4AM

I don't pray, I don't pray like I used to

I can't wait, can't keep waiting on you

Say somethin', just say somethin'

Say somethin', just say somethin'

I don't pray, I don't pray like I

I can't wait, can't keep waiting on you

Say somethin', just say somethin'

Just say somethin', just say somethin'

Pray for the daylight, uh

Pray for the daylight

Pray for the day I

Find me the way—I'm

Lost and I can't find faith 'cause it ain't mine

Momma taught me how to pray

Pastor told me that I'm saved

But is that really what it takes?

I don't wanna be like, everybody that I see up on TV

I wanna love when I walk like I seen Christ

But it's hard when I watch what it be like

I don't see Christ

'Cause half the pastors in America

Don't want my family in America

And even Jesus was an immigrant

But don't nobody seem to give a

Whole house shook when the cops knocked

Whole house shook when the cops knocked

4AM and they want Pops

4AM and they want Pops

Daddy turned around said "farewell"

Momma cryin' on the stairwell

Little brother go look out the window, huh

"Why Daddy got handcuffs on him?

He ain't did nothin'

He ain't never did nothin'

All he ever did was work for his children

Pay the rent, a little income

Why they gotta take him?

Why they gotta break us?

I mean, I mean he drive the church bus without a license but

He was helpin' people get to church"

I haven't prayed as much as I prayed that year

Prayed as much as I prayed that year

Some days I pray that I conquer fear

Some nights I pray that I disappear

Momma told me we'd be okay

But I could tell that she's not okay

Chest pain and anxiety

She had trouble breathing the other day

I had trouble believing the pastor say

"God's got a plan in all of this"

As he smiled in a MAGA hat,

I had to question his common sense

I mean can't you see that we strugglin'

And you gon' hit me with Bible scripts?

Forget religion and politics man

I just wanna have my dad back

I'm prayin' for the daylight, uh

Prayin' for the daylight

Prayin' for the day I

Find me the way

I'm lost and I can't find faith, faith

Prayin' for the daylight, uh

Prayin' for the daylight

Prayin' for the day I

Find me the way

I'm lost and I can't find faith, faith
