I Pray

Location

I was a kid

born and raised in a country not so wealthy

I was a kid 

who didn't have a lot

I was a kid 

who pray every night for a better day

As the pouring rain pass through my ear to another

My mind went through a million memories

back then and to the future

I hear these kids laughing in my mind

But I hear these kids crying

Every night 

I pray to God

for these kids to have food to eat

I pray to God

for these kids to have a complete family

I pray to God

for these kids to have enough money to get an education

I pray to God 

for these kids safety

I pray to God

for these kids hope every morning

I pray to God

that it will only get better

Not many kids have it all

I only wish that these kids never had to suffer

to get them to reach a better life

I pray to God
