[Intro]
Every night, before I close my eyes
I say a little prayer that you'll have mercy on me
Please, dear God, to live inside the divine
Not like I want to die
Teach me to forgive myself, outlive this hell

[Verse 1]
Is it really love if it hurts?
Is it really pain if it’s inside?
On the outside, I'm strong
Hold my hand, please sympathize
Hard enough tryna forgive
Hard enough tryna live
Please don't criticize, yeah
Please, please sympathize, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody to teach me to love
Somebody to help me rise above
I need to survive, I’m looking for

[Chorus]
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I'm looking for, I'm looking for love
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I'm looking for, I'm looking for mercy

[Post Chorus]
Every night, before I close my eyes
I say a little prayer that you'll have mercy on me
Please, dear God, to live inside the divine
Not like I want to die
Teach me to forgive myself, outlive this hell

[Verse 2]
Is it really faith if I'm weak?
Can you tell the truth when you live lies?
I'm just looking for the signs
Hold my hand, please sympathize
Hard enough tryna forgive
Hard enough tryna live
Flawed, flawed by design, yeah
Please, please sympathize

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody to teach me to love
Somebody to help me rise above
I need to survive, I’m looking for
(Looking for, looking for, looking for, looking for mercy)

[Chorus]
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I’m looking for, I'm looking for love
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I’m looking for, I'm looking for mercy

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody to teach me to love
Somebody to help me rise above
I need to survive, I'm looking for

[Chorus]
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I'm looking for, I’m looking for love
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I'm looking for, I'm looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I'm looking for, I'm looking for love
(Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy)
(Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy)
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy
I'm looking for, I'm looking for mercy
(Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy)
(Looking for, looking for, looking for mercy)
