How To Talk To God

God, if you're there
Send me an answer
I really care about
Hearing your voice
God, tell me, please
Why I'm feeling like this
Why don't I know what I'm
Doing with my life?

How come I can't
Find the right words?
How come I was raised on you
But still can't talk to you?
Give me an answer
Give me a reason
Not to hang up
Right here and now

I know there's a purpose
In what you're doing
But what I need right now
Is a shoulder to cry on
A friend to hug
A father to point out
All my mistakes
And why they're wrong

How come I can't
Find the right words?
How come I was raised on you
But still can't talk to you?
Give me an answer
Give me a reason
Not to hang up
Right here and now

I feel like all I've gotten
From you is the back of your hand
The heel of your boot
Was I damned from the start?
If you love me
Don't leave me alone
I know I've only been
Like this at 1 AM
But that doesn't mean
I don't need your help
Maybe Ive been afraid
That if I get too close to you
You'll tell me I can't make
The art that "keeps me afloat"
Or love the person that
I've loved for years
I know my office hours are
Unreasonable at best
But please, crash into my life
Take the wheel but let me
Choose the mixtape
I've avoided writing to you
'Cause I've never known
What to say till now
How come I only pray to you
When I'm bored off my old ways?
Safe to say I need to make
A couple changes in my life

I don't say it enough
But I love you
Now give me a reason
To say it again
