(Ah ah, ah ah)
The feeling I feel I can't define
The peace that I need is hard to find
I can't get away (Can't get away)
From these memories
That keep haunting me
Sitting in my living room (Living room)
And then the other day
I was stitching you (Then the other day)
Fixing all your broken pieces down in the trauma bay (Fixing all your broken pieces)
And then you spit me out
Like I was bad food (You spit me out)
Treat me so ugly with the nasty in your attitude
I guess you got me good (You got me good)
You got me losing sleep
My faith losing grip (You got me losing sleep)
Captain of a sinking ship
These waters so deep
Sallie Mae Knocking me
Working like a stripper
I'm just living off of every tip (I'm just living off of every tip)
God knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's hard to sleep, I know
Lord knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's hard to sleep, uh uhn
God knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's hard to sleep, I know (Ah ah, ah ah)
Lord knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's ha-a-ard to sleep
They ask me all the time (They ask me all the time)
Are you doing alright?
I tell 'em it ain't easy but I'm trying (but I'm trying)
I just got a lot on my mind (I just got a lot on my mind)
I ain't gonna tell no lie
I ain't slept all night
Say that I am fine (Say that I am fine)
But I'm searching for some peace and I can't find it
It's gon' be alright yeah
It's just gonna take a little time, yeah (Ah ah)
Imma keep it rollin' can't retire
Cause my momma said don't show 'em when you're tired, ah ah
Praying for some peace and some guidance
God knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's hard to sleep, I know
Lord knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's hard to sleep, uh uhn
God knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's hard to sleep, I know
Lord knows I've been praying for peace
Instead you got my heart racing it's ha-a-ard to sleep
What you give
Is what you receive (Wah)
What you think in your mind
Is what you will see (Wah)
The fruit on the tree
Is just a receipt (Wah)
Of what was bought and sold at the root of the tree (Wah)
Your soul is yearning
For once to be free (Wah)
Then stop your hiding
Expose the disease (Wah)
You meant the world to me (Wah)
But this is hard to see (Wah)
I'll fight a war for you (Wah)
Down in the trench for you (Wah)
Oh, I'll fight a war for you (Wah)
