Will Kellum - Highs and Lows Lyrics

Tell me do you know my life?
Tell me do you know my light?
Tell me if you knew my wrongs?
Would you still think that I'm alright?
Everything that I already did
It still come up in my mind
I'm tryna always find my peace
But the peace I can never just find
Tossing and turning up all in my bed these thoughts in my head won't leave me alone
I know that you judge me you think I'm corrupt but I just need rest to get to His throne
I'm going through motions all in the open that's why all that stress be hitting so strong
God I just need in all this sorrow I feel like a mess I been running too long
Maybe that's why I had to right this song
I been feeling broke like way too long
Everybody look for me to give a show
But never look to see what's in my soul
All of the pain that I never let go
Weighing me down cause the things I hold
Maybe it's time for me to let it go
And stop running away from the pain in my soul
I feel like running away
I feel like taking a break
This pain press hard on my faith
But a press is all that it takes
I pray I don't die in a grave
Cause ain't much more I can take
Can you just send your grace
I need it to get through the day

Ups, downs
Highs, and lows
4am, I call yo phone
Im up late thinking bout you
Thinking bout you

Would you love me if I never did right?
If I never showed love all the time
If I told you that I been going through it
And I can't give you what you tryna find
If I told that I just been walking, but my path these days been blind
If I told that I'm always working, cause it made me feel better inside
I never knew life like this
That's why it's hard to fight like this
Mama and pops always had it
I never had to work my wrist
They taught how to pray up to Jesus
They told it a work like this
And even on the days you don't see it
It's still gone work like this
I ain't never looking back, but things that I never got say
Like why everybody look to me? why you treat like I'm just not the same
Why my calling gotta be so rough, these days it's been so hard to pray
Why everybody gotta come to me, but never there when I need they faith
Why I gotta keep struggling, I'm living check to check day by day
But I'm still out here wondering, why I never failed cause you stay the same
Cause you keep looking out for, even when I never see my people face
I still get to see you work for me, but it's hard when you gotta wait for change
