God knows

The pain keeps hurting and I just can’t stop it

I’ve been preaching this for years behind invisible pulpit

The irony’s not lost on it’s God who had called it

Said get up off your knees cause the praying looks like begging

And nobody can hear you when your voice is just shaking

So sit down and start listening when I start talking

‘Cause you’ll never hear the words when your minds always walking

The pain keeps hurting and I just can’t stop it

Said he wouldn’t if he could cause the lessons in the learning

And you can’t stop the fire if you’re the one burning

Said that I’m the only one who can ever stop the hurting

‘Cause the knife cuts deeper when you’re the one holding

And the scars seems thicker when the skin is thinner

So get up off your knees, you never played a good sinner

Trying hard to heal for the words that weren’t meant for me

Playing on repeat in my mind for that one to see

The ones who try to break us are the ones who are broken

God knows that’s the work of the ones so misspoken

The pain stops hurting when the healing is the winner

Said follow my saints and not the sinners

Follow the saints and not those sinners…
