"Mercy" lyrics

"Mercy"

My reflection shows the strain
Of the places I've been
Colors fall around me like rain
My heart once made of sand
Took a breath I feel alive
Clear the weight of my sin
Oh my lord have mercy on me
I know who I'm gon' be
Yeah yeah, lord have mercy on me, on me
I know who I'm gon' be
I finally see what's left before me

Yeah they say
I thought that you was a christian
And what seemed like every time that I fall
Just because I follow god don't mean I'm perfect at all
And just because you see a fly don't give you reason to call
It's a mad world, mad world, we'll all be gone in a minute
Truly miss the days I struggle cause they hate you when you're winning
Spending most my time adjusting to the time zones
Like what's a dream, a sacrifice, a religion, I don't know
It keep weighing on my conscience
And I got issues in my life that just a constant
When I'm at my greatest know the devil tryna break me
Angels in the studio feeling like a mosh pit
Ignoring all the gossip
I won't be controlled by the things I fear
No not this year
I'm seeing clear
Seeing clear am I

My reflection shows the strain
Of the places I've been
Colors fall around me like rain
My heart once made of sand
Took a breath I feel alive
Clear the weight of my sin
Oh my lord have mercy on me
I know who I'm gon' be
Yeah yeah, lord have mercy on me, on me
I know who I'm gon' be
I finally see what's left before me

My reflection shows the strain
Of the places I've been
Colors fall around me like rain
My heart once made of sand
Took a breath I feel alive
Clear the weight of my sin, of my sin
Lord have mercy on me (lord have mercy on me)
I know who I'm gon' be
Yeah yeah, lord have mercy on me, on me
I know who I'm gon' be
I finally see what's left before me
