[Intro]
Yeah
Sometimes I feel like
(Feeling like I lost my mind)
I'm as close as I've ever been to You
And then the next moment
(You are not a waste of time)
It's like I'm running from You
And I'm sorry
This is not how it's supposed to be
But sometimes that's how it happens
Forgive me
Yeah

[Verse 1]
I feel lost in my mind
Just another pain in my head
I feel so broken inside
With memories I'm tryna forget
I don't feel like I used to
Matter 'a fact not even close
I don't feel right
Yet I choose to
To go to a place I don't know
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe I'm not
But I feel like I'm outta control
And God, I need you
Right now
I never should've let you go
Now I'm just so out of control

[Chorus]
And now I don't know who I am
This was never my plan
This ain't how it's supposed to be
I took it out of Your hands
I took a chance
But how am I supposed to see
When I'm blinded
And when I'm broken
Lookin' for a way to escape
I can't find it
But then I'm reminded of Your grace
(Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Of Your grace
(Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2]
I thought I was fine
I guess not
If I was I wouldn't feel this way
If I was okay
And I was so perfect
Then why do I feel so ashamed
I'm no liar in my head
Screaming I don't need any help
I say I'm tryin', yet in the end
I'm only tellin' lies to myself
I say I want answers
Complaining
Yeah, I'm just looking for truth
Unless I got problems
Which I got 'em
I seem I only blame 'em on You, whoa
It's like I don't know what to do, whoa, yeah

[Chorus]
And now I don't know who I am
This was never my plan
This ain't how it's supposed to be
I took it out of Your hands
I took a chance
But how am I supposed to see
When I'm blinded
And when I'm broken
Lookin' for a way to escape
I can't find it
But then I'm reminded of Your grace
(Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah)
Of Your grace
(Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 3]
Lord, forgive me
I feel so cold
Livin' in the wrong
Yeah, here I go
I don't want to cry
I don't want to show all the emotion
I got froze
I don't know how say this easy
Look in the mirror but I don't see me
I don't see the things I used to know
Swore to myself
Never let You go
Here I go
Pain again
Here I go
Playin' pretend
Actin' like I'm fine
When in my mind I'm just breakin'
Lookin' for a reason
Wonder why I'm breathin'
Wonder why my momma had to die
Lord Jesus
I don't understand this
I ain't never planned it
My plan did never evolve
We feelin' trashed in
I feel like I keep falling down
Lord, please help me up
I've had enough

[Chorus]
And now I don't know who I am
This was never my plan
This ain't how it's supposed to be
I took it out of Your hands
I took a chance
But how am I supposed to see
When I'm blinded
And when I'm broken
Lookin' for a way to escape
I can't find it
But then I'm reminded of Your grace
(Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah)
Of Your grace
(Whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah)

NF

NF (stylized as ИF), real name Nathan Feuerstein (pronounced “fire-STINE”), is a rapper and songwriter from the small town of Gladwin, Michigan. As a child, Nate’s parents went through a divorce, where he would then live with his mother. Later on, Nate’s life started getting more difficult whenever his mother’s boyfriend started physically abusing him. However, the most traumatic event in Nate’s life was finding his mother dead from a drug overdose.

During the hard times of his life, Nate would fall back on music to escape from the world and express himself freely by writing music and then recording it on his karaoke machine with instrumentals playing in the background. In 2008, Nate participated in the Fine Arts Festival rap competition.

In 2010, he released his first album, Moments, independently. The album got him a record deal with Xist Music in 2012, with a new stage name, NF. Nate released two songs with Xist, and an EP was announced, but never released because he decided to leave the label (however, most of these songs can be found online). NF starting working with fellow Michigan producer, Tommee Profitt, searching for a new label.
