History repeats but made mine an exception
Couldn't go back I just needed redemption
Gave you my heart, I gave it all in
Lord have mercy you know of all of my sins
Had a heart but I broke mine in half
I gave you a part and I kept the other half
Lately when I go to sleep I can never feel rest
Guess some are so poor money is all that they have
There's something so addictive about all of these things
I'm tryna get sober from all of these pains
There's a higher power watching, I can feel it over me
Yeah If I got you, then they got nothing on me
Cause Lord I know
I know you always listen
Things will be better God willing
High hopes, high ambitions
Lord forgive me for what I've become
I'm not proud of it all
I'm ashamed of it all
I'm ashamed of it all
I got beads in my hand and faith in my heart
I'm making little changes with every salawat
I'm thankful for this chance to get up and restart
The graves are silent but they really say a lot
There's more on the line with every word I say
I send a message off and it forever replays
The devil's working overtime to get me off my lane
Sought refuge in Allah now he's out of my way
I was given a book it's been sitting on my shelf
I've been busy in my life, I've been busy with myself
Can't get caught up in this world, asking God for some help
Forehead on the floor, forgot how it felt
Forgot how it felt
Forgot how it felt
Mmmm
Cause Lord I know
I know you always listen
Things will be better God willing
High hopes, high ambitions
Lord forgive me for what I've become
I'm not proud of it all
I'm ashamed of it all
I'm ashamed of it all
