I'm a security critic, I've been denied and [Am] abandoned
Pushed away, given away, some days I couldn't [G] imagine
Getting harder, getting colder, what's left for me [A] to see?
Tired of running, tired [F] of hurting, even got tired [C] of me
Tired of crying, tired of trying to forget my [Am] mistakes
Tired of being in the storm, how much more can [G] I take?
Many nights in my life, tell me why I should [D] more
Tears in my eyes, who would [F] allow?
And after all that, [C]
I'm still trying to figure out
I'm slow, but it's time [Am] I go out
I think I know what's up, girl, cause [G] somehow
[C] You confessed what I wanted to do
Through all those [Bb] good love [Fm] things, but can't [C] be now
So many didn't make [Am] it through
So I just hopped in a two-hole, made it [G] through
I'm tired of being blamed, [F] I'm the pain, I'm the wrong person, [Fm] wrong [Bb] me
Had no [C] hope, had no future, even too hard [A] to dream
No one told me, boy, you can do whatever you wanna [G] be
Then you say me, and you gave me reason to breathe [Am] again
Now I'm a failure, but [D] I'm going until I make it to [C] the end
It ain't even when you're lying to me when you're never [Am] here
And you're fighting through the lies, trying to find what's [G] for real
[Em] Everyone wants [G] the prize, but they can't stand [Am] the pain
The strength I [C] needed, it came, [F] the night I cried out [C] your name
To my people in the struggle, all my soldiers and [Am] believers
To my survivors of Rita, Katrina, and even [G] FEMA
Help me out
All the people working [C] together [F] for our good
New Orleans, [A] who would allow?
I'm slow, but it's time [Am] I go out
I think I know what's up, girl, cause [G] somehow
By your grace
[C] You've done the best for all of us, you know
I'm through, cause [Fm] you love me, forgive [C] me now So many
So many didn't make [Am] it through
That's why Jesus
Tried to stop it, I'm so over [G] you Yes, sir
[C] No candor, no flame, I'm [F] the pain, I'm through, cause you love [Bb] me
You're looking [C] good
Now I know you guys know change ain't [Am] easy, but I just wanna [B] remind you right [E] here
Yes, I've [Em] seen some hard times, [B] and some bad [Em] choices that I've made, they don't matter [Gm] for me My mistake
[C] But now it's [E] time to move on, move [D] on
Time to go, y [C]'all
And let my [F] muscles down, [E] I'm desperate, [A] just in case
And even though I [G] don't always [B] know
For [Em] you, I probably might, for the last [D] so long
So I come
[F] And when I see the sunlight Hallelujah
[Ab] It will tell me [Eb] to make it [G] strong
[D] So I'm [C] giving it
[D]
[C] Oh, oh, oh, oh Clap, clap
[G] [D]
[F] Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, [Fm] oh, oh
I want [C] everybody to just realize
That God is doing [D] a work in your [C] life right now
[D] I know it may not feel comfortable to [D] you, but just remember
[G] You're [C] gonna come forth as pure gold
So
[Bb]
Sing it with us
