Token - A Prayer lyrics

Everyone tellin' me I'm just runnin'
From the truth still
I ain't runnin' from nothin'
I know the truth kill
I don't want pictures of you
I want the real one
I gotta sing it to feel it
'cause I don't feel none
They tellin' me I'm over-obsessin' about you
Thinking that I'm just grieving
And it'll pass soon
But I don't want it to pass
I don't want it to rest
I just want it to last
I don't want to forget

Why do I feel like it's someone trying
To pull a cord on me?
Why do I feel like your girlfriend
Knew you more than me?
Why do I feel like when you
Left I was brought with you?
Why do I feel like any moment
I'll get a call from you?

I wrap my hand around that thing you got me
It made me strong without you
You put your arm around me
I put my arm around you
I hit that stage and they all watched
Me say a prayer about you
I said a prayer about you
I said a prayer about you

Everyone tellin' me I'm just runnin'
From the truth still
I ain't runnin' from nothin'
I know the truth kill
I got so much regret and I
Don't know where I'm at
I don't know where to start and
I rather fade to black
I see you in the mirror each
Time I look in there
Did I miss it before or did
You just put it there?
I kept thinkin' about that guitar
You played for me
And all the songs you wrote and
What you were saying to me

Why do I feel like I'm so
Cold I don't even wanna move?
Why do I feel like it's your mom
Look at me like I'm you?
Why do I feel like I just
Lost my number one fan?
I wanna just talk about it but
You're the only one who'd understand

I wrap my hand around that thing you got me
It made me strong without you
You put your arm around me
I put my arm around you
I hit that stage and they all watched
Me say a prayer about you
I said a prayer about you
I said a prayer about you

Everyone tellin' me I'm just runnin'
From the truth still
I don't wanna run anymore, but I prolly will
If I move like I don't believe it
I won't believe it so if you see me by his
Apartment you know the reason
I wanna meet with your girl
Again but I can't, pop
'Cause she gon' tell me another story
She don't stop i know she hopin' to help but
It make it hurt more
'Cause it just remind me of
What I wasn't present for

Why do I feel like you never knew
How much I'm just like you?
You performin' for the holiday
I do it just like you
Why do I feel like I gotta
Carry you wherever I'm seen?
You better be up there sayin':
"My son love me, he love me"

I wrap my hand around that thing you got me
It made me strong without you
You put your arm around me
I put my arm around you
I hit that stage and they all watched
Me say a prayer about you (Prayer)
I said a prayer about you
I said a prayer about you

Happy birthday dear Benji
Happy birthday dear Benji
Happy birthday dear Benji
Bye, bye sweetheart
I'm very happy and grateful you're my son
Bye, bye
