Prayer
Yoba/Robin Schulz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, our hands will get more wrinkled
And our hair, it will be grey
Don't think I could forgive you
And see the children are starving
And their houses were destroyed
Don't think they could forgive you

Hey, when seas will cover lands
And when men will be no more
Don't think you can forgive you
Yeah, when there'll just be silence
And when life will be over
Don't think you will forgive you

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, you never said a word
You didn't send me no letter
Don't think I could forgive you
See, our world is slowly dying
I'm not wasting no more time
Don't think I could believe you

Ya, our hands will get more wrinkled
And our hair, it will be grey
Don't think I could forgive you
And see the children are starving
And their houses were destroyed
Don't think they could forgive you

Ey, when seas will cover lands
And when men will be no more
Don't think you can forgive you
Yeah, when there'll just be silence




And when life will be over
Don't think you will forgive you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Yoba/Robin Schulz's song "Prayer" are a powerful meditation on forgiveness and the tragedy of a dying world. In the first verse, the singer addresses someone who has wronged them, saying that they never said a word or sent a letter of apology. They express doubt that they could forgive this person, given the dire state of the world and the limited time they have left.


In the second verse, the singer takes a broader view of the world's problems, mentioning wrinkles and gray hair as signs of aging, children starving and houses being destroyed, and the possibility of the seas covering the land and humanity becoming extinct. Despite this bleak outlook, the singer maintains that forgiveness is still necessary, even if it may be difficult or impossible.


Overall, the song can be seen as a call to action for those who have caused harm in the world to take responsibility for their actions and seek forgiveness before it's too late. It's also a reminder to all of us that forgiveness is a necessary component of a healthy and peaceful existence.
