[Intro 1]
[Am][Em]
[Am][G][C][F][G]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
This just [G]the way [F]I feel
Mind's been racing so [Am]long,
[G]yea[Am]h
It's just no [C]way [G]to [F]deal
With these problems [Am]alone
[G]And I really can't

[Verse 2]
[Am]take it no more
I've been fighting tempta[G]tions,
my Lord
I'm young and I'm [F]restless
And I really can't help it
[G]And I never felt sel[Am]fish before
I've been living so [G]reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can You [F]help me?
I said, "Lord, can You help [G]me?"

[Verse 3]
Now every[Am]body got problems,
yeah
But wouldn't [G]know what way to solve 'em
I really [F]came up from the bottom
Struggling, my momma on her last dollar
[G]Hustling and I've been put[Am]
ting in these hours
Government been tryna [G]take
away what's ours

[Verse 4]
Really all about the [F]money and the power
I just wanna see my [G]people empowered
[Am]Tell me how we gon' shape this vision
Com[G]plaining all day but in the
same condition
[F]Wanna make change,

[Verse 5]
it's gon' take commitment
[F]People enslaved by [G]their religion
Can't [Am]emancipate them
from the mental prisons
[G]Seen through optics
transform to wisdom
Watch me [F]use my prophets,
get 'em all to listen
I've been on a mission, ah
[G]I really can't

[Verse 6]
[Am]take it no more
I've been fighting tempta[G]tions,
my Lord
I'm making 'em [F]restless
And I really can't help it
And I [G]never felt [Am]selfish before
I've been living so [G]reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can you [F]help me?
I said, "Lord, can you help [G]me?"

[Verse 7]
Now [G]everybody got [Am]vices, yeah
But wouldn't [G]know what good advice is
Until [F]they leave 'em lifeless
Another mama crying, it's another crisis
[G]Lord knows we just try[Am]na
live righteous
Are you [Em]willing just to
[G]make the sacrifices?
[Dm]No, we can't con

[Verse 8]
[F]
tinue living like this
[C]And I'll never sell my soul
'cause that's priceless
[G]Tel[Am]l me how we gon'
make a liv[C]ing
[G]Hustle on the [Dm]block,
who gon' save the children?
[F]Man, it's all a plot and I'm [C]just revealing

[Verse 9]
The [G]medi[F]a just tryna [G]make a villain
[Am]I just take the pain and paint a picture
[G]Voices in my head, I [F]hear the whispers
When I feel this way, inhale the swisher
Or I sip the liquor
[G]I really can't

[Verse 10]
[Am]take it no more
I've been fighting tempta[G]tions,
my Lord
I'm making 'em [F]restless
And I really can't help it
And I [G]never felt [Am]selfish before
I've been living so [G]reckless, I know
Tell me Lord, can you [F]help me?
I said, "Lord,
can you help [G]me?"[Am]

[Verse 11]
This just the [G]way I [F]feel
Mind's been racing so long, [G]yeah[Am]
It's just no [G]way to [F]deal
With these problems alone
And I [G]really can't

[Verse 12]
