Praying
Kesha Song Lyrics

[Music video spoken intro]

'Am I dead? or is this one of those dreams? those horrible dreams that seem like they last forever? if I am alive, why? why? if there is a god or whatever, something, somewhere, why have I been abandoned by everyone and everything I've ever known? I've ever loved? stranded. what is the lesson? what is the point? god, give me a sign, or I have to give up. I can't do this anymore. please just let me die. being alive hurts too much.'

Well, you almost had me fooled

Told me that I was nothing without you

Oh, and after everything you've done

I can thank you for how strong I have become.

'cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell

I had to learn how to fight for myself

And we both know all the truth I could tell

I'll just say this is I wish you farewell.

I hope you're somewhere praying, praying

I hope your soul is changing, changing

I hope you find your peace

Falling on your knees, praying.

I'm proud of who I am

No more monsters, I can breathe again

And you said that I was done

Well, you were wrong and now the best is yet to come.

'cause I can make it on my own

And I don't need you, I found a strength I've never known

I've been thrown out, I've been burned ([live version] I'll bring thunder, I'll bring rain)

When I'm finished, they won't even know your name.

You brought the flames and you put me through hell

I had to learn how to fight for myself

And we both know all the truth I could tell

I'll just say this is I wish you farewell.

I hope you're somewhere praying, praying

I hope your soul is changing, changing

I hope you find your peace

Falling on your knees, praying.

Oh, sometimes, I pray for you at night

Oh, someday, maybe you'll see the light

Oh, some say, in life you gonna get what you give

But some things, only god can forgive.

I hope you're somewhere praying, praying

I hope your soul is changing, changing

I hope you find your peace

Falling on your knees, praying.
