"911" lyrics
(feat. TD Jakes)
Hello
Hey, it's me, Kirk, I need to speak to Bishop
Sure, hold on
Hello
Hey... I got some stuff I need to talk to you about
Lately, pastor I've been...having all these crazy kind of dreams
It's hard to sleep, I can't eat...scary, you know
I know what you mean
I mean, ever since that Tuesday, seems like life's just getting real strange
I hear ya
Anthrax, terrorist attacks and... I ain't even trying to get on no plane
I feel ya
...and you know when I try to pray, there's a voice that telling that God's not real
You know that's just the enemy
Yeah, but you ain't feeling me
No, son, I know just know you feel
See, just because I preach and teach don't mean I don't get scared sometimes
Yeah, whatever, but you T.D. Jakes
Well, then I don't make mistakes
Well
Now, let me tell you what's on my mind
When your smile is gone (He cares)
Yeah, but I feel so alone (He's there and...)
Although, your heart is heavy, God said, "Every burden I will bear."
See, but you don't know my, my pain
And I'm getting so sick and tired of all this rain
I just got laid off, and to top it off the rent's due. So, tell me what I got to gain?
Well, see, trials come to make you strong
Storms won't last, last long
But how can I trust God in all this mess?
Well, see: that's the reason for the song
See: wherever you go there's one thing ya got to know
God is right there by your side
Weeping may endure for a night
And He told me to tell you everything—everything's gon' be alright
So, thank you for calling...it's always good to hear from you
Yeah, but
But I gotta go now
Wait a minute
I got another call on line 2
But I ain't through
See: I'm sick and tired of all these church folk talking about stuff ain't as bad as it seems
See: y'all don't feel my pain
I don't have pain...?
I don't see how ...you on the cover on Time magazine
See: but you're looking at now and you don't know how I struggled and what I've been through
Yeah, whatever
Now, you crossed the line
I'm just speaking my mind
O.K. so let me speak mine, too (Hmm)
I've made some mountains, I've seen some valleys, I've even had to cry sometimes
Like when I lost my mother
Your mother?
My mother
I'm sorry
No, son...that's fine ...see life is full of ups and downs but God said
"The storm won't last long."
But how'd you make it through?
Boy, I thought you knew...it was His love that kept me strong
When your smile is gone, He cares
But I feel so alone
He's there and
Although, your heart is heavy, God said, "Every burden I will bear."
Yeah, but see...y'all don't feel my pain
And I'm getting very sick and tired of all this, this rain
Just got laid off, and to top it off the rent's due. So, tell me, Bishop, what I gotta gain?
Didn't I tell you trials come to make you strong
And those old storms won't last long?
How can I trust God in the midst of all this mess?
See that's the reason for this song
Wherever you go there's something ya got to know
God still cares
Weeping may endure for a night
And he told me to tell you everything's gon' be alright
Thank you, pastor
Any time
I think I can make it now...just tell me what I need to do
Just pray this prayer with me
Father (Father) forgive me (forgive me) I'm sorry (I'm sorry)
Please help me (help me) I love you (I love you) I need you (I need you)
Hold me (hold me) Jesus (Jesus)
My heart (my heart) my soul (my soul) please take (please take) control (control)
Right now (Now) now (now) now (now) (right now)
When you ain't got no smile, He cares
And even when you feel so alone, He's there and
Although your heart is heavy, God said, "Every burden I will bear."
And even in the midst of all ya pain
And when you're sick and tired of all the rain, this rain
Remember that the rain won't last always...and in Christ Jesus, you got so much to gain
You see your trials come to make you strong
And the storms won't last too long
Remember, my brother, my sister...it's only temporary
See that's the reason for this song
Wherever you go
There's something you've got to know
God is still there
Weeping may endure for a night
And told me to tell you
Everything's gon' be alright
Hey, it's me, Kirk, I need to speak to Bishop
