Have Mercy on Me

Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me

Lord forgive me for I have sinned Then add vice just to cope the issues I have within
I think about a new beginning but got my fears of the end
I know you making calls and got an answer from some of my friends
I'm sorry I'm not home
Not ready for that conversation or sitting by the phone
Like you got a radio stationed
Hope you hear me out
Cause lately I been lacking patience
Pencil it down to my past cause I'm wishing I could erase it
Find inner peace I mean trace it
Put my heart on the canvas
Got the nerve
How dare I act like you left me out there abandon
I know you been on my heels like I'm trying to make it to Kansas
While I'm walking around acting like I already know the answers
Can't Sway me
If I don't let nobody close they can't betray me
No matter how they look or feel they can portray me
My life guarded
Drowning in my sorrows
Hoping you can save me

Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me

You see how I'm speaking to you but I barely speak to my family
They speak to you too but never could understand me
Hope you make that translation them burdens I got to carry
We all start out the same it's the results that vary
Creates separation
And it's sick
Put me out in search of medications
To get lit
And it's all on the table
I remember days when I wasn't able
It felt like I needed a reservation just to exist
Instead of chasing you I was chasing the high
For every cloud in the air there was less space in the sky
Can't say that I gave it up
Sometimes I'm stuck in my ways
It's best that I'm being honest
Probably shortened days
They said honor your mother
But I put her through a lot
And I'm just like my father
And she put that on my pops
And all they ever wanted was to see me at the top
I remember when I was reaching
Can't remember when I stopped

Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord, On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
On me oh lord
Have mercy on me
