Kesha - Praying (Official Video)

Am I dead? Or is this one of those dreams? Those horrible dreams that seems like it last forever If I am alive, why? Why if there is a God a whatever, something, somewhere. Why have I been abandoned by everyone and everything I've ever known I've ever loved. Stranded. What is the lesson? What is the point? God give me a sign or I have to give up. I can't do this anymore. Please just let me die. Being alive hurts too much. Well you almost had me fooled Told me that I was nothing without you Oh after everything you've done I can thank you for how strong I have become Cuz 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 as I wish you farewell I hope you're somewhere praying, praying I hope your soul is changing, changing I hope you find your peace Falling on your knees Praying I'm proud of who I am No more monsters I can breathe again And you said that I was done Well you were wrong and now the best is yet to come Cuz I can make it on my own I don't need you, I've 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 as I wish you farewell I hope you're somewhere praying, praying I hope your soul is changing, changing I hope you find your peace Falling on your knees Praying Sometimes I pray for you at night Someday maybe you'll see the light Ohh some say in life you're gonna get what you give But some things only God can forgive I hope you're somewhere praying, praying I hope your soul is changing, changing I hope you find your peace Falling on your knees Praying

Now THIS is how you make a diss track.

Is Praying already my most played song of the week?

You bet your ass it is

Oh my goodness. That F6 at 4:20 was totally unexpected.

She has way more vocal potential than I ever imagined. If she gets some training, she could be one of the strongest pop sopranos of this generation.

Nice song too and nice video. Good job Keisha!!

Okay, wow. This left me shook. I was never a big fan on Kesha before, she had some bops but I never warmed to her music for the most part, mainly due to the production Dr Luke is known for and the whole talk-singing thing she did bothered me a lot.

This is beautiful. I had no idea she could sing like that, that F6 caught me completely off guard. It feels like she's finally broke free of Sony's prison and is now in a much better place, this feels like a real triumph for her. I hope this becomes a hit.

Welcome back Kesha. Honestly can't say I've missed her but nobody should go through what happened to her and I actually really like this song.

[u/potrap]

Description of the video confirms the album is called Rainbow.

EDIT: More details - video was directed by Jonas Akerlund, song was produced by Ryan Lewis and Ben Abraham according to Kesha's Lenny letter

Say to me now that the girl is untalented people.

I had no idea Kesha's vocals sounded like this??? I've heard the acoustic of Blow but I've never heard her vocals sound so strong

[u/[deleted]]

Fav lyrics??? Mine are "you were wrong and now the best is yet to come" and "when I'm finished they won't even know your name" but I'm only on my fifth listen. And the whole chorus. Kesha has killed me.
