[chorus: lincee st. amand, kingsleyiii, the black ace, nigel, alexander]
i’ve been way, way down here for too long (we praise him, we praise him)
waiting for my blessing to come on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him)
[post+chorus]

he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him) [yeah]
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him) [j+a+y]
[verse 1: jay]
i done lost my way my man, i can’t lie
rooted in depression, it’s telling me stand down
you can’t lift a finger to hit me ’cause hands down
i’m a child of the most high being who’s seen me lay hands down
strength that i need when i least expect it
energy, my release getting redirected
friends turn enemies and they see me stressing
dame lillard step+back, breathe a second
understand, when i’m broke, that don’t mean that i’m broken
you don’t want smoke, toke, but you still a token
always switch sides, can’t hold your emotions
no faith, envy or hate, it’s so hopeless
pain is god’s megaphone
he hallow out your heart so happiness your home
sometimes it’s hard to hear and then you’re all alone
sometimes he break you down so he can make you strong, gon’
[chorus]
i’ve been way, way down here for too long (we praise him, we praise him)
waiting for my blessing to come on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him)
[post+chorus]
lord, you’re merciful
lord, you’re gracious (we praise him, we praise him)
when i had no reason to go on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him) [yeah]
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him) [uh+huh]
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him)
[verse 2]
you’ve been my strength, protection, cure from infection
place of acceptance, answer to questions
light when i can’t see, crutch when i can’t walk
voice when i can’t talk, food for my soul when it’s holes in the pantry
life when it’s do+or+die, barrier from suicide
i just wanna make ’em understand that you alive
fixer of the broken
muse in my melody, lord to jehovah
when that gun should’ve took my life, you was right there
days in the dark when i cried, you would write tears
lord never left me when i wasn’t living right here
had my back turned, i was acting out of spite, yeah
i believe in looking at the proof and it’s right there
people say they never seen you, but you right there
you done gave me everything i need in my life, yeah
so it’s only right that i’m giving you my life, yeah
[chorus: lincee st. amand, kingsleyiii, the black ace, nigel, alexander]
i’ve been way, way down here for too long (we praise him, we praise him)
waiting for my blessing to come on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him)
[post+chorus]
lord, you’re merciful
lord, you’re gracious (we praise him, we praise him)
when i had no reason to go on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him) [look]
[verse 3]
in the end, it was all about trust
all about relations, all about us
all about living and learning about love
i was busy looking for answers inside l+st
most of us don’t have guides so we wander, aimless
ignorance is bliss, so aimless and painless
all this time getting wasted, we getting wasted
and feeling empty in the place and can’t change it
nothing more powerful than love, period
lies true strength in the place where your spirit is
you can show him any of your scars and he sealing it
you can bring him any of your pain and he healing it
lies true strength in the place where your spirit is
nothing more powerful than love, period
praying somebody who needs this is hearing it
and get a droptop ’cause the ceiling is limitless, i’m gone
[chorus]
i’ve been way, way down here for too long (we praise him, we praise him)
waiting for my blessing to come on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him)
[post+chorus]
lord, you’re merciful
lord, you’re gracious (we praise him, we praise him)
when i had no reason to go on (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
he’s worthy, he’s worthy (we praise him, we praise him)
giving all the glory my god (we praise him, we praise him)
praise him, yeah, yeah
we praise him, we praise him
we praise him, we praise him
