Pray For Me

**[Intro]** Tell 'em pray for me… Yeah I came too far to turn around now They call me Bobby God knows the road I had to travel **[Verse 1]** Tell 'em pray for me, I'm still trying to find my way God put certain people in my life at the perfect place I watched legends fall, watched the culture lose its innocence Made me question where I'm from and what we're representing Thinking 'bout the ones who never got to see the future All that talent in the ground, all that greatness we were losing Every city got a story, every corner got a scar Everybody wants the crown till they realize what it costs Gold chains, black shades, looking like a movie Everybody talks success, nobody talks what it took me I was young with a notebook trying to turn pain into art Now I'm staring at the skyline wondering how far is too far Mama, forgive me, I'm just trying to make a living I know chasing every dollar can distract you from your vision I want the house, want the cars, want the family protected But if I lose myself chasing it, was the dream worth accepting? **[Hook — Melodic]** Lord, keep your hand on me While I'm chasing everything I dreamed I want the world, but I don't wanna lose my soul Gold around my neck, but my heart gotta stay gold If I make a billion, let me still remember home If the lights get brighter, don't let me walk alone I put my faith above the fame and all the gold That's the only thing worth more than what I own **[Verse 2]** I'm not an army, I'm a movement, that's the difference Built this from the basement with a dream and persistence Every loss became a lesson, every scar became a lyric Every time they counted me out, I got closer to the spirit I got family depending on the choices that I make So I think about tomorrow every time I celebrate I can't move like I'm twenty with the world on my shoulders The older that I get, the more I realize what's important My daughter deserves a world where she ain't scared of the streets Where a kid can chase a dream and actually live what they see So I'm working through the pressure, trying to build something lasting Not just jewelry in a safe, but a legacy that matters I've seen luxury and struggle sitting right across the street One man's eating at the table, another can't afford to eat So every time I shine, I remember where I came from You can wear a crown and still forget who you became from **[Hook — Melodic]** Lord, keep your hand on me While I'm chasing everything I dreamed I want the world, but I don't wanna lose my soul Gold around my neck, but my heart gotta stay gold If I make a billion, let me still remember home If the lights get brighter, don't let me walk alone I put my faith above the fame and all the gold That's the only thing worth more than what I own **[Verse 3]** From empty pockets to a room full of executives From wondering if I'd eat to wondering what's the next event I learned success ain't measured by the people taking pictures It's the ones who stay beside you when there's nothing left to give you I shook hands with opportunity, slept with doubt Had to fight my own reflection just to figure myself out Now I'm looking at the skyline with my family on my mind Thinking maybe all these blessings came exactly at the right time I made mistakes, I ain't hiding from the record But grace gave me another chance to make the story better Every season had a reason, every setback had a lesson Sometimes God closes doors because the room ain't your direction So let the gold shine, but don't let it blind me Let the car ride smooth, but don't let it define me Let the money come, I'ma use it for my people And if heaven is the destination, I hope my soul is peaceful **[Bridge — R&B Vocal]** When the night gets cold And the lights fade low Will I still know Who I was before the gold? Keep my heart right Keep my eyes on You If I lose everything Let me still have something true **[Final Hook — Big Harmonies]** Lord, keep your hand on me While I'm chasing everything I dreamed I want the world, but I don't wanna lose my soul Gold around my neck, but my heart gotta stay gold If I make a billion, let me still remember home If the lights get brighter, don't let me walk alone I put my faith above the fame and all the gold That's the only thing worth more than what I own **[Outro]** Tell 'em pray for me… I'm still becoming who I'm supposed to be The money comes and the money goes But faith… family… legacy… That's the real gold. From the Eastcoast to the Westcoast... NY to LA...That's how we move.... It's Bobby. Yeah.
