As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Pray the Lord my soul to keep)
And if I die 'fore I wake
(If I die 'fore I wake)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
(Pray the Lord my soul to take) 
As I lay me down to sleep
(I been praying that) 
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Pray the Lord my soul to keep) 
And if I die 'fore I wake
(If I die 'fore I wake)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
(I ain't just sayin that) 

On my back staring at the ceiling
Contemplating an intervention 
Choices I been making
I feel my old ways starting to slip back in
Self reflection, man in the mirror
Hard to even recognize him
Different ways I been numbing pain
Found myself back compromising 
They say never say never, huh
Then I did 
Now I'm back fighting old vices
I could've swore I buried like seven years ago, I 
Crack the seal, then bust down tha spliff
Maybe it's the results of years of tucking my chin 
And holding the bullshit in, I swear 
Trying to be there for everybody
Got a heart that wants to help
But in the midst of extending favors
Seem like I forgot about myself
Maybe too defensive to ask for help
Cause I feel they'll flip it and use it against me
With some ulterior motives that play out for them
That leave me stuck between love and war
Seem like my silent nights always the loudest
(Silent nights always the loudest)
Knew they was getting over and I just let it slide
Telling lies to my own eyes
Feel my heart growing colder by the hour
(Heart so much colder) 
Telling God that I need some more vouchers 
Save me 'fore I spiral out

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Pray the Lord my soul to keep)
And if I die 'fore I wake
(If I die 'fore I wake)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
(Pray the Lord my soul to take) 
As I lay me down to sleep
(I been praying that) 
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Pray the Lord my soul to keep) 
And if I die 'fore I wake
(If I die 'fore I wake)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
( I ain't just sayin that) 

Too open hearted, left unguarded 
Seen 'em go from praying for me to preying on me
Watching closely
Seem like the more I notice, I become emotionless
Taught to match aggression with aggression 
If ever I feel they trying to press me
I be set to spazz
We can clash like some cymbals 
Lately been on they edge
Boy, I done turned the other cheek so much left both of em bleeding
(Left both of em bleeding)
Feel like I only talk to God nowadays when I need something 
This aftermath, that's got me broken
Torn
Still scarred
Still mourning your little heartbeat that's gone
Longing just to hold you in my arms
I'm guessing God needed you more than I did
And He took a piece of me with it
Tears hitting the floor 
You can hear em 
That type of pain that just hit different 
I should be probably be thumbing it out with some scriptures
But instead, I been numbing it out with prescriptions
I need a couple of sessions of redemption 
Man, still trying to pick up my pieces 
(Pick up my pieces)

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Pray the Lord my soul to keep)
And if I die 'fore I wake
(If I die 'fore I wake)
I pray the Lord my soul to take
(Pray the Lord my soul to take) 
As I lay me down to sleep
(I been praying that) 
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Pray the Lord my soul to keep) 
And if I die 'fore I wake
(If I die 'fore I wake)
I pray the Lord my soul to take

(I need your guidance at all times)
(All times)
(All times)
(Yeah, yeah)
(I need your guidance at all times)
(I been praying that)
(I ain't just saying that)
