Hive Open Mic Week 269// Acapella version of Pray Sam smith (cover)
**Greetings everyone, I feel extremely joyed to be back on this prestigious platform. I remain my humble self @coderaikiri and this is hive open mic week 269. My entry for the week will be an Acapella version to one of Sam Smith's songs titled Pray.
The song is a response to the theme of the week which is my choice and the lyrics is a full testament of what choices can lead one to. I fell in love with this song at one of the lowest point in my life where I doubted everything and wondered what the point of existence was. I struggled with religion, fought against my faith and became a shell of who I was. But despite everything, I never stopped praying even when I lost hope I still uttered words of prayers. I did not know who I was praying to but I prayed regardless. Just like he said "everyone prays in the end".
I hope you all listen and enjoy this great song
Thanks
LYRICS:
I'm young and I'm foolish, I've made bad decisions
I block out the news, turn my back on religion
Don't have no degree, I'm somewhat naïve
I've made it this far on my own
But lately, that shit ain't been gettin' me higher
I lift up my head and the world is on fire
There's dread in my heart and fear in my bones
And I just don't know what to say
Maybe I'll pray, pray
Maybe I'll pray
I have never believed in you, no
But I'm gonna pray
You won't find me in church (no) reading the Bible (no)
I am still here and I'm still your disciple
I'm down on my knees, I'm beggin' you, please
I'm broken, alone, and afraid
I'm not a saint, I'm more of a sinner
I don't wanna lose, but I fear for the winners
When I tried to explain, the words ran away
That's why I am stood here today
And I'm gonna pray (Lord)
Pray (Lord), maybe I'll pray
Pray for a glimmer of hope
Maybe I'll pray (Lord), pray (Lord), maybe I'll pray
I've never believed in you, no, but I'm gonna
Won't you call me?
Can we have a one-on-one, please?
Let's talk about freedom
Everyone prays in the end
Everyone prays in the end
Oh, won't you call me?
Can we have a one-on-one, please?
Let's talk about freedom
Everyone prays in the end
Everyone prays in the end
Oh, I'm gonna pray, I'm gonna pray
I'm gonna pray
Pray for a glimmer of hope
Maybe I'll pray, pray, maybe I'll pray
I've never believed in you, no, but I'm gonna pray
