[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 shit 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, fuck

[Verse 2]
Looking back, this shit 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 shit", 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 fuck '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 shit that I say, my feelings gray
I'm conflicted, they just shift and they change
But in two weeks, I feel this shit 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 shit", 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
