Stay Prayed Up Lyrics - Singles - Kandi Burruss

Why me, Lord? 

That's what I kept on saying not too long ago 

It seems like I was living in the darkest hole 

My sadness and my anger start to take control 

I had a lot of stuff weighing on me y'all 

I shed a lot of tears that you didn't see, no 

But I couldn't let grief consume me 

Cause I got a little girl depending on me 

It can't rain forever 

The sun's got to shine again 

I remember that old saying 

So I kept praying and you should do the same my friend 

I stay prayed up, that gets me by 

That's how I made it through my darkest times 

Yeah I'm a sinner and that's no lie 

Thank God my prayers are heard cause He knows I try 

Yeah I stay prayed up, yes I stay prayed up 

See the only way I made it through my pain is through God's favor 

Why me, Lord? 

How am I supposed to raise these kids alone 

I do the best I can to keep a happy home 

It's hard to do it now, my better half is gone 

Got a lot of eyes looking at me y'all 

Judging every move that I'm making y'all 

I'm just trying to do the best that I can 

But it's hard cause I'm just an ordinary man 

It can't rain forever 

The sun's gonna shine again 

I remember the old saying 

So I just keep praying and you should do the same my friend 

And I stay prayed up, that gets me by 

That's how I made it through my darkest times 

Yeah I'm a sinner and that's no lie 

Thank God my prayers are heard cause He knows I try 

Yeah I stay prayed up, yes I stay prayed up 

You see the only way I made it through is through God's favor 

See I stay prayed up, I stay prayed up 

You see the only way I made it through my pain is through God's favor 

I stay prayed up, that gets me by 

That's how I made it through my darkest times 

Yeah I'm a sinner and that's no lie 

Thank God my prayers are heard cause He knows I try 

Yeah I stay prayed up, yes I stay prayed up 

Oh I made it through because of God's favor
