out your comfort zone
I get uncomfortable when I get too comfortable
You corner me and that’s all she wrote
I’m in that headspace, I’ve never been before
You don’t bring nothing to my life, then I exit yours
Let’s get right to it, yeah, I ain’t with the back-and-forth
You either with me or against me, a easy choice
The moment I’m building, I can feel it
My resilience cannot hide it, can’t conceal it
Made me suffer some, but also, made me brilliant
Passed my brilliance down and teach my children
Life is precious, life is treacherous, life is filled with dead end roads
Keep on pushin’, keep on healin’
See you prayin’ on my downfall
Go on, keep on prayin’
God ain’t listening to you.
