Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, yeah Man on the TV's gone insane, everybody's just laughing People 'cross the world holding on The earth caved in, the ocean came down crashing My neighbor lost his house 'cause he can't find a job Don't you dare pledge allegiance, don't you dare speak of God Speak of God Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Now I'm begging for forgiveness I wanna make a difference even in the smallest way I'm only one person, but I can feel it working I believe in better days That's why I pray Some stupid video posted as a joke, somebody's life gets ruined Out of everything we can create Where is the cure to keep the sick from losing? Babies having babies 'cause their parents are always gone Somehow we have forgotten how to make a house a home How to make a house a home Oh! Oh! Yeah! Yeah! I'm begging for forgiveness, I wanna make a difference Even in the smallest way I'm only one person, but I can feel it working I believe in better days That's why I pray, yeah That's why I pray, yeah These demons from my past haunt me every night And I just can't get through it If I could forget them on my own, I'll let go and just move on But heaven knows I am only human And that's why I pray, yeah yeah That's why I pray, I pray, I pray, I pray Yes I'm begging for forgiveness (I'm begging for forgiveness) I just wanna make a difference (Just wanna make a difference) I believe (I believe) in better days That's why I pray
