intro
I know that it's seeming sometimes that no matter what you do
No matter how hard you work
Struggle to make things better in your life
For some reason you're not getting nowhere
Well I want you to turn to the one next to you and tell him
verse
Thought they had your back
And every time you turn around
It seems you're under attack, yeah yeah yeah
But turn to your neighbour and say
chorus
You gotta stop that hatin'
I know you don't wanna hear it
Gotta fast and pray and listen to the Spirit
(God's tryna tell me something)
He's speaking to your heart right now
(God's tryna tell me something)
Just listen to the Spirit, oh
(God's tryna tell me something)
chorus
I wish you would just turn to your neighbor
It's okay to cry (neighbor)
You gotta stop that hatin'
I know you don't wanna hear it
Gotta fast and pray and listen to the Spirit
(God's tryna tell me something)
He's speaking to your heart right now
(God's tryna tell me something)
Just listen to the Spirit, oh
(God's tryna tell me something)
verse
I did everything I could to take away my trouble
And everything I tried did not stop my struggle
Guess I was in my own way
But I'm here to tell you, without His grace I'm a major failure
Know that you can't fix it
Just give it to Jesus, oh can I get a witness
You gotta listen to the Spirit
chorus
(God's tryna tell you something)
Yes He is, He's trying to get your attention right now
(God's tryna tell you something)
I know you got your own plan, but God's got a better one
(God's tryna tell you something)
God's tryna tell you something
(Tell me, can you hear it)
God's tryna tell you something
God's tryna tell you something
God's tryna tell you something
(Tell me, can you hear it)
God's tryna tell you something
God's tryna tell you something
