To be so young, my life's been rough
God I need your love, I need to feel your touch
I just know too many things
My mind shouldn't know
And I've seen too many things
My eyes shouldn't've seen
And I've been tossed too many places, I was never supposed to be
So forgive me if I ask why me
It's like I feel the world, caving down
But I can still feel your presence, round about
I hear a still small voice, whispering near
Saying I'll never leave you, I'm always here
It's like I feel the world, caving down
But I can still feel your presence, round about
I hear a still small voice, whispering near
Saying I'll never leave you, I'm always here
Love really means hate, trust really means lies
The world forces me to exist with these tainted eyes
And God I'm just trying to survive I'm trying to breathe your air
You told me you would never give me more than I could bear
But the pain don't seem to go nowhere
And I'm still trying to believe that you're here
It's like I feel the world, caving down
But I can still feel your presence, round about
I hear a still small voice, whispering near
Saying I'll never leave you, I'm always here
It's like I feel the world, caving down
But I can still feel your presence, round about
I hear a still small voice, whispering near
Saying I'll never leave you, I'm always here
I had to live through some dark days
Full of bad weather had to pick my head up
Put my hands together say a prayer to the Lord
Cause I was going through misery
The only reason why I'm still here is cause you're keeping me
I'm sorry, I done did some things that's jacked up
But you ain't never failed, never failed, you always picked me up
And the best days of my life is coming up
All these blows from my past really only made me tough
They judged me, you loved me, they cursed me, you blessed me
They said I could never be, you said it's my destiny
This one thing I know this, the truth is I own this
Your love for me it could never go unnoticed
The thought try to control me, devil gunnin' for me
Distractions all around, you said keep your eyes up on me
I got this one thing and the world can't take it from me
That you said I am with you, I'll never leave you lonely
I hear a still small voice whispering near
I hear a still small voice whispering near
I hear a still small voice whispering near
Saying, I'll never leave you, I'm always here
