I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I'm not known as the rapper type
But I like
To write from the soul
It's my goal
To let you know
Life brings us perils, challenges than pain
Feeling all the pressure makes a man go insane
It's a test that sometimes gets the best of me
So I pray for a better day hoping to be blessed
Speaking from the heart while I say it with my chest
While the addictions that I am fighting try to take away my breath
The lessons never seem to be learned
So I yearn for a Shepard that could handle all my pressure
There's always a price to pay from alluring treasure
Broken beyond measure for a guilt-ridden pleasure
Let that sink in like a needle through your skin
Addiction comes at you like a moving shark fin
I get on my knees and I pray and ask
Dear God, show me a better way
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
Bouncing right back
Got to have that tunnel vision
Swerving left and right
Through the night
Head-on collision
Distracted from the bright lights
Blinded by my sight
Not seeing that my actions would alter my life
But I held myself accountable
I knew it wasn't right
Bettering my life is an ongoing fight
So I carry my shield
Armor gleaming pure white
And I pray
Dear Father, elevate me to a new height
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
I've got to let you go although
I don't really want to
