Yeah that’s right
Aye C’mon

Yuh

[Verse 1: Sevin]
He bells with the jealousy of a failure inhaling the air
Of the hell that envelopes him
No relatives tellin’ him it’s gon be okay
He swears the stress is gon make he OJ
My suggestion is don’t test that boy cuz he don’t play
He’s worn down from the storm
And it’s pouring down in his hometown
So he sits all alone with a torn frown
Yeah
He ain’t eaten in days
He don’t speak he just prays
He don’t sleep he just lays there
With a blank stare
He’s been abused since a boy
That’s why he’s so paranoid
And his youth’s been destroyed
And his soul has a void
Shots of liquor popping fizzles
And he’s tootin’ the blow
Tried speakin’ to the preacher
But he’s rebuking him so
He figures God is the same
If this preacher talks in his name
Turned away from salvation
Basically lost and ashamed
He’s got nowhere to turn
No one to comfort his heart
The church denied him the light
So he succumbs to the dark

Yuh

[Chorus: Sevin]
If you would take some time
Shine your light
Maybe I could get it right

How will I know that He loves me if you don’t?
That He chases and embraces a sinner if you won’t?

If you would love me just as I am
Maybe I would understand

You say that you love me enough to bear my pain?
You wear His name rellie why don’t you care the same?

[Verse 2: Sevin]
She soon to strip for them pills
Breaking her heel for the scrill
Turned out by the thrill
So burned out she can’t feel
He manipulated her mind now she can’t cut him away
She’s degrading her body
Obviously stuck in her ways
Now she’s struck with the AIDS
Slow sentence to death
He throws her back to the blade
No commitment is left
So she skips to the meth
The hobby taking her pain
But it’s bakin’ her brain
So she ain’t thinking the same
She never got guidance from mother
Talked to a pastor but he said she had to change
Before the father could love her
Now she’s feeling so stranded and left abandoned again
Her whole life she’s been misused
For the advancements of men
She’s reaching for heaven
But she’s left in this hell
Finds out she is pregnant babies infected as well
Rejected him
Well no one knows how bad it feels
So she swallows a whole bottle of pills

C’mon

[Chorus: Sevin]
If you would take some time
Shine your light
Maybe I could get it right

How will I know that He loves me if you don’t
That He chases and embraces a sinner if you won’t

If you would love me just as I am
Maybe I would understand

You say that you love me enough to bear my pain
You wear His name rellie why don’t you care the same

[Verse 3: Illuminate]
I tried to quit but that temptation keeps calling my name
But I keep on turning to sin cuz it’s numbing my pain
And I love the Lord with all my heart and I trust in his name
But if you only knew my soul is so crushed from this pain
But I can’t tell nobody
They can’t see me the same
The pressure of this ministry is gon’ drive me insane
Yeah they invite me out and pay me for my time
But do they even care about the man behind this grind?
Or do they want to use and abuse my gifting
Cuz I’ve been crying out but Lord is anybody listening?
At this point I don’t care about positions
I’m so broken and insecure Lord I need fixing
I need to be discipled and still need to be fathered
But they’re too busy and they treat me like they can’t be bothered
Yeah and this is coming from one of our own
We gotta stop shooting our wounded and welcome them home
Church

[Chorus: Sevin]
If you would take some time
Shine your light
Maybe I could get it right

How will I know that He loves me if you don’t?
That He chases and embraces a sinner if you won’t?

If you would love me just as I am
Maybe I would understand

You say that you love me enough to bear my pain
You wear His name why don’t you care the same

[Outro: Sevin]
And if you would love me just as I am
Maybe I would understand
