Lyrics to “Pray“
[Intro]
Instrumental
Oh oh oh oh oh
Hal hallelujah
Hal hallelu
Eh eh eh eh eh eh eh
[Verse 1]
You say I be bloody fellow [You said I am a bloody fellow.]
As my skin come yellow [As my skin is yellow.]
You say I no sabi hustle [You said I can’t hustle.]
I no sabi hustle [I can’t hustle.]
You were sleeping well o
I was out here writing songs
And I was working double
I was working double
As you no dey for me [As you are not available for me.]
I carry my cross go cavalry [I carried my cross to the cavalry.]
It’s in the rhythm and melody for me
The reason mo fi ijo si, mo fako si [The reason I add dance and fronting to it.]
As you no dey for me [As you are not available for me.]
I carry my cross go cavalry [I carried my cross to the cavalry.]
It’s in the rhythm and melody for me
The reason mo fi ijo si, mo fako si, eh [The reason I add dance and fronting to it.]
[Chorus]
Eh, ah emi mimo o [Holy Spirit]
Ejo, ejo o [Please, please.]
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
Emi mimo o [Holy Spirit.]
I’ve been working hard o
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
Emi mimo o [Holy Spirit.]
I’ve been working hard o
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
Emi mimo o [Holy Spirit.]
Oni kin ma danwo [He said I shouldn’t try it.]
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
[Verse 2]
I just — two shows, killed that on the same night
The same night I was thinking ʼbout date nights
With shawty and you know it’s her favorite
Her fine face and her body on skin tight
Skin tight so you know it all fits right
Man this year I was giving them fist-fights
Fighting all my demons at midnight
While blowing bare gas through windpipes
I told ʼem not to sleep on my sh#t right?
Now I’m at the O2 at past midnight
I’m playing two nights and I’m outside
Feels right and you know it all feels right
(Don’t sleep), I told them not to sleep on me
Tell them you go see something [Told them you would see something.]
You wan see me you go pay money o [You want to see me, you ould pay money.]
Oh oh oh oh oh
I told them not to sleep on me
Tell them you go see something [Told them you would see something.]
You wan see me you go pay money [If you want to see me, you would pay money.]
[Chorus]
Eh, ah emi mimo o [Holy Spirit]
Ejo, ejo o [Please, please.]
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
Emi mimo o [Holy Spirit.]
I’ve been working hard o
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
Emi mimo o [Holy Spirit.]
Ejo, ejo o [Please, please.]
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
Emi mimo o [Holy Spirit.]
I have been working hard o
Make I no go fall o [I should not fall.]
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
[Outro]
Tune in to the king of sound and blues
I too pray o [I pray so much.]
