I Surrender Songtext

Yeah I know, y'know, what a calling is
I mean we all have a calling in our life, I believe
You know I'm from the dirt man
I come up in these streets, went without eatin', you know what I'm sayin'?
!?s!,,nsdi?gssnc
Saw my Mom go without eatin'
I got tired of that I had to go out there
In them streets and hustle, you know?
I mean you know what I'm sayin'?
!?s!,,nsdi?gssnc
I mean it's easy for y'all to say, y'know [I surrender]
Surrender your life, you know what I'm sayin'? [I surrender]
Give your life to God and all that
Y'know, that's good and I believe in God [I surrender to you Lord]
But when you got bills at your front door all the time
You know what I'm sayin'?
!?s!,,nsdi?gssnc
Kids screamin' "Daddy, Momma, where the food at?" [I surrender]
Man it makes it kinda hard to believe in [I surrender]
Y'know, and have faith in something that you can't see [I surrender to your Lord]
Even though you wanna believe
Y'all just gonna have to just pray for me
You know what I'm sayin'? 'Cause uh

Constantly my mind and my heart is racing [yeah]
All by myself trying to solve all these problems I'm facing [oh yeah]
Looking to man trying to find hope [uh-huh]
But man will never know the depth of my struggles [oh]
I was depending on myself [on myself]
To give myself a hand [wow but]
But when depending on myself [I]
Fell time again [that's why]
And that's why I'm standing here alone [all alone]
With no one else
Lord I realised that I can't fight these battles by myself

I surrender
I surrender [oh I]
I surrender to you Lord
I surrender
I surrender [oh I]
I surrender to you Lord
I surrender [I surrender]
I surrender [Lord to you]
I surrender to you Lord
Coming out with both hands up
I surrender [uhh]

Listen
I tried everything I could to make it work [mmm-hmm]
But everything I seemed to try just made it worse [ohh]
And every road that I'd go down there were no signs [signs]
Destination lonely with no peace of mind [yeah, ohh]
I was depending on myself [on myself]
To give myself a hand [but when]
But when depending on myself [I would fell time and time again]
Fell time again [that's why]
And that's why I'm standing here alone [standing all alone]
With no one else
Lord I realised that I can't fight these battles by myself
I surrender

I surrender
I surrender [oh I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [said I surrender]
I surrender [ohh I]
I surrender [surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [I done tried everything and now I]
I surrender [surrender yeah]
I surrender [to you Lord]
I surrender to you Lord
Coming out with both hands up
I surrender [ohh]

Won't you guard the place around it
[There's no where for me to go]
Joy I have tried to find [whoo]
[See I've searched high and I've searched low]
Said you walked throughout the building
So come and rescue me from this hell
'Cause I can't do it by myself [I can't do it by myself]

I surrender [hey I surrender]
I surrender [ohh] [I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [I surrender] [I surrender to you Lord] [yes I do]
I surrender [I surrender] [I surrender] [to you]
I surrender [yeah]
I surrender to you Lord ['cause I'm sick and tired of going through]
I surrender [I need your help] [need your help]
I surrender [to find my may] [to find my way]
I surrender to you Lord [I'm here and willing] [here and willing] [to make a change] [make a change, yeah]
I surrender [I surrender all my darkness] [hey] [I surrender]
I surrender [now you give me your light] [yes sir] [I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [I surrender all my wrongs] [yes I do] [and Lord you make it right] [make it right] [I surrender]
I surrender [I surrender my situation] [I surrender] [I surrender]
I surrender [and Lord fix it for me] [fix it for me] [I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [no more hesitation] [hey] [here I am on my knees] [I surrender]
I surrender [I surrender] [I surrender] [I surrender]
I surrender [I surrender] [I surrender] [I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [I surrender] [I surrender] [whoo, hey] [I surrender]
I surrender [I surrender my self, my house, my kids, my wife] [yeah] [I surrender]
I surrender [my dog, my car, my love, my life] [yes sir] [I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord [Lord I surrender my soul] [oh-ho] [I surrender]
I surrender [you have got complete control] [haha] [I surrender]
I surrender [of the situation] [I surrender]
I surrender to you Lord
