Pray For Me – The Weeknd

Pray For Me Lyrics

[Intro: The Weeknd]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Verse 1: The Weeknd]
I’m always ready for a war again (A war again)
Go down that road again (That road again)
It’s all the same (It’s all the same)
I’m always ready to take a life again (That life again)
You know I’ll ride again (I’ll ride again)
It’s all the same (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

[Pre-Chorus: The Weeknd]
Tell me who’s gon’ save me from myself
When this life is all I know
Tell me who’s gon’ save me from this hell
Without you, I’m all alone

[Chorus: The Weeknd]
Who gon’ pray for me? Take my pain for me?
Save my soul for me? ‘Cause I’m alone, you see
If I’m gon’ die for you, if I’m gon’ kill for you
Then I’ll spill this blood for you, hey

[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
I fight the world, I fight you, I fight myself
I fight God, just tell me how many burdens left
I fight pain and hurricanes, today, I wept
I’m tryna fight back tears, flood on my doorsteps
Life a livin’ hell, puddles of blood in the streets
Shooters on top of the building, government aid ain’t relief
Earthquake, the body dropped, the ground breaks
The poor run with smoke lungs and Scarface
Who need a hero? (Hero)
You need a hero, look in the mirror, there go your hero
Who on the front lines at ground zero? (Hero)
My heart don’t skip a beat, even when hard times bumps the needle
Mass destruction and mass corruption, the souls of sufferin’ men
Clutchin’ on deaf ears again, rapture’s comin’
It’s all prophecy and if I gotta be
Sacrificed for the greater good, then that’s what it gotta be

[Bridge: The Weeknd]
Hey, hey (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Hey, hey (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Hey, hey (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Hey, hey (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

[Outro: Kendrick Lamar & The Weeknd, The Weeknd]
Just in case my faith go, I’ll live by my own law
I’ll live by my own law, I’ll live by my own
Just in case my faith go, I’ll live by my own law
I’ll live by my own law, I’ll live by my own
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
