Chloe Bailey “Pray It Away” Lyrics/Song Breakdown
In verse 1, Chloe sings about trying to heal and get over a relationship that hurt her emotions. However, in her healing phase, she is full of rage for her ex whom she regards as worthless, and a time waster. Chloe’s emotional state worsens when she hears his name or sees something that reminds her of the hurt she suffered in the relationship.
In verse 2, Chloe sings about being triggered to want to hurt her ex when situations or her mental condition worsens. When she is very furious, she has no control over her actions. She says she may just be violent.
In the pre-chorus, Chloe sings about her inability to share her depression/frustrations towards her ex with her friends cause they all hate him. She is acting weird, having negative thoughts towards her ex with the urge to act.
In the chorus, Chloe is looking for a way to suppress the violence she is planning to unleash on her ex. She wants to get rid of those thoughts, so, she opts to take them to God, or just go to church, share with someone, and seek help on how to handle the matter.
In the Bridge, Chloe is fighting the impulse to act violently toward her ex. So, she instead decides to hand it over to God.

Intro
Instrumental
Verse 1
Fv ck n#gga, fv ck n#gga, fv ck n#gga
I just wanna hear from a fvck n#gga
I just start healing
Now when I hear his name, I get more triggered
My feelings, my feelings, my feelings
They really got hurt by a fvck n#gga
Damn, I waste this time for nothing
I faked it for nothing.
Pre-Chorus
Can’t talk to my friends ’cause they hate you too
And if the option’s violence, don’t make me choose it
God knows my heart, I’m wildin’, wildin’
So close to doin’ somethin’
Chorus
Maybe I should go and take it to church (Uh)
And wash it away ’cause I want that n#gga to hurt
But I’ma just pray it away before I give him what he deserves first
Ah (Ah ah), Ah ah (Ah ah), oh oh oh oh
Take it to church
Verse 2
I am not tripping, I know he disloyal
Should’ve lеt him trick on me—-
‘Causе when things go bad, that’s when I get crazy
And when I get angry, the gun is off safety
You know I’m not perfect, I’m no Virgin Mary
I feel what I feel so my actions may vary
That’s on my soul, I lost my halo, my halo is gone
I’m on the road
Pre-chorus
Hey, God knows my heart, I’m wildin’
So close to doing something.
Chorus
Maybe I should go and take it to church
Ooh ooh, away ’cause I want that n#gga to hurt
But I’ma just pray it away
Before I give him what he deserves first
Ah (Ah ah), Ah ah (Ah ah)
Fvck n#gga, f vck n#gga, fvck n#gga
I just wanna hear from you
Bridge
Lord knows I’m trying, I pray every night
But I can’t help that I’m messed up in the head
Tryna be saved, but you gonna need saving
‘Cause you got someone else in my bed
Call on the Lord
Down on my knees, yeah, I’ve been here before
Don’t wanna do something that I’ll regret, I’ll regret, I’ll regret it again
Regret it, regret it again
Outro
So I take it to church, so I take it to church
Take it to church (Church)
So I take it to church
Take it to church
Oh, oh oh oh
Take it to church, take it to church
