Verse I:
They say life full of trouble, life full of pain
Even when it ain't no clouds, you can have a sky full of rain
I done had a whole glass full - don't taste like lemonade
I don't care what she say - sometimes life ain't great
Tell me how to preach err weak when you can’'t let ‘em see you weep
You ain't even got no peace - God's Word hard to believe
‘Cause you be trynna find your King - but He be like way out of reach
Like His phone don't ring - leavin' messages at the beep
Like - how my girls gone eat when all I got is words and a beat?
Trynna let the world hear me, but how these ends gone meet?
Preacher, oh preacher, please give me good news
My heart is bleeding all over these pews
How I'm 'posed to really live right? How i'm 'posed to pay the bills right now?
How I'm 'posed to make a mil right now? I ain't even got a meal right now
Five hunnit reasons why I can't sleep at night
For once in my life I just wanna be alright
Chorus:
Wait on Jesus, Wait on Him
Wait on Jesus, Wait on Him
Verse II:
There I go yet again, trynna learn how to be a man
Better father, husband - so many things I don’t understand
‘Cause I done seen more divorces than chariots and white horses
Picket fence - make a wish - give a kiss - you could never turn a frog to a prince
Sickness and health ‘til we parted by death
But when things got hard, packed yo bags and you left
These vows don't mean nothin’? These years gotta mean somethin’
Yo son's gonna need lovin’ / Somebody gotta tell the kid somethin’
You ain't even comin’ back no mo’ / He don't wanna be black no mo’
He don't really feel safe in a world with the police at yo do'
Still lookin out that window - Mommy, where'd Daddy go?"
Didn't take long for him to realize that you ain't gone show
Now he got a baby of his own - look at how much she's grown
Maybe she'll be the best thing the world's ever known
Perfect parents - no - but let this truth be told
One thing she'll never know is what it feel like to see me gone
