(Intro)
Yeah...
It's kind of hard some times you know you gotta confess what you feeling...
I'm crying out for you...
I don't know what to do...
(Verse)
A daily fight is what I'm seeing in life/
I'm good at doing wrong/
But struggle with doing right/
I'm taught I should forgive/
So why do I feel strife/
And though I'm not supposed to yield temptation is what I like/
It's crazy my heart hurts/
But on the outside/
I'm forced to wear a disguise/
And really can't show the signs/
Of a person that needs help/
So I compromise my own feelings/
Steady keeping them on the inside/
Feeling like nobody even cares whether I live or die/
I know d**h is guaranteed but in my hood it multiplies/
It's sad a full like to some people is 25/
Whether they're sitting in a cell or just gone before their time/
In my mind I try to escape what I view through my eyes/
But still end up at a place where I break down and cry/
With tears deeper than the water on the lake shore drive/
Wish I could take off like a plane/
Flying high in the sky/
And leave the drama behind that's always bringing me down/
They say it's easy to smile/
But it's like I don't know how cause sunshine is hidden behind all of the rain clouds/
Can't wait to make it to heaven/
Feels like I'm in hell now/
On my knees saying loud that I'm ready for change/
Cause I'm so sick and tired of living life this way/
As your humble servant God I pray/
Open your windows and send a million blessings my way/
(Hook)
I'm crying out for you...
I don't know what to do...
Please save me from this pain...
Oh Lord take me away...
(Verse)
It's so hard without somebody in your corner/
Your peers against you/
And fears convince you/
To not trust anyone/
Cause you trained yourself to think that everybody somehow is the same anyway/
And I can't be a people pleaser/
Wasn't created that way/
Since I exude confidence/
People constantly say that I'm arrogant and won't get far if I act that way/
But I blame my attitude on you cause that's how I was created/
Made me the warrior I am/
And that goes without saying/
Tryna be the best man that I can/
But people still keep on hating/
It's a good thing that I'm living life for me/
In spite of all the people/
That got me under scrutiny/
Their words will never cause me harm/
Cause I'm far from weak/
I'm just tryna keep my cool before I knock out their teeth/
And that's another reason God that I'm making this plea/
I pray the temper that I have doesn't get me in trouble/
And another thing while I'm traveling up in the streets/
Protect me from all danger that I can see/
Even keep me from what I can't cause I know that your able/
If I have to protect myself/
Give me the strength you gave David/
On my knees saying loud that I'm ready for change/
Cause I'm so sick and tired of living life this way/
As your humble servant God I pray/
Open your windows and send all your favor my way/
(Hook)
(Verse)
Despite of all my backsliding or habits of lying/
You've never let me suffer/
Always came to my rescue/
Even in the bad times/
I was living so reckless/
You kept on shining ya light/
And were my constant protection/
Through all my life lessons/
Without a question/
I knew my help came from you Lord/
Without guessing/
So as you helped me many times before/
Keeping your love with me/
Is all I'm asking for/
(Hook)2x
