Pray (for Las Vegas)

I knelt down to pray,
It’s something I do everyday,
But today was different from before,
I knew it meant something more,

My eyes shed tears ,
Cause in all my years,
Of praying for forgiveness for me,
I was blinded I couldn’t see,

The pain of others around me,
During the shooting I couldn’t see,
The struggle they faced,
Cause I was stuck in my place,

So I knelt down to pray,
For someone other than me today,
I closed my eyes and hoped and prayed,
That nothing will ever happen again like what happened today .
