" Sinner 's Prayer " consists of instrumentation from bells and whistles , and is a representation of country music with R&B and pop . The Father John Misty-assisted track finds a vulnerable Gaga wanting her man to love her as she is . The lyric , " Her love for him ai n't cheap / But it breaks just like a knockoff piece from Fulton Street " references the street in Manhattan , New York , where cheap trinkets are available . For the ninth track " Come to Mama " , Gaga sings in an affected voice , elongating her vowel enunciation . The 1970s-inspired composition has a big chorus , highlighted by a brass section and bouncy drum rhythm , and talks about accepting one another . The song has biblical references with Gaga alluding to both the Old and New Testaments . The lyric about " a forty-day flood " references Noah 's ark while " stop throwin ' stones at your sisters and your brothers " is taken from one of Jesus ' aphorisms , " Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her . " In " Hey Girl " , BloodPop and Ronson added a downtempo funk production behind Gaga and Welch 's prominent vocals . The lyrics are an " ode to friendship " . The eleventh track , " Angel Down " , was inspired by the death of Trayvon Martin , who was shot dead by George Zimmerman in 2012 . Gaga sings lyrics like " Shots were fired on the street , by the church where we used to meet " in this torch song . " Grigio Girls " was written for Sonja Durham , creative coordinator of Haus of Gaga , who had breast cancer . The song 's lyrics include , " I was 23 / She was 35 / I was spiralin ' out / And she was so alive "
