Should I... Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I wonder if brothers
chose to like to self -fuse
[G]Who would choose to listen,
or refuse and diss them, no matter
These [Am]issues are the ones I must face,
confront and deal with
If I don't, I can't be a
genuine youth [G]man
Being, seeing new ways to live in
New days of mercy extended to [Am]us
Yet, I pretended as if I didn't know
Too smart to play dumb role
in the story of my life
[G]Now why would I lie if I want the truth?
Why call myself a misfit
if I care about how I'm viewed in
[Am]the eyes of man?
When I need,
only be concerned with the lesson plan,
learn from Christ, it lands on
[G]When the spot on myself is blown,
exposed before the one by
whom all is known
Prior to my [F]knowledge, I cannot deny, nigh
I must [G]draw to El Shaddai, God,
correct, humanitize
[Am]Perfect error whenever we
think we've arrived
It's a perfect error
whenever we think we've arrived
Should I or should I not
Think these thoughts and foot this walk
I [G]cannot find another way out
I now know it's you
I've gotta learn about
[Am]Should I or should I not
Think these thoughts and foot this walk
I cannot find [G]another way out
I now know it's you I've gotta learn about
[Am]It moves gradually, these radical plots
Of self -sabotage,
they infiltrate my thoughts
[G]I feel lost and forsaken
in a foreign land
Soaking in the pouring rain,
holding out an empty hand
[Am]Begging for some change,
to redirect my path
Cause once I'm gone
I know I can't come back
[G]So what's left for me?
My shattered destinies
scattered through my life
I'm a father with no wife
[Am]And that knife burns when it
cuts and slices
What's inside is left cold and lifeless
[G]I can't fight this feeling of abandonment
I look around and wonder
where Armani went
[Am]I've spent sleepless nights
writhing in sweat
Living lives of regret
for things that have yet to take [G]place
My pulse races for the finish line
I keep pacing, wondering when it's time
[F]To start chasing behind
hell -bent and reckless
In[G]tent on killing this pain
that beats me senseless
[Am]But my patience is endless
And in my suffering
I find hope in a message
Should I or should I not
Use this knife to take my life
I cannot fight [G]this war and lose
So I must turn my life to you
[Am]Should I or should I not
Use this knife to take my life
I [G]cannot fight this war and lose
So I must turn my life to you
Standing on the [Am]cliff in the night
On the edge of my life
Should I give up or fight?
The pain is like a surgeon's [G]knife
Surgeon right
Deep beneath my eyes
So I scrutinize
Why did [Am]I lose my wife?
I take the blame
Take the shame
And pile it on
And pile it on
The pain [G]I find myself on this isle insane
Mile after mile
And it's the same
I'm [Am]isolated, desperate, and alone
Don't know where I'm going
And so I roam by my[G]self,
it seems the unknown screams silence
So I'm standing on this cliff in defiance,
my [Am]fist drawn in the midst of the dawn
Will this be the last note
that's played in my song?
Or [F]should I live, give myself to the
[G]battle against the wrong?
Flipping the world on, till the pain [Am]is gone,
going headstrong
Fighting till the day is done,
then all night long
Should I or should I not
throw myself upon these rocks?
I cannot [G]find another way out
But somehow you help me turn around
[Am]Should I, or should I not
Throw myself upon these rocks
I [G]cannot find another way out
But somehow you help me turn around
[Am]Should I, or should I not
Throw myself upon these rocks
I cannot [G]find another way out
But somehow you help me turn around
[Am]Should I, or should I, or should I not
I [G]cannot find another way out,

[Outro 1]
but somehow you help me turn around
[G]
