"Pushing It Down and Praying"

The track is transcribed in the original key, G Flat Major, and uses basic major and minor chords G♭ B♭m E♭m D♭ A♭m. There is a chance the song is in B Flat Minor because the A♭m chord sounds non-harmonic.

I doubled note values to make sightreading easier for beginners. The track isn't recorded in the 2/2 time.

"Pushing It Down and Praying" is composed with a straight rhythm in common time. It has some shuffled moments in the verses.

Accent strong beats but do it softly.

A twelve-note scale and a metered sheet music isn't capable to express the sound of "Pushing It Down and Praying" with its layered vocal and inflections of electronic instruments.

The left-hand texture is thick and makes great use of the bass register.

The right hand imitates the vocal delivery by Lizzy McAlpine: a predominant vocal style is legato.

Pitch inflections (slurred notes) should be played quietly.

Lizzy sings with soft attack, it is impossible to transcribe precisely where she starts new note.

The aesthetic value of a track is based on stepwise motion that reminds of human speech.
