[Verse 1]
Dear God, life, love, the universe
Whatever name you like to use
We ask that you allow tonight to be another one of our best shows
We're grateful for what we get to do
Please allow the lights to be perfect, the sound to be perfect
And my fingers to hit all the right keys
I remember writing all these little songs in my notebook
And now these people pay to see me
That's just crazy, you must admit
Before that first deal, before those hits
Tone and I would wrap our arms around each other backstage
And Big Sean would say words like this
I didn't understand though, mama raised me a atheist
Which is fine, but I now think maybe it's
More to life than the things you can touch and feel
To me, God's just life and love, it's real
Not a old white man in the sky
That's how I used to think about it, but it didn't feel right
It's 9:08, we getting kinda late, so we open up our eyes and say

[Chorus]
Amen (Amen)
For the life, the love, the spirit
Amen (Amen)
For the things my eyes don't see
Amen (Amen)
For the ones no longer with us
Amen (Amen)
Please say a prayer for me
[Verse 2]
Dear Jesus, Allah, Krishna, Buddha
Whatever name you like to say
Please grant your heavenly love and sweet peace
To the family of Jessica Joe May
Six years ago, she wrote me and said she was my biggest fan
And she wouldn't go to sleep if I didn't hit her back
So I said, "Thanks, boo, go to sleep, you got school"
A friendship started, but ended too soon
Just a child, she used to tweet me every day
Draw me little pictures, say "I hope you feel okay"
I bet she never knew that I was going through some shit
My family was pissed at me and I almost quit
On that November night 'til I saw what she tweeted
"Keep making good music," that was just what I needed
You know I never even told her "Thank you," and I don't know why
'Cause on August 26th, Jessica died
I never thought that some fan on Twitter
Would give me a broken heart, but Lord, I miss her
When you opening the gates up, don't forget her
And save me a spot; soon, I'll be right there with her

[Chorus]
Amen (Amen, amen)
For the life, the love, the spirit
Amen (Amen)
For the things my eyes don't see
Amen (Amen)
For the ones no longer with us
Amen (Amen)
Please say a prayer for me
[Verse 3]
Dear Ra, Jehova, Dao, Brahma
Whichever name that you prefer
My big sister is a real light in the world
So yes, Lord, this is for her
I used to think she was crazy
All that hippie shit that she was on
Tying yourself to trees, man, I thought it was wrong
While I was flying 'round the world tryna get famous
You volunteered in New Orleans when the hurricane hit
Helping displaced kids
And people interview me while she remains nameless
Hmm, I didn't always get it
You lived in such a bad hood that I was 'fraid to visit
Uh, but on the side of your crib
You started a garden for all them little kids
And you taught 'em to grow fruits and veggies for they families
And here I am, worrying about a GRAMMY
I'll never forget that February night
I was in the studio with J. Cole, they were prepping the mic
You hit me with that text saying we needed to speak
I thought you were pregnant, I was prepping a speech
But it was something different that you had to say
Michael, I'm in love with a woman, I'm gay
Searching for the words in my head
When I found 'em, this is what I said
"I just want you to know that I love you
That's no matter what, Mom and Dad do too
And I got your back until my last day
And the universe does too," that's why I say
[Chorus]
Amen (Amen)
For the life, the love, the spirit
Amen (Amen)
For the things my eyes don't see
Amen (Amen)
For the ones no longer with us
Amen (Amen)
Please say a prayer for me
