My Prayers For You (Original Song)

Details

Description

This is a deeply personal song that I wrote 2 days ago. This week has been really hard for me. I turned 20 this year, and as I'm entering my 20s, I’ve realized that not only am I getting older, but my parents and the people I love are also getting older. This thought scares me so much that this week has been the worst week in a long time.

The thought that everyone has their own clock and that everything is temporary scares me. The last bridge of this song was about a time in my life when my family would go swimming every week. I've always hated swimming, but even those activities I disliked have become extremely nostalgic years later. I wish I had realized back then that I was making memories with them, and that I should have cherished every second of it.

If this video gets 200 likes, I will release this song to streaming platforms, and I might also make a separate lyric/music video for it, as this song is deeply personal to me.

[Verse 1]
If I could write a letter to God
I'd write to keep you safe
Away from sickness and harm
'Cause I feel safe when I'm in your arms

I pray to God for more time
So I can be with you one more time
I pray that we will be fine
I don't want you to see me cry

[Chorus]
I'm scared of running out of time
That I won't be able to talk to you anymore
So please hold my hand and hug me tight
Please tell me that I will be fine

[Verse 2]
The truth is, I don't know how to be strong
'Cause you've been with me for all my life
You picked me up and righted my wrong
I'm scared of letting you go

I want you to see me succeed
So that you can be proud of me
I will pray for you every night
So don't you worry for me

[Chorus]
I'm scared of running out of time
That I won't be able to talk to you anymore
So please hold my hand and hug me tight
Please tell me that I will be fine

[Bridge]
All the memories fly to my head
of back when I was a kid
Oh I was afraid to swim ahead
So you held my hand and cheered on me

I can't believe I was so naive
'Cause I would look back on those memories
And even those hated activities
It would end up feeling so nostalgic
