[00:02.63]9th Wonder - Better Way
[00:07.63]
[00:21.74]In 89 they threw me under the water
[00:23.91]In the name of the Holy Spirit, Son, and the Father
[00:26.78]From this day forward I would always have a partner
[00:29.46]Someone to lean on as the times got harder
[00:33.14]But as the days got darker
[00:35.02]I began to question everything I was a part of
[00:38.14]Why the preacher always driving something so nice
[00:40.89]And why the leader of the choir ain’t got no wife
[00:44.13]So many things that didn’t flow right
[00:46.18]The ones who loved the most high always be the lowlifes
[00:49.68]So I expanded on my own route
[00:51.68]Read The Final Call, saw what Farakah was talking bout
[00:54.80]When I first quit pork it made my mother shout
[00:57.23]Did miss pepperoni, yo no doubt
[01:00.04]But I held strong, I was so devout
[01:02.60]A little man trying figure it all out
[01:05.12][Hook]
[01:05.43]I pray for love, I pray for peace
[01:08.56]I pray for you, I pray for me
[01:11.11]I pray for the living, I pray for the deceased
[01:13.97]I pray for the people that’s living in the streets
[01:16.72]I pray for my friends, pray for my enemies
[01:19.03]I pray for free healthcare and clean energy
[01:21.83]Cause this my prayer, I say it every day
[01:24.59]I pray for patience while we working towards a better way
[01:27.58][Verse 2]
[01:27.95]Been around the world, traveled many oceans
[01:30.14]I kept a clear heart and my mind open
[01:32.88]Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines
[01:35.44]One with nature, one with the divine
[01:38.81]Find your god, find your peace
[01:41.49]Find your truth and your beliefs
[01:43.92]Weather you believe in God or the tooth fairy
[01:46.42]Bump Brother Ali or watch Tyler Perry
[01:49.72]Me, I grew up inside the Baptist church
[01:52.10]But I still do yoga because I think it works
[01:54.78]I believe in ancient aliens and in Jesus
[01:57.46]I believe in helping mother Earth cause she needs us
[02:00.28]I believe in understanding and tolerance
[02:02.77]I believe in government without the politics
[02:04.89]
[02:05.76]I believe you shouldn’t place your faith in one man
[02:08.49]And remember the creator has a master plan
[02:11.23]I pray for love, I pray for peace
[02:13.85]I pray for you, I pray for me
[02:16.53]I pray for the living, I pray for the deceased
[02:18.91]I pray for the people that’s living in the streets
[02:22.09]I pray for my friends, pray for my enemies
