Текст песни Letting Me Go - Alex Faith

Unh, young boy from the south side; got a lot of
Aspirations
Family held me down; had a lot of emancipations
Walked with me in love through all of my sinful
Fascinations
And affirmed me in my talent whenever they saw a
Flash of greatness
But I still barely finished high school
Everyone one around looking at me like what am I
Doing
Unh, and my uncle's out of prison now
I got some homies doing dirt, I'm thinking about
Getting down
Yeah, my surroundings captured me
My father taught me to love the Lord, but I don't
Trust the masterpiece
Now the tension grows thicker
Add my insecurity to mix and get a clearer picture
I'm not really supposed to win here
And the odds are piling up now
What's wrong? It's always been fair
And I feel like giving up now

I can never stop God, no
I see you without going blind
Like a child, I rule the world, it's not mine
You not letting me go; you not letting me go
I can never stop time, set this world on fire
Who can heal the blind
Like a child, I rule the world, it's not mine
You not letting me go; you not letting me go

A pastor so bold he came and told me to my face
That I was living a double life and being a disgrace
To the Lord and the church and His word and His
Spirit
I was grieving him so much at this point that I could
Feel it
I'm trying to live right in front of folk, but I'm even
Fake to me
And to make it even worse, I got a lot of folk with
Faith in me
Unh and I don't even know why; days are dark and
Grimy
Got me feeling like my hope died; who is Jesus?
And what would this man have me do now?
And I remember my father's example; I said that I
Want to make you proud
A lot of people boring me, but I'm still going out
Smoke until my eyes roll back and I got that cotton
Mouth
Living with my homie who's a Christian; he been
Good to me
But I'm up at Georgia State with a girl and she look
Good to me
I met Kenny, random; he said "Come and visit my
Church"
Came and saw the way that loved the Lord
And you know it hurt so much that I made my home
ET
We gon' move without the East Point, and hold each
Other down
At the time that's what the plan was; repenting from
My sin
I'm so convicted by the Lord's grace; never taste
God in the marathon
Until the day that I'm going to see his face

]
I can never stop God, no
I see you without going blind
Like a child, I rule the world, it's not mine
You not letting me go; you not letting me go
I can never stop time, set this world on fire
Who can heal the blind
Like a child, I rule the world, it's not mine
You not letting me go; you not letting me go

Fast-forward five years, your boy's married now
I love the Lord, and I love my wife, and he still
Shows me how
To serve him well and tell the world around me all
He's done for me
The moment when I least deserved it, he gave up his
Son for me
I burned a lot of bridges being young and dumb; I'm
Owning that
I'm trying to be a better person even if you know the
Facts
Living like a king is a struggle every day for me
That new heart that he gave me, you can never take
Away from me

I can never stop God, no
I see you without going blind
Like a child, I rule the world, it's not mine
You not letting me go; you not letting me go
I can never stop time, set this world on fire
Who can heal the blind
Like a child, I rule the world, it's not mine
You not letting me go; you not letting me go
