Dear Lord
I'm bored
I'm torn
But I'm yours
I got life
I got pride
I gotta deal with this anxiety inside
I got bills so high they can touch the sky
But I take this ride cause its ride or die
And I fight
And its L. O. V. E. all in me
Its how I live my life its the way I breathe
And I smile
Its been awhile
We had to fight the power
We had to fight with faith
We got to smell the flowers while we won the race
And we shine
Cause we rise
You can build me up just to break me down
You can take my heart, you can take my crown
But ill stay
You can leave me out in the winter breeze
You can light me up with gasoline
And ill pray
I'll pray
Sometimes I'm right
Sometimes I'm blind
When it works, thats nice
When it hurts, thats life
But freedom comes
And freedom rang
I'm free at last
I'm free today
Aye
Now I tell no lies, thats the way it is
Thats what I teach my child, to be all he is
And he'll shine, cause he's mine
You gotta fight the power
You gotta fight with faith
You gotta fight that curse till it finally breaks
And you'll rise
Then we rise
You can build me up just to break me down
You can take my heart, you can take my crown
But ill stay
You can leave me out in the winter breeze
You can light me up with gasoline
And ill pray
I'll pray
You can build me up just to break me down
You can take my heart, you can take my crown
But ill stay
You can leave me out in the winter breeze
You can light me up with gasoline
And ill pray
I'll pray
Oh we feel alive today
I think we gone rise today
Cause if you're weeping at night
Theres joy in the morning
Lets go
Theres joy in the morning
If you're weeping at night
Theres joy in the morning
Theres joy in the morning
