The Praying Woman
Your legs were made to run, buddy, so go
Cut the rope, tangle it in the tail and bring
Your eyes were made to see
Every time a girl passes by
Your mouth was made to flirt, so go and bring
Because I've seen your situation, your pots on the stove
Your slipper without a lace, your slum, your mattress
Your sequel, rot, your notebook without a lesson
Your tail on the buses, your theft, your breadwinning
Your escape with your brothers, your celebration
I saw your nice boot, your indoor soccer
Your determination for the job, your swagger, your downfall
And I even cried with your first detention
Scoundrel, go run, go play
It's going to rain, it's going to get dirty
Let the boy play, it's Friday
To protect, there's the praying woman
The praying woman will pray, praying woman, will pray
Praying woman, will pray, praying woman will
The praying woman will pray, praying woman, will pray
Praying woman, will pray, praying woman will
But these bars don't hold you, right, buddy
Come back to us
Leave the problems aside and buy a fast motorcycle
But to have a fast motorcycle, right, you need some cash
And that's how, that's how I saw your end
Because I saw your desire, I saw your plan
I saw you, saw your buddies
I saw the disguise, I saw your gun
And I saw you shooting
I saw you running, exchanging
Hiding, getting scared
I saw you there, saw you praying and saw your chest bleeding
I saw your friends leaving, your friends abandoning you
Your courage fading, and your eyes closing
I saw your crying, saw your fear dominating you inside
And I saw half a dozen angels coming for you
Scoundrel, go run, go play
It's going to rain, it's going to get dirty
Let the boy play, it's Friday
To protect, there's the praying woman
The praying woman will pray, praying woman, will pray
Praying woman, will pray, praying woman will
The praying woman will pray, praying woman, will pray
Praying woman, will pray, praying woman will
And she had to see you, buddy, bleeding on the ground
She tried to help you, but an emergency room couldn't
She crossed the isolation, no bullshit
I saw when she pushed a cop and kneeled
I also saw her crying in your blood
Shouting to a certain Lord
Singing loud and clear that beautiful praise
Facing your spirit next to your body, standing
Begging for you to repent if you can
And I saw your body trembling with your heart stopped
A tear running with your eyes closed
Everyone watching in awe
And each of the cameras malfunctioning
To keep the secret guarded
The praying woman stopped singing, and smiled at you
The angels returned to heaven, and then your eyes opened
And I cried witnessing with you
When I saw your mother giving birth to you for the second time
Scoundrel, go run, go play
It's going to rain, it's going to get dirty
Let the boy play, it's Friday
To protect, there's the praying woman
The praying woman will pray, praying woman, will pray
Praying woman, will pray, praying woman will
The praying woman will pray, praying woman, will pray
Praying woman, will pray, praying woman will
