Songtext
0:11Dear God life love the universe
0:15Whatever name you like to use
0:17We ask that you allow tonight to be another one of our best shows
0:21We're grateful for what we get to do
0:23Please allow the lights to be perfect the sound to be perfect
0:27And my fingers to hit all the right keys
0:30I remember writing all these little songs in my notebook
0:33And now these people pay to see me
0:35That's just crazy you must admit
0:38Before that first deal before those hits
0:41Tone and I would wrap our arms around each other backstage
0:44And Big Sean would say words like this
0:47I didn't understand though mama raised me a atheist
0:52Which is fine but I now think maybe it's
0:55More to life than the things you can touch and feel
0:57To me God's just life and love it's real
1:01Not a old white man in the sky
1:03That's how I used to think about it but it didn't feel right
1:07It's 9:08 we getting kinda late so we open up our eyes and say
1:12Amen
1:14Amen
1:15For the life the love the spirit
1:18Amen
1:20Amen
1:21For the things my eyes don't see
1:24Amen
1:26Amen
1:27For the ones no longer with us
1:30Amen
1:32Amen
1:34Please say a prayer for me
1:37Dear Jesus Allah Krishna Buddha
1:40Whatever name you like to say
1:43Please grant your heavenly love and sweet peace
1:45To the family of Jessica Joe May
1:48Six years ago she wrote me and said she was my biggest fan
1:52And she wouldn't go to sleep if I didn't hit her back
1:55So I said thanks boo go to sleep you got school
1:58A friendship started but ended too soon
2:01Just a child she used to tweet me every day
2:04Draw me little pictures say I hope you feel okay
2:07I bet she never knew that I was going through some s**t
2:10My family was pissed at me and I almost quit
2:13On that November night 'til I saw what she tweeted
2:16Keep making good music that was just what I needed
2:19You know I never even told her thank you and I don't know why
2:23'Cause on August 26th Jessica died
2:26I never thought that some fan on Twitter
2:28Would give me a broken heart but Lord I miss her
2:31When you opening the gates up don't forget her
2:34And save me a spot soon I'll be right there with her
2:37Amen
2:38Amen amen
2:40For the life the love the spirit
2:43Amen
2:45Amen
2:46For the things my eyes don't see
2:49Amen
2:51Amen
2:52For the ones no longer with us
2:55Amen
2:57Amen
2:59Please say a prayer for me
3:02Dear Ra Jehova Dao Brahma
3:05Whichever name that you prefer
3:08My big sister is a real light in the world
3:11So yes Lord this is for her
3:13I used to think she was crazy
3:15All that hippie s**t that she was on
3:17Tying yourself to trees man I thought it was wrong
3:20While I was flying 'round the world tryna get famous
3:23You volunteered in New Orleans when the hurricane hit
3:27Helping displaced kids
3:29And people interview me while she remains nameless
3:33Hmm I didn't always get it
3:35You lived in such a bad hood that I was 'fraid to visit
3:39Uh but on the side of your crib
3:41You started a garden for all them little kids
3:44And you taught 'em to grow fruits and veggies for they families
3:48And here I am worrying about a GRAMMY
3:51I'll never forget that February night
3:53I was in the studio with J. Cole they were prepping the mic
3:57You hit me with that text saying we needed to speak
4:00I thought you were pregnant I was prepping a speech
4:03But it was something different that you had to say
4:06Michael I'm in love with a woman I'm gay
4:09Searching for the words in my head
4:11When I found 'em this is what I said
4:14I just want you to know that I love you
4:17That's no matter what Mom and Dad do too
4:20And I got your back until my last day
4:23And the universe does too that's why I say
4:26Amen
4:28Amen
4:30For the life the love the spirit
4:32Amen
4:34Amen
4:36For the things my eyes don't see
4:38Amen
4:40Amen
4:42For the ones no longer with us
4:44Amen
4:46Amen
4:48Please say a prayer for me
