Pastor Julian Littlejohn - Dark Place Lyrics
[Verse]Even with my eyes open it’s a dark placeEven when I smile it’s a dark faceWho’s the dummy in the mirror? Yeah I hate myselfWho’s the one I wanna kill? I wanna kill myselfCould it be hope in this last breath?Could it be hope if I take this step?Nah, I’m just trippingI need to shake it off. I need to stand upI need to pray it off. I can’t give upNeed to walk this road with my head upNeed to walk this road with my hands upNeed to walk this road with the Holy SpiritNeed to walk this road with my faith in itNeed to walk this road like I’m gonna win itNeed to fast all night ‘til I see the truthNeed to read all night to get close to YouNeed to praise all night to get close to YouYeah, to get close to You[Bridge]Have you ever needed rest but ya couldn’t sleep?Room full of silence, but ya can’t think?All the air that you need, but ya can’t breathe?Seeing twenty-twenty, but ya can’t see?Gotta ask myself can ya hear me nowYou don’t need they claps gon’ take a bowGon’ take a deep breath gon’ head and smileThey say pain comes for a little whileJoy never seems to come on my blockSanta Clause in the hood, not on my blockHappy married in the hood, not on my blockNaw, not on my blockTime to pack up from this old streetMove closer to the Lord ‘cause He loves meI’m a soldier of the Lord, thought they knew meI’m a truth teller, stronger than a OGIf I write a dark song can ya hear me now?If I talk about death can ya feel me know?If I cry on a single would you buy it now?If I told you I was broke would you book me now?[Verse]People rather just die ‘cause they can’t cryAnd you still can’t tell ‘em that you’re sorry?And you still can’t tell ‘em that you’re wrong?Yeah I’m praying for youNo love in your heart let’s pray it inNo joy in your heart let us sing it inNo peace in your heart let Him bring it inLet Him bring it inPut the dark down, don’t you give upGet that bible open and keep your chin upLet the angels sing to you with their wings upLet the Lord speak to you with His healing touchLet the Lord love on you with His healing touchLet the Lord guide you with His healing touchYeah, with His healing touch[Bridge]Have you ever needed rest but ya couldn’t sleep?Room full of silence, but ya can’t think?All the air that you need, but ya can’t breathe?Seeing twenty-twenty, but ya can’t see?Gotta ask myself can you hear me nowYou don’t need they claps gon’ take a bowGon’ take a deep breath gon’ head and smileThey say pain comes for a little whileJoy never seems to come on my blockSanta Clause in the hood, not on my blockHappy married in the hood, not on my blockNaw, not on my blockTime to pack up from this old streetMove closer to the Lord ‘cause He loves meI’m a soldier of the Lord, thought they knew meI’m a truth teller, stronger than a OGIf I write a dark song can they hear me now?If I talk about death can you feel me know?If I cry on a single would you buy it now?If I told you I was broke would you book me now?[Outro]Get the tears off your face, toughen up chiefYou gon’ graduate this, cap and gown pleaseYou gon’ see it to the end, here’s the finish line
