Temptation has got the best of me! I'm fallin; somebody rescue me! My hands are shakin'; I feel the blood rushing up to my brain Mercy! I've got urges I just can't contain. Now if Heaven can't see to lend a hand to me And that preacher man just keep on preachin up I know that it's a sin, but it's so easy giving in And I get so tired of reaching up So I'm reaching out I'm reaching out I'm reaching out I'm reaching out for Temptation Oh Temptation! Like a fever through my veins Closer, closer! There it goes again Help me! I want it, I need it, Gotta have it, I hear it calling my name But there's a darkness risin' and a shadow implies a flame Well call it weakness, call it pride, Say what you want I'm just too tired Tired of tryna be some man that I ain't I don't care if it ain't right I just ain't got no more fight And I'm sorry Lord but I ain't no Saint! So I'm reaching out I'm reaching out I'm reaching out I'm reaching out for Temptation
