Promises

[Verse 1] Holding on to these promises, but I promise you that I'm hurt inside I don't address these issues, so I guess it's no surprise Look into my eyes, you'll see, truth mixed with lies, you'll see These people are watching me, so it's really no privacy And they put me up so high that there's no way I'll land straight Staring into the sky, but attempting to paint the landscape So my mind is a little twisted, it'll take some years to fix it If there was an opportunity, well yes I surely missed it Fish for attention and come out with some compliments But I promise this, those very same compliments Will never be, strong as the providence Ubiquitous without Godemis, but they can really see we have God in us Or can they, we make promises we don't keep and then bandaid Or duct tape, that'll fix this, up quick, honestly I've never really felt love sick Sick of this, I need to take a seat and think, I've reached the brink Speak till my lungs collapse and throat is shredded Please no lozenges, I'm sick of all this nonsense But I'm standing on these promises [Hook: Becca Watson] Tired of fighting a fight that isn’t being won So many ways to look, maybe it’s easier, if I just fall I’m looking on you God, but I’m not sure that I can see it all These promises I’ll keep but I need your strength to help me To help me stand tall [Verse 2] This voice inside of me is speaking, and I can't tweak it I can't turn it down, delete it, it's surround sound and I need it I need it, it begs for more, I don't feed it, on my vocal chords And I'm pleading, with my own soul and I'm screaming Fighting, all these evil demons It's a tug of war for my soul, and I feel so broken, weary And I call to God, I'm at odds, but I know, that he hears me And I've been running, walking, jogging, all of these different trails A dragon with some missing scales, I really need to clip this tail If I rely on me and do what I wanna, I'll end up looking stupid Clueless, probably switching personas, they grab coronas Say that it'll be alright if you drink it away, ay No it goes away if I seek Him and pray I'm getting so frustrated listening to what they're saying Then I remember, that my God is past the craft of a Super Saiyan My name can stand for many things, just like a homonym But I will know Him better and that I promise them [Hook] [Outro] They thought it was over x3 My field is covered in clovers I don't need luck, cause I'm chosen, let's go These promises
