So what if I pray?
Will He hear me when I call?
What would I even say?
Will he pick me up if I fall?
Sometimes I rue the day
I claimed to be having a ball
Clueless of the price to pay
Climbing a mountain way too tall
The highs were great
But boy! The drop left a mark
I couldn’t bear the weight
All the lights suddenly went dark
Friends turned to foes
A tale as old as time
I took a huge blow
That left a taste of bitter lime
Is there really a way out?
I’m just a man clutching on straws
My mind is filled with doubt
I’m a victim of life’s sharp claws
I pick myself up and fake a smile
Surely, this can’t be the only way
To find an answer, I’d walk a mile
But for now, I guess I’ll just pray.
