[Intro: Solomon Burke]
I get a little weak sometimes
Teach me the way, night and day,day,day,day
[Verse 1: Lecrae]
Oh, I'm under pressure, man, I'm under pressure
Been tryna walk it out I keep ended up a stretcha’
Problems in life‘ll stretch ya’, ain't got it all together
They say the change comin’, but it’s feelin’ like forever
Oh, I’m on mission, they probably think I'm missin’
Some screws, but it’s these three nails that keep me drivin’
If God ain’t with me, I know that I'm gon’ fail
And ain’t a wish in the well that can wish ya’ boy well
Cells eaten by cancer got me lookin’ for answers
Doctors say my daughter
Won't grow up to be a dancer
Just walked out that funeral, I’m right back in
My cubicle
Lord, I'm ready for heaven; I'm just waitin’ on the cue to go
Feel like givin’ up and just blamin’ it on my daddy
He never meant to have me, and problems keep comin’ at me
I wanna walk with Jesus, but my legs too heavy
I'm hopin’ prayer works ‘cause the walls can't hear me
Come on!
[Hook: Novel]
So I drop to my knees and I scream with my might
I’m know that these walls can’t hear me
I say, “Lord, please won’t you hear my cry?”
I know that these walls can’t hear me
Maybe if I plead and I sing out loud
I know that these walls can’t hear me
Jesus come walk, come walk with me now
‘Cause I know that these walls can’t hear me
Can't hear me
[Verse 2: Lecrae]
Oh, D Wade died first, now my Uncle Skip gone
Then I lost my grandpa, and that's when it hit home
That people keep leavin’ me, this world keep deceiving me
They sellin’ me false hope, and I keep believing it
Come on!
I promise I think I'm going insane
Come on!
And gravity pullin’ me down the drain
Come on!
My boys in Afghanistan goin’ crazy
Staring at them pictures of they babies
Bullets flyin’ everywhere, prayin’ they gon’ make it home Lord
Give ‘em Hope
Without it, what else they bankin’ on?
Everything is fallin’ all around me, put yo’ arms around me
Sinkin’ in my sorrows got me drowning
Tempted to empty bottles and throw ‘em off in wind
Devils lurkin’ ‘round the corner, just waitin’ for me to sin
I pray that you sustain me and keep me from givin’ in
Ain't gotta get me out;
Just get me through to the end!!!
Lord Jesus, come on!
[Hook]
So I drop to my knees and I scream with my might
I’m know that these walls can’t hear me
I say, “Lord, please won’t you hear my cry?”
I know that these walls can’t hear me
Maybe if I plead and I sing out loud
I know that these walls can’t hear me
Jesus come walk, come walk with me now
‘Cause I know that these walls can’t hear me
Hear me
[Outro: Novel]
See I need some healing
‘Cause I’m losing feeling
Lord won’t you please hear my cry, yeah
Let your love rain from the sky
