paroles de chanson Temptation (Live From Soundwaves) - Dermot Kennedy

This just the way I feel
Mind's been racing so long, yeah
It's just no way to deal
With these problems alone

And I really can't take it no more
I've been fighting temptations, my Lord
I'm young and I'm restless
And I really can't help it
And I never felt selfish before
I've been living so reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can You help me?
I said, "Lord, can You help me?"

Now everybody got problems, yeah
But wouldn't know what way to solve 'em
I really came up from the bottom
Struggling, my momma on her last dollar
Hustling and I've been putting in these hours
Government been tryna take away what's ours

Really all about the money and the power
I just wanna see my people empowered
Tell me how we gon' shape this vision
Complaining all day but in the same condition
Wanna make change, it's gon' take commitment

People enslaved by their religion
Can't emancipate them from the mental prisons
Seen through optics transform to wisdom
Watch me use my prophets, get 'em all to listen
I've been on a mission, ah

I really can't take it no more
I've been fighting temptations, my Lord
I'm making 'em restless
And I really can't help it
And I never felt selfish before
I've been living so reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can you help me?
I said, "Lord, can you help me?"

Now everybody got vices, yeah
But wouldn't know what good advice is
Until they leave 'em lifeless
Another mama crying, it's another crisis
Lord knows we just tryna live righteous
Are you willing just to make the sacrifices?

No, we can't continue living like this
And I'll never sell my soul 'cause that's priceless
Tell me how we gon' make a living
Hustle on the block, who gon' save the children?
Man, it's all a plot and I'm just revealing

The media just tryna make a villain
I just take the pain and paint a picture
Voices in my head, I hear the whispers
When I feel this way, inhale the swisher
Or I sip the liquor

I really can't take it no more
I've been fighting temptations, my Lord
I'm making 'em restless
And I really can't help it
And I never felt selfish before
I've been living so reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can you help me?
I said, "Lord, can you help me?"

This just the way I feel
Mind's been racing so long, yeah
It's just no way to deal
With these problems alone

And I really can't take it no more
I've been fighting temptations, my Lord
I'm young and I'm restless
And I really can't help it
And I never felt selfish before
I've been living so reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can you help me?
I said, "Lord, can you help me?"
