[Intro]
This isn't monetized
But I was just, um
You know, it's a little unusual for me to upload like this
But I was just writing last night, um
And I wanted to share, okay
Yeah

[Chorus]
Too many thoughts and prayers for God to care
Too many lost and forgotten get remembered when they not there
It's not fair, but how am I to know? One day you at the bottom
And then when you're at the top, you're not alive to know

[Verse 1]
Sometimes, I think that when I die, I know what life will show
But, man, this sh*t ain't as black and white as I'd like to hope
Y'all think in heaven or hell, my mind purgatory
Certainly certain that nothin' is ever certain for me
Sometimes, I really feel like nature keeps on working for me
And other times, I feel the forces keep a burden on me
And I feel blessed you wrote in blood and that I heard your story
But I feel I only got to read like one chapter
And there's a hundred other pages that are damp and blank
I guess I really wanted you to get the chance to change
Hand in the game, commandin' a lane, fans and the fame
Withstandin' the pain, and now your legacy's branded a stain
[Bridge]
I know the game can't be the same
And jammed in my brain is somethin' that just can't be explained
Am I meant to hate the man for the sand on his name?
Somebody told me I'd be damned if I am not ashamed, f*ck

[Verse 2]
Looking back, this sh*t is plenty clear
But hindsight ain't 20/20 when you're twenty facin' twenty years
You can't forget about the many peers
And all their messages goin' in-and-out like almost every ear
People claim that he's in heaven or hell
Man, I heard both in the music, the angels and the bells
It helped what I felt, it helped with all the spells I was dealt
And I was yellin' all the songs, I never yelled at myself, uh
I was just stuck in my room, chillin' there, nothin' to do, uh
Then I checked up on the news, couldn't believe that that somethin' was true, uh
This man invented the flow, made that adrenaline go
Yeah, I remember the moment I found you, and now you are never gon' show

[Chorus]
Too many thoughts and prayers for God to care
Too many lost and forgotten get remembered once they not there, uh

[Post-Chorus]
"Thoughts and prayers don't do sh*t", that's what the cynics say
But what else are we supposed to do but sit and pray?
I ain't religious in the slightest, but I live in faith
Faith in the midst of the rain, faith that it will be okay
[Verse 3]
So I could give a f*ck 'bout a million plays
So long as just one of them really relates
And I know that sounds really cliché
But I'm for real about the sh*t that I say, my feelings gray
I'm conflicted, they just shift and they change
But in two weeks, I feel this sh*t won't grip me the same, uh

[Chorus]
Too many thoughts and prayers for God to care
Too many lost and forgotten get remembered when they not there
It's not fair, but how am I to know? One day you at the bottom
And then when you're at the top, you're not alive to know

[Post-Chorus]
"Thoughts and prayers don't do sh*t", that's what the cynics say
But what else are we supposed to do but sit and pray?
I ain't religious in the slightest, but I live in faith
Faith in the midst of the rain, faith that it will be okay

[Outro]
Yeah
