JWill and Genesis Renji I cried out in hopes you would hear me Lord It'll always get better [Genesis Renji - Verse 1:] There's a feeling I've been feeling Like I ain't supposed to be living This feeling's filling my soul Like these bullets filling these children It's click, clack and boom Like church choirs for tombs My city playin' them tunes Like Fiddler on the Roof And I ain't been to church in some months Go figure I figure in order to go farther I need more figures Not the figures of speech But the figures of green I know the root of all evil I've been admiring the tree From the trunk to the branches And everlasting I know that there's a plan I can't comprehend Or imagine But I'm just feeling like: "Lord, you should try me I just might surprise thee" Wait, that's surprising 'cause I know these dreams ain't pointless, man I know this life ain't hopeless, man Just gotta pray and stay focused, man I done got it tatted underhand Valley before the promised land [Genesis Renji & Josiah Williams - Chorus:] Even when my days ain't perfect, I try to look up Even when I'm busy hurting, I try to look up Even when I feel deserted, I try to look up Because I know I deserve it, I try to look up Even when my days ain't perfect, I try to look up Even when I'm busy hurting, I try to look up Even when I feel deserted, I try to look up Because I know He deserves it, I try to look up [Josiah Williams - Verse Two:] There's a feeling like I've been feeling Like I've been letting Him down I avoid the bible; I find a problem and come around Lord, help me cause I need You I've been acting evil But gimme a second chance and I'll star in a better sequel I know I was made in Your image, original But I've been acting selfish, powerless and pitiful Tell me where I went wrong Actually I know, but, yo It's hard because I tried to be the star and the show I had everybody watching Everybody follow They don't know, I fell low, after hittin' a pothole I landed face first in a mess that I made And I was, somehow encouraged to embrace all the pain They can call you a friend, and you may never know They're the reason for the pain that you undergo But because I'm ya friend, I gotta let you know That it hurts to hold it on, better let 'em go I've got a new plan, to become a new man Just tryin' Wanna have a suit and tie when the Lord's ready to fly-in And I won't have to tell Him all about my work He was watching up in Heaven of my time on Earth And I know that I'm never needing to find my worth You're the only thing I see and keep my eyes on first The Lord says, let it go, cause I what I say does Lemme see you start living that Agape love [Genesis Renji & Josiah Williams - Chorus:] Even when my days ain't perfect, I try to look up Even when I'm busy hurting, I try to look up Even when I feel deserted, I try to look up Because I know I deserve it, I try to look up Even when my days ain't perfect, I try to look up Even when I'm busy hurting, I try to look up Even when I feel deserted, I try to look up Because I know He deserves it, I try to look up
