More Like You

In this cruel world we live in it’s filled up with pain and sorrow
Feeling like you swimming in problems quick to turn to the bottle
And it feels worse if you broke and you ain’t making no dolla
But if you just repent and turn around it’ll get better that’s a promise

I remember days when I worked at mcdonald’s
That minimum wage wasn’t poppin I had to make a profit
Put myself in a situation that brought me to the bottom
And I was a scholar but this problem made me drop out of college

Under so much pressure a youngin was stressing
And I couldn’t see things getting better I hoped for a blessing
And I tried to get myself together but my life was messy
That’s when I was messed up someone help me my heart is to heavy

That’s when God showed me different
He changed my decisions
Showed me a better way of living
Started off wit repentance from all the sins I was committing
Ended off better feelings thankful that blessings came with it

Oh yes I was jacked up but I’m glad that the lord came to get me
He knew I was fed up tired of the life that I was living
Now I keep my head up and I thank him for the grace he’s given
Cause he made me better glory be to the holy spirit

(Pay attention)

I tried to look but I couldn’t find
Nobody in my life that’s as great as you

When I was in my sin Jesus I was blind and I was wasting time but you seen me through

Oh so glad that you saved my life
Lord never leave my side cause you know I need you

Cause lord you know that I wanna be right
And pleasing in your sight oh make me more like you

Everyday I wake up I’m counting my blessings
Building my most holy faith
I trust it will give me direction
And I know I make mistakes
And yet I learned a lesson
Don’t try to go your way
You’ll miss out on your blessing
Don’t feed into the hate just get that out the question
My God can recreate you if you just accept him

Why would I give up or give in on the one that truly kept me
Cause I know my God, and I know that the lord ain’t never left me
And no I ain’t worried cause I am chosen
All I got to do is think about him and stay focused
Think about my savior and thinkin bout where I’m goin
Cause I’m on the winning team I don’t got no time for losing
Cause I was in pain
Gave my pain to God
Now I see better days
Can’t complain
Gotta be black or white there ain’t no 50 shades
I’m tryna live holy aint no room to even conversate
Can’t argue with those who don’t know me, and who ain’t changed they ways
I can’t argue with those who don’t know him
And who ain’t felt his grace
(Can’t argue with those who don’t know him and who ain’t felt his grace)

I tried to look but I couldn’t find
Nobody in my life that’s as great as you

When I was in my sin Jesus I was blind and I was wasting time but you seen me through

Oh so glad that you saved my life
Lord never leave my side cause you know I need you

Cause lord you know that I wanna be riiiight
And pleasing in your sight oh make me more like you
