Intro Yeah!

Verse 1a [Rap]
Sick, sick, sick of my sickening-self,
Choking on pride spilling out of my-mouth.
This pride is eating me alive.

Verse 1b [Rap]
Thinking I'm really something,
But my goodness amounts to nothing.
People think I'm in the clear,
But in my heart I cry out in fear.

Chorus1 [sung/Rap]
God, I need Your help,
Save me from myself.
I've been deceived
[I'm sick & tired of my frothy existence.]
God, I've gone too far,
Is there hope for me?
Don't leave me here.
[Stuck in the mess of my own distress]

Verse 2a [Rap]
I'm tired of the lies I have come to believe.
I hate the way they've been able to control me.

Verse 2b [Rap]
Make me little in my own eyes.
Rip away every disguise.
Set me free from my mastermind,
And forgive me for being so blind!

Chorus 2 [sung/Rap]
God, I need your help,
I'm at the end of myself.
I've been deceived.
[I'm sick & tired of my haughty existence.]
God, take me far away.
To walk with You.
Don't F#m)leave me here.
[Stuck in the mess of my own distress.]

Break: ------

Verse 3 [Rap]
Got my face turned to the sky,
Beginning to realize
I can't fight this thing on my own.
Even if I tried, I can't make it alone.

Bridge
I've gotta get it through my head,
It's exactly like You said.
There's no way to save myself,
Or put my faith in something else.

Chorus 3 [sung/Rap]
Oh, God, strip off everything
That lays between You & me.
[Take it all, knock down my walls!]
God, I've been bound so long
With chains so strong,
Free me, please!
[Give me a break, do whatever it takes!]

God! -----
Can't do it myself.
[I know I need You, I know I need You.]
God!... -----
I need Your help!
[I need You!]
