Broken (See Drye's Story) Lyrics

Lot a pain in this life

We're all looking for answers

Like why'd You have to let her go and die from cancer

And why'd You take him before they were ready

He was steady just tryna put food on the table for his family

Why'd You take Janelle moments after birth

Why do parents gotta bury their children in dirt

Children being torn from mothers

Brothers killing brothers

Babies being murdered every minute by the hundreds

Daddys walking out on mommas leaving kids behind

Orphans in these streets need a home just tryna stay alive

People paralyzed by anxiety they can't even try

Some people so lonely they want to die

We kill we lie we covet just so we can make a mill anything for a dollar bills

popping pills just trying to numb the pain that we made makes us go insane

it's a shame what we'll do for fame

But we're the ones to blame when we gonna learn

We out here living comfy like the world ain't gonna burn

This world is filled evil kinda like its cursed

And this death and destruction just follows us at every turn

I know You're coming back but I hope it's soon

I know that You got a plan and Your every word is true

But if I'm being honest I'm tired and broken for the people really hurting

I know the answer is You just help them see it too

There were times where I'd wake up looking forward to our conversations

Now I feel like You don't hear what I'm saying

I've been abstaining from evil serving You faithful

But people all around me living shameful and evil

Are living better lives why should I be grateful

Why serve a God who lets this happen to His people

Makes me mad thinking You're up there like that

Just letting things happen while the whole world sits around just laughing

It's getting harder and harder to function

Didn't think my life would go this direction

But suicidal thoughts creeping in like an infection

I never really struggled with suicide or depression till now

I know I need help but it might be easier just throwing in a towel

Laying curled up on my bed wishing I was in the ground

Voices in my head getting loud

If You don't show up I'm don't think I'll make out

That's when your comfort came around and took over me

Showed me peace passing understanding it was profound

Voices in my head gone now not a sound

You pulled me from the deep now I know You'll never let me drown

I know there'll be a day when all evil gets defeated

When all wicked powers are destroyed at the name of Jesus

He'll return to free us and establish His kingdom

I know we're all broken but we can find peace in Him

I know You're coming back but I hope it's soon

I know that You got a plan and Your every word is true

But if I'm being honest I'm tired and broken for the people really hurting

I know the answer is You just help them see it too
