I want to take my life today

I don't belong here anyway

My God if You can hear me now

See if Your hand can reach this far



You stopped playing father

As soon as Mom conceived

The only time we touched

Was just before I screamed



The gift that keeps on giving

Your father gives to me

History repeats itself

Now history meets me



So what if I'm retarded

Mentally delayed

I'm sorry for ignoring you

But I was born this way



You speak so much better

Got an aerodynamic face

Mega-babes and tons of friends

So why show so much hate



Vultures are circling again

My open wounds are food for them

Oh God if You will reach Your hand

You can deliver me from man



You hurt me

You walked on me

You walked on me

I wasn't hurting anybody, was I

You only hurt me 'cause he hurt you

You hurt me, yeah

I was already down

And you kicked me

Then you left me



But I'll get up

I'll get up

I'll get up

Watch me get up



Men fail me...

But the Son of God saves



When I've face down

And I'm scared and lonely

You are by my side



I'm talking face on the ground

My back is painted with footprints

You're the only one

That hears me cry



I seek I find just one Name

By which a man can be saved

And He comes before

My tears can dry



Now I'm not alone

No I'm not alone

And I'm free now cause

I've got no pain to pass on
