Lyrics

Sunset in cool September southern sky
God, He’s painting pictures like my mother’s lullaby
She used to sing so softly voice was butter shake the demons
But now she sings to my songs hoping it may stop the bleeding
I wanna be the one to take away the pain inside her
So I curse at God cuz He said He’s her one provider
And it’s fucked up but I don’t know if I can trust Him
But still He’s holding onto me as I attempt to muster these
Melodies they’re giving me a tiny glimpse of Heaven
Now He’s the one who says, “Son, get your rest in.”
You don’t have to do a thing to make Me smile
Cuz when I’m lookin at you I do cuz you’re My child
Even in the longest nights there is a light that breaks the darkness
In Him every broken heart is healed
So I will trust Him still
I’ve got a father and they tell me that I look just like him
And when I look into the mirror I see shit that’s frightening
Cuz I see him and I know that God, He truly loves him
But I’m not certain that the men I see believe it’s of Him
And not some stupid kinda shit that I could somehow offer
Cuz if I’m honest I would rather be among the scoffers
Cuz it’s easier to vomit lies than stomach truth
But still I hear the Father say, “Son, I’m proud of you.”
Never would’ve made it
I never could’ve made it
Without You, I would have lost it all
But now I see You were there for me
Never would’ve made it
I never could’ve made it
Without You, I would have lost it all
But now I see You were there for me
