Half of Me |
| Hook |
| Half of me just walked away/ |
| And the other half is trying not to stay/ |
| Help me see the hope that’s past the rain/ |
| Restore the joy within me and/ |
| Speak to me thru the pain/ |
| Verse 1 |
| This kind of news would make a grown man cry/ |
| The kind of man who knows the answers but he still asks why/ |
| Why are you down cast oh my soul/ |
| My team expects so much from me, I can’t let them know/ |
| That I’m not finding joy and my faith’s dying slow/ |
| I gotta go on preaching I gotta go on with the show/ |
| Gotta grace the stage, I gotta make the crowd say oh/ |
| Only problem is I’m not believing in the words I flow/ |
| So I look to sky I know the hour has come/ |
| Please remove this thorn from me cuz my soul feels numb/ |
| I got these liars in my head asking where my faiths gone/ |
| I don’t feel happy and I don’t even care to fake for them/ |
| They think me showing pain is the denial of Christ/ |
| Because my tears up in my food all day and night/ |
| Half of me hopes in the Lord and knows I’ll praise again/ |
| The other half wants an excuse to wallow in my sin/ |
| They say count it all joy, I got questions about how/ |
| Theres answers after death but I need answers right now/ |
| I know this to shall pass, whether slow or fast/ |
| Loosen my grip on the world and for you I grasp/ (2x) |
| Verse 2 |
| He feels he fled temptation to long, so He’s tried of fighting/ |
| He no longer finds his marriage exciting/ |
| She’s drowning in depression in the rain/ |
| She can’t maintain, Lord can you help her ease the pain/ |
| A father gets news that his newborn son has complications/ |
| He has no idea what he’s faced with/ |
| He thinks no prom, no college, no athletic fun / |
| No matter his disabilities I’m not ashamed of my son/ |
| Lord I pray that when his days on earth are done/ |
| He’ll understand that you and the son are one/ |
| One families prays together for financial needs/ |
| Father feels inadequate cuz he aint worked in weeks/ |
| He been laid off he may loose their car and home/ |
| He thinks what good is a man who cant provide for his own/ |
| He sees the pain in wife and children’s eyes/ |
| Contemplating suicide cuz dead men cry/ |
| Lord give him eyes to see past the pain/ |
| That his value in life, it doesn’t come with things/ |
| I know this to shall pass, whether slow or fast/ |
| They are loosing their grip I hope for you they grasp/ (2x) |
| Verse 3 |
| I wont let this current pain master me/ |
| What is pain actually/ |
| Lets not address it causally but I don’t want to fear pain/ |
| Lets count it all joy its is gain/ |
| Dear life is in my palms &I'm holding on |
| strength is an illusion right along with this calm that I’m on and I’m feeling |
| far gone- |
| Cause half of me is hoping that my eyes won’t open in morn' |
| Sorrow is my tongue hear my moans |
| I’m eager for redemption but I know |
| There’s more than meets the eye to the thorns in my side |
| So I cry refusing all the lies |
| Pain is my ally when aligned to who you are |
| There’s more to my scars so I know there’s more to yours |
| I’m resting in your arms |
| I’m resting in the your wrists |
| I’m pressing with a limp pain is purposed through your gift |
| I’m strengthening my grip may this faith in u persist |
| And when this half insists I pray u breathe in me lament |
| Amazing is your grace cause while I’m holding you it seems |
| The truth of the matter is your really holding me |
