Josiah Williams - For A Minute lyrics

[Verse 1] I drive myself crazy thinking about You and I, growing love, and taking you out Long walks and late nights, sitting under stars Wiping that fine sand from under your arms The problem is, I don't know how to love Not the way you need it I've got an issue with my eyes, and I barely see it Blind-walking towards Heaven Tryna take you with me And I'm backtracking everytime you're not around Yes, I have a past. I just want it distant I don't want to reflect and feel like I'm reminiscing Sick of feeling sorry on this mission, feeling I can barely travel I'm weak at what I am, and that's Every Man's Battle I fall to my desires of the flesh And I avoid the problems that are prior to the rest Clearing out my mind well-before my time's through I've gotta get right with God before I get right with you So, I'mma be [Chorus] Gone for a minute, gone for a minute I'll only be gone for a minute (x4) [Verse 2] I remember your commitment when I wasn't ready When I had nothing to give and you thought it was plenty And I remember the first letter you sent me It said "we can fly to whereever you want to catch me" I know your eyes are light brown And your heart's red But I bet your mind's blue from being mind-fed All of my excuses and lies I should move to side 'cause when you look at it forreal It's abuse in disguise I'm a- Ashamed 'cause I had a revelation I'm been roughing in a bunch of temptations And it's crazy 'cause you never lost patience And you still believe we're guaranteed for greatness Your the mother of a child that we talk about Not even conceived, but it's funny 'cause we thought it out You're physically purified I'm trying to be mental Christ in my life is my credential So I'mma be [Chorus] Gone for a minute, gone for a minute I'll only be gone for a minute (x4) [Verse 3] I'm not afraid of commitment I just don't wanna fail To be on the water, and never know how to sail To promise a love that I don't know how to keep To tell you I'm strong Then finding out that I'm weak I look in your eyes, and see those grains in the sand I turn away from your gaze, and I forget I'm a man I confess I'd rather pay the price Then tell you later on And to break your heart twice I believe and trust God Much better than myself Everyday I thank God For granting me the help Grace over wealth Yeah, it's gonna hurt Deep pain--just a little I just want Christ to be sitting in the middle Perfect is unachievable, but I'mma get close It's loves' words, and I'm glad that I spoke And, I'mma be [Chorus] Gone for a minute, gone for a minute I'll only be gone for a minute (x4) [Outro] Yeah There's so much more that I can do to keep you And now I know exactly where to start I know your heart is saying "I believe you" But I would rather finalize my art There's so much more that I can do to keep you And now I know exactly where to start And I know what your heart is trying to say To me, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
