🎵 Hook (whispery, melodic tension)
I send paranoia prayers up at 3 A.M. (real)
Can’t trust sleep, too close to the end (facts)
I say “God, watch over my sins”
But keep a tool close just in case He don’t bend
I pray out loud with my eyes still open (uh huh)
'Cause the ones I love be the ones I’m scoping
Cross on my neck, but I move like a threat
'Cause even angels forget to protect
---
[Verse 1 – Mental warfare bars, spiritual conflict]
I talk to God, then I talk to my .9
Some nights I don’t know who really replyin’
Been stabbed in the back by hands I kissed
So now I fold my hands with a backup grip
I ain’t holy, but I been through hell
So when I pray, it’s a war cry I yell
I keep hope, but my fears still lurk
So I sleep like I sin — alert and hurt
Even love come with a blurred ID
So I pray… but I still don’t breathe freely

🔊 Ad-Libs – Verse 1:
“Talk to me.” / “I trust no one.” / “Still breathing.” / “Real pain.”

🎵 Hook (repeat with layered FX)
I send paranoia prayers up at 3 A.M.
Can’t trust sleep, too close to the end
I say “God, watch over my sins”
But keep a tool close just in case He don’t bend
I pray out loud with my eyes still open
'Cause the ones I love be the ones I’m scoping
Cross on my neck, but I move like a threat
'Cause even angels forget to protect

[Verse 2 – Hood philosophy, emotional armor]
I don’t sleep, I just shut down slow
Countin' demons I used to know
Seen the reaper with my uncle’s chain
So I trust no face, no name, no lane
They say "faith without fear is peace"
But I learned faith in a place where pain don’t cease
I do right, but the world still spin
So I pray with a heart that won’t let them in
If paranoia prayers ever hit the sky
I hope God know why I still grip tight
---
🔊 Ad-Libs – Verse 2:
“That’s facts.” / “Stay ready.” / “Cross and chrome.” / “God, hear me.”

🎧 Outro – piano echoes, siren reverb fades
(Spoken)
If I trust, I die slow.
If I don’t, I die alone.
