Pray
R.F.C. Lyrics

Pray for me brother
Asking for support and guidance from a fellow man

Pray for me sister
Asking for support and guidance from a fellow woman

Are you searchin'
Questioning if the listener is also searching for answers

Lookin' for the answers To all the questions In my life
Seeking answers to life's many questions

Will I be alone Will you be there By my side
Asking if the listener will stick around in times of loneliness

Is it something he said Is it something he did
Wonding if someone's words or actions caused a problem

I wonder why He is searchin' For the answers To stay alive
Questioning why someone is working so hard to stay alive

Could you ever listen Could you ever care
Questioning if the listener is capable of showing empathy

To speak your mind Only for a minute For only one moment In time
Asking the listener to speak honestly for a brief moment

The joy is around us But show me the love That we must find
Acknowledging happiness, but also stressing the importance of finding love

Are you searchin' For a reason to be kind, to be kind… He said… Pray for me brother
Asking if the listener is searching for a reason to be kind, and requesting prayer for support

Say what you wanna say now But keep your hearts open
Encouraging honesty, but also remaining open-minded

Be what you wanna be now Let's heal the confusion Pray for me brother
Urging others to be themselves and work together to overcome confusion

Don't let me take When you don't wanna give Don't be afraid Just let me live
Asking others not to force their decisions onto the artist, and to let them make their own choices

I'm ashamed ah, brother be dying of poverty when he down on his knees its only then he prays
Expressing the shame of seeing people living in poverty only resorting to prayer when they are desperate

And it's a shame ah, brother be dying of ignorance cos the world is a trip and everybody's a hypocrite
Lamenting the fact that some people remain ignorant due to the deception and hypocrisy of the world

Need to stop ah , taking a look at the other I'm not ashamed of poverty need to be making his life better
Stressing the importance of addressing poverty and working towards improving the lives of those affected

So think about it, think about it once more cos life is a blessing and it's not justa show, ah
Encouraging reflection on the value of life and how it should be appreciated

Round and round the world is spinning around We need to be singing a prayer, we need to be singing it now
Commenting on the cyclical nature of the world, and urging others to sing a prayer for change

Need to be feeling the power, need to be feeling the faith We need to coming together just to win this race
Reinforcing the importance of unity and faith in order to overcome challenges
