Mercy

[Chorus] Lord have mercy Pain in my heart from early It's hard to be cleanhearted in a world that's dirty I know I'm not perfect Did what I could when I could in a hood, when I spoke they heard me Had to let go of the things that hurt me Things that weren't me Lord have mercy [Verse 1] Who's in control of me? Externally, it's nobody Don't matter what social status you think you take if I think you're nobody That's where I'm from, or oversee Don't get gassed by your own belief Prideful souls get no relief Money, sex, violence, been there done that I'm not insecure about myself I don't boast on things that don't love back Had to be merciful to be purposeful My dead bredrins can't come back See the jokin' ting? I don't run that Thank god when I left home, that I come back [Chorus] Lord have mercy Had pain in my heart from early It's hard to move right when you don't feel worthy It's hard to be cleanhearted in a world that's dirty I know I'm not perfect Did what I could when I could in a hood, when I spoke they heard me Had to let go of the things that hurt me Things that weren't me Lord have mercy [Verse 2] Tired of feeling pain, hoping that nobody notice Feeling the guilt and weight of times I've broken my focus Lord have mercy, recreate in my oxytocin I know it's a process, closin' the door so the chamber would open I wanna look to the light Look to the light and focus Look to the light and focus, jah know I can't be hopeless Jah know I can't be foldin I need to find my way because there's no P's in coastin' [Outro] Lord have mercy Lord have mercy I know I'm not perfect Lord have mercy
