Tell the Truth Lyrics

Yea, they tell me raise a Hallelujah

But it's hard to raise my hands

It's hard to lift my heart

When I see all of the demands

When my heart is still in strands

When I've lost all my plans

The only voice I hear in my head is I can't

But I hear You calling out to me saying You can

But God I am only a man

A broken one at that

And life hits harder than a baseball bat

And I don't even have the vocabulary

To adequately portray the feeling

In the deepest parts of my guts

To say that I've been in a rut

Lately is an understatement

I feel like Jonah can you just find my replacement

Send someone else because I've been depressed

And in my basement for days

Lacking self-confidence

Lacking vision

Lacking motivation

My mom used to say he who hesitates waits

And God, I've been waitin'

But not on You

But on some sort of inspiration

My dreams don't need re-evaluation

My soul needs resuscitation

Or better yet

Resurrection

Because how many times have I tried

To put my own dreams on a life support machine

Pump them up with a little oxygen

When the reality is

You ask me simply just to let my dreams die

Whoever is gonna gain life

Must lose it on their own terms

Dang

Well what happens to dreams

And what happens to visions

And what happens to carving a path

With incision type precision

I hear You whisper die to self

But Jesus to a futuristic visionary

That sounds like hell

And yet there's no hell You didn't travel to

No sin You can't unravel too

Piecing together the broken pieces of the puzzle

So God, remove my muzzle

And I'll simply just do the next right thing

And that is

Tell The Truth
