Hold My Hand

Hold my hand
I feel like breaking
Lord
My love
You keep on taking
No
I can't
Keep going
Take me
Hold my hand
Til I stop shaking
It's been so hard since I heard the news
I can tell you're gone, I can't feel you here
Heaven must have got much better
But that just don't make it fair
'Cause it feels
Like I'm living in Hell
Like the whole world is moving
But I'm standing so still
IS THIS FOR REAL?!
I can barely take it
Life been breaking me lately, that's why I'm scared of angels
That's why I used to wear my demons like my favorite blanket
I ain't asking God for strength no more, I'm afraid of breaking
Trying not to think about it like I'm made of paper
Not the kind that takes you places or the fire wood
The kind that cuts you if you touch it
Then it makes you angry
Instead of painting a picture or tryna write a book
You just wad it up, and throw it away
Pour another drink from the bottle I swim in
I guess I'll roll another blunt, and smoke out the pain
Feel like throwing up
But not cuz of liquor
Oh God what the hell have you done to my family
Ha yeah
You gotta be trippin
We know that nobody's perfect
I know that I been a mission
But leave my family out of it they deserve peace
Don't take no one else from us, Lord you can burn me
At least I know Aleesa wit you cuz she earned wings
And I ain't ever had no problem with you, but it sure seems
Like you gotta issue wit me, yeah cuz every damn move
That I make to set my family up, you set us back two
I know that you shaping us
Taking us to better places
But for once God, stop making it about you
Just for once Lord
Please let Satan take our places
And if it's a fight you really want
Then where my round 2?
Hold my hand
I feel like breaking
Lord
My love
You keep on taking
No
I can't
Keep going
Take me
Hold my hand
Til I stop shaking
It's been so hard since I heard the news
I can tell you're gone, I can't feel you here
Heaven must have got much better
But that just don't make it fair
'Cause it feels
Like I'm living in Hell
Like the whole world is moving
But I'm standing so still
IS THIS FOR REAL?!
And I been fighting the tears
But I cry when I look in the mirror
Like I'm embarrassed
I can lie to my parents and I can lie to my peers
And say I'm okay, but I can't lie to myself
And I been grinding so hard it's like I'm riding the rails
Barely skating by, but I'm fine, climbing the stairs
Meanwhile time is passing us by, and I ain't been there
They're on the stairway to heaven
I'm navigating through hell
Yeah we work so hard, been gone so long
Time don't slow down, it keep on flying
I'm so tired, I feel so cold
Can't show no love, they keep on dying
Feel so weak but act so strong
Hold on, even though I don't feel like trying
The tears fall, can't hold back no more
Keep on going even though I can't stop crying
Hold my hand
I feel like breaking
Lord
My love
You keep on taking
No
I can't
Keep going
Take me
Hold my hand
Til I stop shaking
