How Much Longer - D White

I’ve been sick

I’ve been tired

I’ve been helpless

I’ve been hopeless

I’ve been greedy

I’ve been selfish

I’ve been waiting on the answer no response

Out of patience

Gotta get it while you’re on

Look

I only came this far for y’all

I understand, but tell me how long

Need the power to stay on

Ain’t no food in the fridge

Momma still hurting

How much time you gotta give?

How much time you gotta give?

Uh uh uh uhh yea

Silence won’t get you feed

Mills written into existence

Got it on my own under complicated conditions

With a bag full of lemons break them thangs down

Add some water then you flip them

Sad when you gotta chose survival over living

It’s a way life

Fighting through the day to make it through the night

Every night, get it through your mind

Don’t want to have to bust it open

Didn’t pick it out

Believe me when I say I’m chosen

Mary kept me grounded

Planted like I’m Joseph

Moves on the 586 to the door

Uh

Mobbing back and forth like we never knew what home was

Never told a lie

Still rose up out the low end

Yea

And they gonna feel me before I’m gone

I’m gonna say what I need

They gonna feel me before I’m gone

I’m gonna say what I need

I’m gonna say what I need

They gonna feel me before I’m gone

I’m gonna say what I need

They gonna feel me before I’m gone

I’m gonna say what I need
