| Father, I’m going through some heavy things
|
| It seems like this world ain’t getting any better
|
| The more we try to get closer to You
|
| The farther we run from Your throne
|
| I’ve spent so many nights wonderin' when will it end
|
| When will the day come when happiness begins
|
| I’m running the race but it seems too hard to win
|
| I’m sick of mourning my stomach is throwing up in the morning
|
| I’m calling for help and watching it melt away
|
| My heart’s been put on display and put away
|
| In many ways, many times I told myself it was ok And anger was the price that was paid
|
| While these faded dreams just screamed to bring them home
|
| The burden was too heavy I kept running from the throne
|
| I can’t take it any longer
|
| I can taste my spirit hunger
|
| God please help me get home
|
| Chorus:
|
| Lord though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
|
| I’m not scared cause You’re holding my breath
|
| I only fear that I don’t have enough time left
|
| To tell the world that there’s no time left, Lord please
|
| Lord though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
|
| I’m not scared cause You’re holding my breath
|
| I only fear that I don’t have enough time left
|
| To tell the world that there’s no time left
|
| I’ve come to terms that I’m burning both sides of the rope
|
| And I’m hoping that self-control would kick in before I’m choking off
|
| The sin that be destroying every fiber I got
|
| I need the Lord in every way I’ll never make it I’m not
|
| Going back to the way I was before Christ in my life
|
| I couldn’t do it I would lose it there’s no point to the fight
|
| And I’m writing this song, for the people who don’t belong
|
| I pray away the pain you feel from all the things that went wrong
|
| Inside a life that’s filled with anger and disappointment
|
| Cause daddy treated you weaker than all of the other kids
|
| It’s annoying and I feel for all of you who wanna give up You feel stuck I feel the same way Lord help us stay up You couldn’t pay me to abandon the idea of true hope
|
| That I could make it through this life into a place where there’s no crying
|
| I’m dying to find You with open arms when I go Knowing You love me and You waiting to give rest to my soul
|
| Lord I don’t know what I’m struggling for
|
| There’s got to be more
|
| Than this life I know
|
| But still I’m here fighting to never give up I find strength in Your love
|
| And You will see me through |
