Pentatonix - Praying Lyrics






Well, you almost had me fooled
Tell me that I was nothing without you
And after everything you've done
I can thank you for how strong I have become

'Cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell
I had to learn how to fight for myself
And we both know all the truth I could tell
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell

I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees, prayin'

I'm proud of who I am
No more monsters, I can breathe again
And you said that I was done
You were wrong and now the best is yet to come
I can make it on my own
I don't need you, I found a strength I've never known
I'll bring thunder, and I'll bring rain
When I'm finished, they won't even know your name

You brought the flames and you put me through hell
I had to learn how to fight for myself
And we both know all the truth I could tell
I'll just say this is I wish you farewell

I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees, prayin'

Oh, sometimes I pray for you at night
Someday (someday), maybe you'll see the light (see the light)
Oh, some say, in life, you're gonna get what you give (get what you give)
But some things only God can forgive

I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees, prayin'

  1. b.... ....

    3:02 *cries*
    And those harmonies at the end, they are literally all angels and Mitch is just, I have no words for that A 🙌🏼

  2. D.... A....

    I just heard this and fell in love with it.

  3. I.... E....

    @PTXofficial when is the music video coming out??????

  4. W.... M....

    Kesha is quaking

  5. R.... G....

    Was so shocked when Mitch hit the high note
    I luved the high note SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!

  6. K.... M....

    Mitch is my idol and the high note he does is something ive been wanting to accomplish. I hope i can sing at least something similar to him. He is amazing and his singing his like the light I want to reach at the end of a dark tunnel.

  7. A.... G....

    Am I the only that wished this was a music video

  8. K.... J....

    I cried at kesha all the oceans afor the first time and I promised my self That it won't happen. Again. But that was a choke it stroked me I cried the ocean again

  9. T.... S....

    Imagine watching the music video and seeing Scott singing his verse in tears.

  10. G.... R....

    When's the "Evolution of Kesha" medley gonna happen? :D

  11. k.... p....

    You are so amazing and are proud sounds make your voice heard from you are so amazing and are proud

  12. T.... C....

    My God.. Have never heard the original and after hearing this I don't want to. I don't think anyone could do this better than these talented group. What a mix of such different glorious voices. ( THIS IS MUSIC) Have recently come across these guys and have several tracks that just send chills thru me EVERYTIME I hear them. Sounds of silence is one close to my heart especially but my God I would love to jam with these guys.

  13. P.... m....

    They should go on tour and just do songs they've never done live before. Not all of them of course because a lot of songs they don't sing on tour because it would kill their (especially Mitch with his high notes) voices, like this song. But that would be really be cool😂

  14. J.... T....

    UNDERATED BANGEE

  15. E.... W....

    AHHHHHHHHH I didn’t know they sung this song

  16. A.... L....

    That harmony at the end is everything

  17. �.... ....

    me: *listening*

    mitch: *hits high note*

    me: holy shit-

  18. j.... h....

    I knew they'd do a Kesha cover sooner or later. Also Mitch, best high note ever.

  19. A.... G....

    I screamed when i read PRAYING
    Like
    OW👏MY👏GAWD🙀🙀😩😪

  20. B.... R....

    Fuck can they do anything but “Sound of Silence” right?
    Terrible.
    Jesus...I think I hate them minus the exception of one song.

    And their Queen covers would make Freddie die all over again.

  21. L.... W....

    Oh mitch what a angelic voice 😭👑😍

  22. C.... S....

    What a gifted singing voice Mitch has

  23. J.... S....

    [Verse 1]
    Well, you almost had me fooled
    Tell me that I was nothing without you
    And after everything you've done
    I can thank you for how strong I have become

    [Pre-Chorus]
    'Cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell
    I had to learn how to fight for myself
    And we both know all the truth I could tell
    I'll just say this is I wish you farewell

    [Chorus]
    I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
    I hope your soul is changin', changin'
    I hope you find your peace
    Falling on your knees, prayin'

    [Verse 2]
    I'm proud of who I am
    No more monsters, I can breathe again
    And you said that I was done
    You were wrong and now the best is yet to come
    I can make it on my own
    I don't need you, I found a strength I've never known
    I'll bring thunder, and I'll bring rain
    When I'm finished, they won't even know your name


    [Pre-Chorus]
    You brought the flames and you put me through hell
    I had to learn how to fight for myself
    And we both know all the truth I could tell
    I'll just say this is I wish you farewell

    [Chorus]
    I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
    I hope your soul is changin', changin'
    I hope you find your peace
    Falling on your knees, prayin'

    [Bridge]
    Oh, sometimes I pray for you at night
    Someday (someday), maybe you'll see the light (see the light)
    Oh, some say, in life, you're gonna get what you give (get what you give)
    But some things only God can forgive

    [Chorus]
    I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
    I hope your soul is changin', changin'
    I hope you find your peace
    Falling on your knees, prayin'

  24. A.... ....

    Yessss Kirsten, slay all dayyyyy. They're all killin it on this one.

  25. M.... W....

    I felt every single note that Scott sang. The way he starts and actually sounds vulnerable and then goes all out with the freaking power. Kirstin and Mitch slay too with the belting and the high note, but omg, Scott!

  26. D.... M....

    Scott's so so good.
    Mitch's amazing.
    Kirstie's a really beautiful voice.
    Matt's absolutely talented.
    Kevin's fundamental.

    D.... M....

    Hotel? Trivago.

    D.... M....

    Now that is music theory, now we talking

    D.... M....

    @Fred Marion Cool, this is my essay. 😅👌🏻

  27. M.... K....

    OMG MITCH

  28. M.... K....

    Omg Scott????! I don't know the originsl but this voices make it angelical

  29. T.... ....

    This is my favorite song from this album! Everyone just shines so much in this truly emotional work of art.

  30. v.... _....

    I knew I was going to cry after this, why would I do that to myself?..

  31. R.... A....

    Why am I crying

  32. D.... C....

    Wtf! Why Kirstie didn't sing the whole song?? Are you kidding me, Pentatonix? She could sing the whole song and hit that high note. But versatility never change, it's always Mitch and Scott. Is this Superfruit or something???

    D.... C....

    Each member has a special part, like a puzzle, you can put the pieces together and forget the bigger picture, but if you put them in the right spot, you get the bigger picture. Imagine that but with a song

  33. d.... ....

    I’m the beat boxer for my school’s group and this is by far my favorite after all the songs we’ve done. I miss Kevin

  34. S.... H....

    Well, you almost had me fooled
    Tell me that I was nothing without you
    And after everything you've done
    I can thank you for how strong I have become
    'Cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell
    I had to learn how to fight for myself
    And we both know all the truth I could tell
    I'll just say this is "I wish you farewell"
    I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
    I hope your soul is changin', changin'
    I hope you find your peace
    Falling on your knees, prayin'
    I'm proud of who I am
    No more monsters, I can breathe again
    And you said that I was done
    You were wrong and now the best is yet to come
    I can make it on my own
    And I don't need you, I found a strength I've never known
    I'll bring thunder, I'll bring rain
    When I'm finished, they won't even know your name
    You brought the flames and you put me through hell
    I had to learn how to fight for myself
    And we both know all the truth I could tell
    I'll just say this is "I wish you farewell"
    I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
    I hope your soul is changin', changin'
    I hope you find your peace
    Falling on your knees, prayin'
    And sometimes, I pray for you at night
    Someday, maybe you'll see the light
    Whoa, some say, in life, you're gonna get what you give
    But some things only God can forgive
    Yeah (I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin')
    I hope your soul is changin', changin'
    I hope you find your peace
    Falling on your knees, prayin'

  35. S.... I....

    GET IT KIRSTIE!! 2:38

    "you brought the flames and you put me through hell. i had to learn how to fight for myself"

  37. O.... ....

    Jesus Christ Hotline vine

  38. y.... b....

    Really getting tired of the Scott show 🙄 can literally anyone else sing the lead for more that 20 seconds?

  39. S.... L....

    That was so good

  40. S.... R....

    Does Scott in the beginning of this song remind anyone of Hugh Jackman in the beginning of "From Now On." It's EVERYTIME for me, I'm like "Hugh? OH, Scott, damn. YEsssss!!"

  41. I.... C....

    MITCH QUEEN YES HIT THAT HIGH NOTE I JUST DIED

  42. E.... B....

    When Mitch does dat high note you be like:😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

  44. D.... C....

    The best part was Kirstin's solo!!! Amazing!!!! 😍😍

  45. V.... M....

  51. K.... C....

    I'm waiting for a live version of this

  52. A.... D....

    who have heard this song a thousand times and havent heard the orignel

  53. C.... S....

    That was unneeded Mitch but I still wanted it thanks for literally murdering me

  54. F.... S....

    After reading these comments, I’m counting on Mitch’s high note to be damned fantastic.

    Edit: Mkay I can die in peace now

  55. C.... M....

    My favorite parts of their songs are the 5 part harmonies

  56. Q.... J....

    IM MARRIED TO ALL OF THEM AND AVI

  57. G.... ....

    Kind of wish they did a little bit better...sorry, just my opinion...The original song was so powerful and it could bring you to tears, but this sounds like they kind of, pardon my french, half-assed it. Sorry, I'm not a fan of their new stuff...

    G.... ....

    Don't see how it's half-assed

    G.... ....

    Not to seem rude but the original isnt very emotional to me either. Is it just me? Because songs like don't me cry

  58. C.... W....

    Mitch’s high note got me right in the feels

  59. h.... h....

    Just great

  60. A.... H....

    I really like Pentatonix but I sincerely dislike the choices behind this song.

    This song is about a woman singing to her rapist how she is hopeful that he will become a better person.

    There is no need for a man to be belting out "IHOPEYOU'RESOMEWHEREPRAYING"

    There is no need for men anywhere in this song.

    The men of Pentatonix should have just stayed quiet.

    A.... H....

    😑😑

    A.... H....

    You do know the men are supposed to illustrate instruments right? Besides from Scott and Mitch. Just because it about a woman in the original doesn't mean the male singers shouldn't sing this song. Like there please ty of male singers on YouTube who have done this song, is there a problem with them?🤧😭😭

    A.... H....

    It’s not just women who can be in abusive relationships. Men can also be in abusive relationships, both gay and straight.

    A.... H....

    Alana Halper Fuck yourself. Don’t belittle men in abusive relationships.

  61. T.... P....

    I just want to go see my family I'm Be. Your Coming Up With All my heart is the best hope you have the right way to the point of view of the big deal about you PENTATONIX need you now I'm get me please please I'm begging you please make me feel so lonely without you by your house in

  62. T.... P....

    I'm so proud of you guys are just too cute for your own business and I love your new album is So AMAZING to See My Family Right now is to make the best of luck with your own business units in the world to me and my name PTX. PRESENTS TOP. POP. VOL. 1

  63. T.... L....

    Shooketh but like good shooketh

  64. a.... ....

    A song has never made me cry before then pentatonix came along and was like “howdy buddy”

  65. �.... E....

    They sing better then the originals. I miss you Avi. Keep making great covers pentatonix. When Mitch's high note happened I cried.

  66. D.... J....

    They need to perform this live

  67. M.... D....

    300k views wow congrats

  68. K.... P....

    This song is inspiring in so many levels...after an abusive and humiliating relationship, this song resumes perfectly how someone should feel after leaving the devil behind you.

  69. S.... S....

    Jeez what DOESN'T Sony own here

  70. J.... H....

    Totally speachless... I may have cried #dontjudgeme #purebeauty #keshaaddict

  71. S.... ....

    A lower octave was added to the bass lineZ I dislike

  72. I.... ....

    High note should've solo. But doesn't matter you guys are still bomb

  73. E.... -....

    I love that you can do anything with this song same with rise from Katy Perry (superfruit cover) starts low/calm and chilling, slower getting higher and going back and forth with simple to intense. Scott bringing so much soul and emotion to it. Then high and and simple for Kirstie (kindof imagined her being the character sitting at the foot of her bed singing about bullies in a movie kind of) then intense again.

  74. S.... x....

    Ahhhhhh!!!!! This is the best! Com.ent if you thought this was the absolute perfect cover. Ever. #PentatonixIsAwesome 😍

  75. N.... W....

    Holy moley

    *Immediately goes to iTunes*

  76. X.... E....

    Part of me kinda wants them to do a K-pop song

  77. S.... o....

    Matt was the best part of this version of the song... I was not expecting to hear a bass solo at the start. Kirsty should have sung more of the song too - especially the high note.

  78. F.... B....

    This song brings me to my knees for personal reasons, and Scott has the emotion in his voice. He killed it ❤️

  79. P.... E....

    Yasss Kirstin @ 3:00 belt that note out and send us all to heaven!

  80. S.... K....

    Woa I love this cover

  81. W.... B....

    dang mitch hit that high note!

  82. A.... F....

    Pentatonix is freaking AMAZING!!! 😍😍😍

  83. s.... l....

    Omg they did so good!!

  84. C.... D....

    Wow. Thats all i have is wow😃❤

  85. P.... G....

    This whole album, which is totally kick-ass, was actually published ON my birthday, this shows God is real lol

  86. D.... N....

    3:17 blend was beautiful

  87. M.... K....

    Damn I get shivers every time I hear that low note at the beginning

  88. S.... M....

    I have no idea what the new guy's name is

    S.... M....

    Matt Sallee is the new bass singer.

  89. L.... W....

    Killed it

  90. I.... ....

    I am a boy and I sing Mitchell’s high notes because I can hit them and Mitch is my fav PTX PERSON

  91. J.... M....

    Mitch's high note is everything 👌👍

  92. J.... M....

    This honestly makes me think about my grandpa I love him:'(

  93. m.... !....

    This wasn't my favorite ptx cover

    m.... !....

    Abbi Fleming you're not my favorite ptx cover

    m.... !....

    Do you even YouTube bro? Yes i do YouTube though, and I'm sorry that I offended you but I am entitled to my opinion.

    m.... !....

    Ok...? Tf

  94. m.... l....

    3:02 when you can't hear if its kirstie or mitch

  95. A.... S....

    Damn that high note
    Good job Mitch!

  96. K.... G....

    I love PTX so much Mitch is my favorite thought i can relate to him.

  97. A.... M....

    The emotion every single one of them put behind this song is unreal. Like lets not even talk about scott, and when mitch starts singing " I'm proud of who I am" I cry a little, and don't even get me started on when kirstie starts singing, she's always been good but she absolutely slayed this album, I'm glad she got 2 solos.
