[Verse 1]

It's 2AM

I'm down on my knees
Praying for the lord
To come rescue me

Put me at ease
With my insecurity


These scriptures
Don't work
I feel they killing me


I wish I was like Drake
And not really Lecrae


Because once I rap
My raps always stay


They never travel the world
And rap about some girl

They only reach the Christians
The rest of folks be dissing


They like: "man I don't need it
I know enough about Jesus"


And though I'm a Christian
I'd feel
Like it's a messed up condition


Cause I know that I fail
I really ain't any better


I might know Jesus
But I don't really know the saviour


These sober nights
I savour


But they pay me no favour
Cause most of the time

I envy like a hater

And to every rapper out there

I swear I could do better

[Hook]


Take me away from here
Take me away


Take me away, away, away
From here

(Repeat)

[Verse 2]


Lord
This here I pray

I'm tryna be conscious
But it's a delay


Everything is wrong with them
It's never me


But when the Holy
Spirit speaks
I pray lord have mercy


Please don't condemn me
Don't make my life worse


I'm stuck with an English bible
In an Afrikaans church


No girlfriend, no job
No place even to study

And when I decide on something

I get a no from mommy

Should I take theology?
I really don't want to
I want to spread the good news

But should be enslaved to the gospel

You giving me freedom
So can I walk in it?
I know some choices wrong

But can you bless me in it?

I surrender my all
But please don't take my hope
Cause Lord,


I really wish
You just help me cope

But then again I realise
I'm as wrong as the world

I just want my own favour
Without doing you any labour

[Repeat hook]
