(Chorus - ELLE)

Every Day,
I sit, I wait, I pray,
But something's in my way,
Lord help me find my grace,
To win or lose this race.
Find myself trying to win,
But these walls wont let me in,
I need your strength - your love.
(Yea, yea, yea)

(Verse 1 - James Julius)

What happened to me?
I used to be so passionate,
Now when The Spirit rolls through I'm passin' it,
Now I'm chillin' with the flesh instead of attackin' it,
Help me see that your grace is immaculate,
I need your grace, I need your strength,
I don't really give a care what people think,
Cuz the pain starts to gain and I can't maintain,
It looks like I'm just stuck in a rain,
With no umbrella,
I'm just another fella who got his shortcomings,
Man I shoulda known betta,
And the rain keeps falling and I keep gettin' wetta',
No signs if sunshine,
No signs of gettin' betta,
How'd this happen?
I'm so gone in the midst of storm in a danger zone,
I'm callin' to you now, "Please pick up your phone"
Cuz I'm lost and I don't know how to get home,
I'm broken, was hopin' that you would open your arms,
And let me rest in your pleasant presence from dusk until dawn,
Oh I'd do anything just to feel your love,
Lord come fill my cup,
I'm desperate for your touch Father,
Cuz I can't get enough!

(Chorus)

(Verse 2 - James Julius)

I keep on sinnin',
I can't keep goin' pretending,
Like this aint killin' me cuz really I don't feel like I'm livin',
At night when I'm asleep,
I toss and turn in my sheets,
Because of my dreams I'm havin' scenes of burnin' agony and heat,
I wake up kickin' and screamin',
Lord Jesus what is the meanin'?!
Is this my fate that I'm seein' when I'm no longer breathin?!
I hit my knees and start grievin',
Tell my soul, "It's time for a cleanin!"
Act like the tower of Pisa,
And I begin to start leanin',
On the son like I oughta be,
The one who's ruling sovereignly,
The potter who spotted me,
Molded me like I was pottery,
Man I shoulda been dead,
In the ground them worms shoulda been fed,
But ya you heard my cry Lord,
Ya your heard when i said,
"The enemy,
Gettin' me, sendin' me plenty of negative energy,
Help me please, I'm on my knees,
I need you now, I can't see,
I'm on the line,
Can't go no further right,
I'm lookin' for the light,
But ya I'm walking blind."

(Verse 3 - James Julius)

Every Day, Every Day,
I'm tryin' to get away,
I can't take it not much longer,
Put your grace on me!
When the stone rolled away,
We was sold that day,
And aint no jokin',
If you broken you can be whole today,
And that's the fact of the factor ya!
The "Happy Eva Afta",
Some of y'all got it twisted,
You need to re-read ya chapters,
Ya His, love is extravagant,
But dog that's only half of it,
His wrath is just,
So don't act like the price was inadequate,
Pick up your cross daily,
Man aint no probablys or maybe,
Or you'll be hiding from the son,
Askin', "Why is it so shady?"
You gotta make war,
Don't befriend the enemies tendencies tend to leave plenty grief,
Often offendin' me,
So often I off-em, pop-em, start closin' the coffin,
I'm sick of all his antics,
But you won't catch me coughin',
And I'm not longer a slave,
To myself and my sinfulish ways,
I gotta pick up my cross daily,
Do it every day!

(Chorus)
