Lecrae — Prayin' for You lyrics

Lyrics

Father, I’m prayin' for a friend he and I are pretty close, and out of all my friends
for this one I’m concerned the most. He say he readin' daily but he ain’t
really learnin'
He been in church but say that he ain’t moved by any sermon
His face weak, he ain’t
prayed in a week, he wake up and just weep with his face in the sink Lord,
You gotta
help my man, I’m prayin' for him daily, he ain’t sinned but it just seem as if he
goin' crazy. He say he feelin' trapped, can’t even head up the mall coz every
lady’s
half-dressed temptin' him to lust and fall. He keep the TV off, videos just
make him
feel that he ain’t really nothin' without money, girls and shiny wheels.
The other
day he told me that he felt less a man coz he ain’t have a five-year plan or a piece
of land and man it’s crazy coz his family think so much of him, plus he got a Godly
wife who always showin' love for him but he’s strugglin', even though he talk
to me
I tell him what to do but he don’t listen when he oughta' be
I’m scared for him coz
there’s people that look up to him, he got some younger siblings who been
changed
by what he’s done for them but is it done for him, Lord don’t let it be,
if he don’t
wanna talk to You then Father hear from me, is it done for him, Lord don’t let
it be, if he don’t wanna talk to You then Father hear from me Yeah, I’m prayin' for you, yeah, I’m prayin' for you
Yeah, I’m prayin' for you, yeah, yeah, I’m prayin' for you
God, his condition is worsen since we were last conversed and I’m with him now
and
he ain’t doin' well and this I’m certain. He say he tryna' trust You,
doesn’t wanna
disgust you but he was in the mist of sinners and did not discuss You and just
today
his anxiety’s got the best of him, he knows Christ but for hours refuse to rest
in Him, he’s not the best of men but Lord I know he really loves You and I can’t
understand
why lately he’s not thinkin' of You People trust this dude, you could crush this
dude, Father he needs more of You I pray You touch this dude, what can I say to him?
I’m determined to pray for him Father empty and brake him I pray You’ll just
have
Your way with him, coz there’s a change in him and the effects are strong,
I pray
You open up his heart before the next song and when he gets home,
I pray he’ll open
up the sixty-six book love letter you wrote and soak it up coz he ain’t hearin'
You
and he ain’t feelin' me and God I know it’s killin' You because it’s killin' me and
matter of fact there’s somethin' else he’s concealin' see, the person that I’ve
been
prayin' about is really me Yeah, I’m prayin' for you, yeah, I’m prayin' for you
Yeah, I’m prayin' for you, yeah, yeah, I’m prayin' for you
