Somethings got me by the throat
What it is I don't know
Might be this Henny and Coke
Might be this smoke
Prolly these sins I just can't let em go
Call myself reaching a goal
Call myself touched by the King
Call myself a Queen
Call my cell phone let it ring I'm sorry i cant be reached
Cuz I think I'm too busy chasin a dream
My home boy gone of a bean
My home girl sippin on lean bout to pass to me
And I ain't even scurrd but I ain't even picked up the word
Plus I'm bout as high as a bird, this is absurd
I'm too hung over for church, my mom and dad would be hurt
My spirit disturbed and I still have the nerve
To reach for the Purp while Im reaching for my pur.pose purpose
I was sinking, deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore
I was sinking, deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore
Why won't you let me great
How much more time this gone take
When I get there it's gone be late
Won't be no food for my plate
I feel like I'm runnin in place
Still I be reach for grace
They showin teeth in my face
But they don't believe that I'm great
Why are the folks in my way
Mercy all over the place
My whole existence misplaced
Lord help me to finish this race
I feel like runnin outta lines
Feel like I'm runnin outta rhymes
Feel like I'm runnin outta time
Feel like I'm outta my prime
Feel like I'm letting you down
Feel like your nowhere around
I can't develop a sound
Feel I'm bout to drown
I'm sinkin'
I was sinking, deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore
I was sinking, deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore
Lord if you get me out of this one, promise I flee from all the sinnin
I will sit down and just listen, I need another round of your wisdom
My mind needs to be free from this prison
Living with anxiety is a living hell
Fold me up and put me in your grace I know it never fails
I wanna taste forgiveness from the mercy well
The world needs to know my gift ain't just for show and tell
Just cuz I ain't on right now don't mean I'm bottom shelf
I know just a sinner right now and it ain't hard to tell
Good thing my faith is Christ and not a wishing well
They'll turn their backs on I won't do it
They done lost they grip on you I'll hold to it
Now they believe in the universe and astrology
They say there's more validity in science and psychology
Than the works of your hand and your prophecy
But I done seen it all with my own two
I'm too weak to stand on my own two
So Ima cast my cares all on you
And watch the promises that you promised'll come true
