about

a song of encouragement when it seems like the world is beating you down

lyrics

What if I wasn’t meant to succeed
What if my heart was meant to bleed
Maybe I was meant to be a lapdog, a servant if that’s the case
Is all this dreaming really worth it?
Seems like others are passing me in the blink of an eye
They say the first shall be last but I’m falling further behind
There’s no one else in sight, maybe cuz there’s no light
Am I losing the battle my head is bloody from the fight
I look to the sky and see dark clouds pass over
My knees start to buckle from the weight that’s on my shoulders
Walkin hot coals, while I’m toting boulders
I’m ready for this to all be over
And just as I’m ready to give in to death, I receive a fresh breath
A renewed mind and a stronger back bone I lift my head to look around
And see I’m no longer along cus…

God send his angels to surround me and protect me (2x’s)

They say the sun comes out tomorrow seems tomorrow never comes
Remember you’re not the only one and you shall overcome
Adversity’s a great teacher if you heed its instruction
Ignore it and pay dearly and suffer repercussions
The easy button nah never heard of that
Friends in high places well you can say I’ve got the ultimate
And friends in low they can put you back on track
don’t look down on em or burn bridges, keep it all intact.
You can’t let pain postpone your plan
patience plus equals a prize in the palm of your hand
you got to understand there’s strength in experience
that’s why our elders had so much confidence
so now I’m happy thru all the strife, can’t get rid of my smile
under the trappings of life my head is bloody but unbowed
I know no other way, my spirit is so joyous
I’m filled with God’s love you can hear it in the chorus

God send his angels to surround me and protect me (2x’s)

Everyone falls from time to time but that don’t mean you fall behind
Just keep on pressing on (2x’s)

God send his angels to surround me and protect me (2x’s)
