The Words to Say Lyrics

He was born in his mama's prison cell

Taken away to be raised by somebody else

They abused him but he couldn't call out for help

She was kicked out the house at the age of 15

With no education chasing a dream

But without stable ground couldn't stay on her feet

You told me your story I wanted to help

But I can't imagine the cards you've been dealt

Cause I'll never feel all the feelings you felt

My clichés don't just make all your pain go away

So I'm asking my God for the words to say

That you're loved and that all this will be okay

He's hopping couches so he doesn't freeze in the cold

His only option cause he can't afford a home

Eating the scraps he's no more than skin and bone

She's taking sips and hits to numb herself

Tired of searching for the joy she's never felt

Not scared of death when her life is already hell

You told me your story I wanted to help

But I can't imagine the cards you've been dealt

Cause I'll never feel all the feelings you felt

My clichés don't just make all your pain go away

So I'm asking my God for the words to say

That you're loved and that all this will be okay

No I don't got a magic formula

For fixing your life

But still I might just have something for you

Turning darkness to light

Has God suddenly abandoned you?

Was He ever even there?

Just listen as he says "I am with you

And I'm not going anywhere"

You're always striving to be in control

And live a comfortable life

But God is calling you to let it go

And trust in Him to provide

So when you feel the fire burning you

It's refining your soul

Take off the old and put on the new

That's the hope that we hold
