El Roi Lyrics

Life's gotta end, but when I die, man, I'm gon' fly

Still gon' try, if I fail every time

Runnin to the Lord, yeah I'm on His side

Tears that grow to trees when my mama cry

Songs that made a way when my parents fight

Runnin' through the storm just so I could shine

Eight billion in the world, but it's just you and I

Lord, as long as it's just you and I

In my pride before I met you, Lord, I said

I know the route I'm goin', and I know the life I'm livin'

Fam switchin', peep the fake, and everybody out here switchin'

I don't wanna hear it

No, I choose the life that I'm gon' live

I'm fed up, up to here

I shut you out for what you did

Cause all that's dead to me

Wish I'd had an option just to mute you

Cause this putrid that you're spewin's all my world has gotten used to

It ain't useful for my soul

So I blocked my heart with ice, and maybe, then

My death would be alright

That's what I thought

Back in 2019 when I was lost

I'll tell you how I got a new heart at the cross

I'll tell you how I got a new heart at the cross

El Roi, El Roi, Adonai

You met me in my lowest times

You met me in my broken times

When you brought me away from suicide

El Roi, El Roi, Adonai

You met me in my lowest times

You met me in my broken times

When you brought me away from suicide

No, I wasn't saved forever before you saved me for forever

Broken hearted, prideful soul

And worried all through life's endeavors

Tears could probably fill the lake I almost drowned in that October

Crossfaded times ain't change the way I felt when I was sober

Felt addicted to my pride, insecurities I hid

Cause I was broken by some people that I let come closely in

I used to say that love's a drug, I won't ever trust again

It's ironic, I met true love and now I trust Him til the end

When I was broken down, you built me up

When I looked to you in humility, Lord, you lift me up

I would never thought I'd be here cause I wanted suicide

I put a knife to my own skin when I was at the age of five

When I had dropped out as a senior in that motel bathroom

I contemplated suicide again, I hoped I'd die soon

For me to be here, now at the age of 22

It's only cause the Lord Jesus Christ rescues

El Roi, El Roi, Adonai

You met me in my lowest times

You met me in my broken times

When you brought me away from suicide

El Roi, El Roi, Adonai

You met me in my lowest times

You met me in my broken times

When you brought me away from suicide

El Roi, El Roi, Adonai

You met me in my lowest times

You met me in my broken times

When you brought me away from suicide
