I Need Help (feat. Nick Day)

Jesus, please have mercy on me

Have mercy on me

Have mercy on my family

Mercy on me

I got the weight of the world on my back

Feet on the table, my balance is bad

Ain't got no cape but I'm fresh off the leash

Everyone's telling me

I need help (ooh, ooh)

I need help (ooh, ooh)

I need help (ooh, ooh)

I need help (ooh, ooh)

Yeah

I need help (ooh, ooh)

Admitting that was the first step

Had to go out on my own, leave the bird's nest

Leap of faith but my wings didn't work yet

Fell to the ground and the pain was the worst yet

Yeah

That's a lesson I ain't learned yet

Stripe I ain't earned yet

Gotta get knocked down twice

So the third gon' Hurt less

Got to the Church steps couldn't take the first step

I need help

I need some guidance

Somebody controlling it

Got me a Bible

I took it right home with me

Put it right next to my bed

And I said that I'd read it

The truth is I ain't even open it

If I'm being honest, I don't even pray

I need somebody to show me the way

I need somebody to tell me that

Nothing is wrong with me saying that

I need help (ooh, ooh)

When everything around me is falling to pieces

I need help (ooh, ooh)

When I cannot even remember what peace is

I need help (ooh, ooh)

Feel like I'm slipping right into the deep end

I need help (ooh, ooh)

I'm Looking for reasons

I needed help

I said it, what's step two?

Got me looking for the next move

'Cause they keep saying that I could be rescued

The chains could be let loose

Says who?

Boxed it away but the stress grew

Put a lock in a chain but it crept through

Yeah, I got regrets too

Got a lot of things I could confess to

I put it in a letter but I don't know who to send to

Pride talk, that's my ego

Thinking I'm my own God, yes, I had a dethrone

Thought I had it in control 'til I hit a steep slope

Thought I had the tree of life never let the seeds grow

All I needed was some hope

All along had it right next to my bed

Open the book with my son and I read

In the hopes that one day that He doesn't feel shame when he says

I need help (ooh, ooh)

When everything around me is falling to pieces

I need help (ooh, ooh)

When I cannot even remember what peace is

I need help (ooh, ooh)

Feel like I'm slipping right into the deep end

I need help (ooh, ooh)

I'm Looking for reasons

Jesus, please have mercy on me

Have mercy on me

Have mercy on my family

Mercy on me

I got the weight of the world on my back

Feet on the table my balance is bad

Ain't got no cape but I'm fresh off the leash

Everyone's telling me

I need help (oh, oh)

I need help (ooh, ooh)

(I need, I need)

I need help (ooh, ooh)

(Oh Lord, oh Lord)

I need help (ooh, ooh)
