Kirk Franklin - Let It Go Lyrics
My Mama Gave Me Up When I Was Four Years OldShe Didn't Destroy My Body But She Killed My SoulNow It's Cold 'cause I'm Sleeping In My Back SeatUnderstand The Spirit's Willing But My Flesh Is WeakLet Me Speak, I Never Had A Chance To DreamTen Years Old Finding Love In Dirty MagazinesMs. December You Remember I Bought You TwiceNow I'm Thirty Plus And Still Paying The PriceHad A Sister That I Barely KnewKind Of Got Separated By The Age Of TwoSame Mama Different Daddy So We Couldn't Fake ItI Saw My Sister's Daddy Beat Her In The Tub *****Take It Serious The Demons In The Man's MindThe Same Daddy With Rape Charges Now He's Doing TimeCrack Followed And Like Daddy Prison Thirteen YearsHaven't Her But She's Traded Tears For Fears[chorus]Shout. ShoutLet It All OutThese Are The Things I Can Do WithoutSo Come OnI'm Talking To YouSo Come OnSex Was How I Made It ThroughWithout Someone To Teach You Love What Else Is There To Do?So Where I'm From They Call You Gay And Say You Ain't A ManShow Them You Ain't No PunkGet All The Girls You CanA Simple Plan That Still Haunts Me Even Now TodayBack To Seventeen And Got A Baby On The WayNo G.e.d. All I See Is Failure In My EyesIf You Listening Then Remember I ApologizeI Was Raised Falling In The ChurchMade Mistakes Heard The Lord's Calling In The ChurchAfter Service On The Parking Lot Getting HighWanted To Be Excepted So Bad I Was Willing To DieEven Tried To Tell The Pastor But He Couldn't SeeYears Of Low Self Esteem And InsecuritiesChurch Taught Me How To Shout And How To Speak In TonguesBut Preacher Teach Me How To Live Now When The Tongue Is Done, Help Me[chorus]See I'm. See I'mSoul Surviver. Soul SurviverWorld SurviverI Just Wanna Let It GoWorld Surviver, Soul SurviverJust Wanna Let It GoJesus Please On My Knees Can't You Hear My CryingYou Said To Put It In Your Hands And Lord I'm Really TryingYou Wasn't Lying When You Said You'd Reap What You SowLike That Night Mama DiedHard To Let It GoYou Adopted MeCared For MeAnd Changed My NameBut I Cursed At YouLied To YouLeft Your PainIt's Not Strange I Can Still See It In My HeadTo Know For Hours You Were Laying In That BedIf You Listening To This Record,If It's Day Our NightIf My Mama Still Living Treat Your Mama RightDon't Be Like Me And Let That Moment Slip AwayAnd Be Careful Cause You Can't Take Back What You SayTo My Real Mama If You Listening I'm Letting It GoTo My Father I Forgive You 'cause You Didn't KnowThe Pain Was Preparation For My DestinyAnd One More Thing Lord Let My Son Be A Better Man Than Me[chorus 2x]
