Ayy, uh, you know, it's sweet
Only thing that keep me goin' through the week, yeah

Yeah, and I don't know what l'ma eat, uh
Screaming out, "God please" with my hands up
My homie mom still dealing wih the cancer
Been prayin' for eight years and still ain't got an answer
Yeah, but I know He got it handled
'Cause late in the midnight hour, uh
Know You gon' turn it around, ayy
Your name, it come with power
They hate, I shout it louder
When I barely pray, I know I need to pray more
Be gettin' too busy, I know I need to lay low
They hatin' me for blessings I ain't even pray for
You never switched up, and I'm grateful (Uh)
[Pre-Chorus: Aaron Cole]

Ayy, trouble don't last always
Look, l'ma give You praise, Your mercy follow me all of my days
Always gon' love me despite my ways
And I know that, that I'm blessed
And I'm highly favored, why would I worry?
Ain't no need, ain't no saint, but I'm still holy
Look, You showin' me
Ain't no weapon holding me
Twenty-four, eight like Kobe
Come and let's talk like Jodeci, it's poetry, ayy
Look, I know a lot don't make it, uh
But I thank God that I did, uh
Count it all joy, we on ten
When I'm down, I know my angel's gon' send for me (Hallelujah)
