A sneak peak into my new EP coming out.
lyrics
Father God, grab me and clean me up. I've been in the dumps of my sin for so long that everything I used to be and used to feel is gone. I'm taking placebo pills of emotions in hope I feel something real, but nothing true is created in me anymore.
Lord fill my cup and let me drink up so I can be filled with joy again. Allow me to create real tears and sincere smiles once more. I've cheated on you with so many of my pleasures that I'm pretty sure no water could clean this dirty body of mine. I'm a whore to sin and, if I'm honest, I enjoy it sometimes. But then I turn to see your face and feel so fake.
When I walk into that church building, I am the biggest cliché and I feel sick. I've given smiles and "God bless yous" left and right but never felt right when my heart and right side of my brain is not in the right place.
I'm pacing between my wrongs and you every night but this is one fight I'm growing tired from. I'm just about done and ready to give up, but then I'm looking up. Your light shines down onto me and I see what a real hug can feel like. I feel true love in my heart and I don't ever wanna part with You, God.
So now I'm down on my knees, pleading you to help me with the rest of this shit hole I call life because I've got a hell of a lot of strife but I kno you can help me through it and I thank you for that God. Please don't ever leave me because you're the map, compass, and tour guide and I'm lost and bleeding, near death without you.
