DAYLIGHT Lyrics

Yeah, okay, okay

Can I be real for a minute?

Some nights I pray for the daylight

Sunlight and shame, I can't say why

Some fights I say I'm okay, why

Sometimes I wait for the pain, I

Look back at the days on the playground

Had joy, had peace, never stayed down

Have doubts, have grief, guess I'm changed now

I got pain now

What you gonna say now?

What you gonna say now?

See everything at stake now

I can't let them break now

God, I need a break now

But God, will You let me break not letting them break now?

I'm having a breakdown

I'm feeling so fake now

Man, I'm wide awake now

How's it gonna shake out?

How's it gonna shake out

4am and I pray out

Lord, amen, and I break into tears

Broke into tears, broke to the fears

Smoke in the mirrors, hope disappears

Ay, woah, ay, woah, ay, woah

Smoke in the mirrors

Ay, woah, ay, woah, ay, woah

Hope disappears

Ay, woah, ay, woah, ay, woah

Choke back the tears

Some nights I pray for the daylight

Sunlight and shame, I can't say why

Some fights I say I'm okay, why

Sometimes I wait for the pain, I

Look back at the days on the playground

Had joy, had peace, never stayed down

Have doubts, have grief, guess I'm changed now

I got pain now

I got pain now

I can't play around

Feels like the Devil's at his peak just like it's Cape Town

Feels like Heaven's out of reach and I can't break out

Man, I sail the seven seas and then I chase doubts

Crash into my pride and drown

Thorn in my side, I'm down

Sworn in to fight the crowd

But I am lost, I once was found

What's the cost?

The sound of backwards progress in my ears

While my head's up in the clouds

So my God, I call out and say

Some days I pray for the strength and

Some days You feel far away, yeah

Some way, please show me Your face, God

Come say I'm safe in Your grace, yeah

Come wipe the tears from my eyes and

Come tell me I'll be alright, yeah

Sometimes I wonder if life has

Sun or is it just night and

Sometimes I'm desperate for light

Sometimes I'm desperate for love

Sometimes I'm desperate for life

So I'm looking up

Some nights I pray for the daylight

Sunlight and shame, I can't say why

Some fights I say I'm okay, why

Sometimes I wait for the pain, I

Look back at the days on the playground

Had joy, had peace, never stayed down

Have doubts, have grief, guess I'm changed now

I got pain now
