El Roi
Life's gotta end, but when I die, man, I'm gon' fly
Still gon' try, if I fail every time
Runnin to the Lord, yeah I'm on His side
Tears that grow to trees when my mama cry
Songs that made a way when my parents fight
Runnin' through the storm just so I could shine
Eight billion in the world, but it's just you and I
Lord, as long as it's just you and I
In my pride before I met you, Lord, I said
I know the route I'm goin', and I know the life I'm livin'
Fam switchin', peep the fake, and everybody out here switchin'
I don't wanna hear it
No, I choose the life that I'm gon' live
I'm fed up, up to here
I shut you out for what you did
Cause all that's dead to me
Wish I'd had an option just to mute you
Cause this putrid that you're spewin's all my world has gotten used to
It ain't useful for my soul
So I blocked my heart with ice, and maybe, then
My death would be alright
That's what I thought
Back in 2019 when I was lost
I'll tell you how I got a new heart at the cross
I'll tell you how I got a new heart at the cross
El Roi, El Roi, Adonai
You met me in my lowest times
You met me in my broken times
When you brought me away from suicide
El Roi, El Roi, Adonai
You met me in my lowest times
You met me in my broken times
When you brought me away from suicide
No, I wasn't saved forever before you saved me for forever
Broken hearted, prideful soul
And worried all through life's endeavors
Tears could probably fill the lake I almost drowned in that October
Crossfaded times ain't change the way I felt when I was sober
Felt addicted to my pride, insecurities I hid
Cause I was broken by some people that I let come closely in
I used to say that love's a drug, I won't ever trust again
It's ironic, I met true love and now I trust Him til the end
When I was broken down, you built me up
When I looked to you in humility, Lord, you lift me up
I would never thought I'd be here cause I wanted suicide
I put a knife to my own skin when I was at the age of five
When I had dropped out as a senior in that motel bathroom
I contemplated suicide again, I hoped I'd die soon
For me to be here, now at the age of 22
It's only cause the Lord Jesus Christ rescues
El Roi, El Roi, Adonai
You met me in my lowest times
You met me in my broken times
When you brought me away from suicide
El Roi, El Roi, Adonai
You met me in my lowest times
You met me in my broken times
When you brought me away from suicide
El Roi, El Roi, Adonai
You met me in my lowest times
You met me in my broken times
When you brought me away from suicide
Still gon' try, if I fail every time
Runnin to the Lord, yeah I'm on His side
Tears that grow to trees when my mama cry
Songs that made a way when my parents fight
Runnin' through the storm just so I could shine
Eight billion in the world, but it's just you and I

You met me in my broken times
