[Intro: Derek Minor] I ain't got no metaphors, no similes To explain to y'all what I've been through Just real talk, just real me You can see the scars I've lived through I heard it through the grape vine They say I'm done like cooked food But that body's still in the oven No clue what the chef is up to, yeah
[Verse 1: Derek Minor] All I know is they said that my pops O. D. 'd He ain't had no insurance So that burden of buryin' fallen on me God I need some endurance I feel like You up in the sky and You torturin' me Even though that that's foolish You see all the pain that I feel like You pour it on me I just hope I don't lose it Cause I'm tired of buryin' my relatives Tired of feelin' I'm failin' at everything Cause sometimes it feel like You take away everything It feel like You've gotta be mad at me Are You mad at me? Do You hate me? Are these tribulations just to break me? Man, this can't be the reason You made me I'm goin' crazy, won't You save me?
[Hook: J. Paul] I'm feelin' like all I got is just ashes You've been burnin' my whole palace to the ground To the ground And I don't know what You're doin' But I'll be right here until You save me Save me, hey won't You save me? I need You now, I need You now To just save me, save me Hey won't You save me? You can take it all, You can take it all But just save me
[Spoken: Derek Minor] It's like everything around me is crumbling I feel like I'm losing my mind Where are You God? Where are You?
[Bridge: Derek Minor] The devil is whisperin' up in my head End it all, end it all, yeah end it all He's sayin' the Lord He don't want me to win Not at all, not at all, not at all
[Verse 2: Derek Minor] See in one whole year Lost my sister, lost my aunt, lost my dad Wife got in a wreck, fractured her spine Feel like evil is circlin' all that I have Some people mishandle my business It won't happen again That money entrusted was took from me But most importantly lost one of my friends I could care less about all of this music These numbers, opinions, and all of this fame Just wanna be who God called me to be And take care of [?] all in the same I bend on my knees with these tears in my eyes And my hands to the sky, I'm prayin' for change Put me in fire, take all that I have To the end of my days I'm not cursin' Your name You're all that I have and You gave up Your Son That is enough It's all in Your hands and this weight is too much I have faith in Your love So as long as I'm alive, long as I'm alive I'll trust You forever, forever My faith will never die, faith will never die For worse or for better I know You can save me
[Hook]
[Outro: J. Paul] Save me, save me Hey won't You save me? Save me Save me, save me Hey won't You save me? Save me
