What I Need (A Sinner’s Prayer Remix)
[Intro]
Give me what I need
Give me what I need
Lord, I need You
Oh, God
Give me what I need

[Verse 1]
Lord, help me when I hesitate
To call on You 'cause better days
Keep eludin' me but I was taught to never question faith
Keep prayin' for blessings and I hopin' that they resonate
With You every issue that I been through is a test of faith
Oh, and it gets hard 'cause we get scars from things we didn't mean to do
Thinkin' I need the material things around me but all I need is You
Hoping you let me see the truth
Through the eyes I'm seein' through
Let other people see it too
I'm the faith of a mustered seed that grew
People can be so spiteful, prideful
Givin' they lives to bury themselves underneath they treasures, makin' it harder to find you
It'll never feel like Heaven no matter the earthly heights they climb to
There's no mask you could ever wear to hide from the one who designed you
Lord, I need Your sympathy, Your empathy
Protection from my enemies
Protect me from myself so I can receive what was meant to be and meant for me
I will follow where You lead, Lord
[Chorus]
Give me what I need
Ooh, 'cause I can't do it on my own, Lord
Give me what I need
Ooh, I can't make it here alone
Not what I want but what I need, oh
Give me what I need

[Verse 2]
The world hurtin', soul searchin', in need of purpose
I keep a Glock with a thirty for demons lurkin'
A new world, the old gone, it's closed curtains
Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, we need a verdict
The Bible in the Smith & Wesson only thing for certain
Mo' money, mo' problems is what I'm learnin'
What you know about your earnings becoming a burden?
Real recognize real, I'ma keep assertin'
All facts, no cap, first name Sojourner
Bright lights in my eyes on this blind journey
Ain't no answers for these trick questions
Gotta manifest your destiny while you count your blessings
Empire state of mind, what's the point of stressin'?
If God got my back, the Glock a double blessin'
But never shoot first, that's the main lesson
The choppa name Hallelujah, praise is my weapon (Hallelujah)
Big stamp on Jehovah-jireh, what I'm reppin'
Walkin' on water so I ain't sweatin'
[Bridge]
I'm coming to you, Lord, forgive me for I have sinned
Against Your will, against other men
I don't want to die in sin
I am a little more than dirt (A little more than dirt)
A little more than dirt (I'm a little more than dirt)
I am ('Cause I come from the Earth)
All dust comes from the Earth (Let Your will be done on Earth)
Let Your will be done in me (That Your will be done in me)
Let Your will be done in me, yeah (That Your will be done in me)
That's what I need ('Cause that's what I need)
That's what I need (That's what I need)
Give me what I need
Ooh, I can't do it on my own, no, no (Give me what I need)
Ooh, I can't make it here alone, no, no, no
Not what I want but everything that I need
'Cause You know what's best for me, yeah
So give me what I need

[Outro]
I'm no longer the same, Lord
My life has been changed, Lord
Because I know that what You want for me
Is exactly what I need
