Some days feel like one long fight
Don’t sleep much at all, just lay awake at night
The bills stacked high, and gas tanks on low
Workin’ all week just to stay broke
I put on my smile, play the part
But it’s hard to fake strong when life’s just so damn hard
So much on my shoulders, all this time
Just hoping Heaven’s readin’ my mind.
Like the driver whose engine blew two laps from the end
The rider that got bucked just outta’ the pen
The 4th quarter football game, losing 42 to nothin’
I’m just lookin’ to the sky, askin’ for a little somethin’
Just looking for a little help from above
Not asking for much.
Something to help me out in this life
Guess I should’ve kept better in touch
Always counted on him to be there
When the times were getting rough
I only looked to him when I was needy
Not when I didn’t need him much
Gotta change my ways, I see that now
If you can spare some time for me
I’ll do whatever I have to do
To be a better man—you’ll see
Folks say life comes in waves
Some days you win, some you pray
And I’ve been stuck in a losing streak
Just tryin’ to stand on two tired ol’ feet
If it’s not one thing, it’s everything
Like even the wind fights my wings
If there’s a light, I’ve lost the spark
So, I’m sending this up from the dark
Like the singer forgetting the words halfway through the song
Or the kid on the bench just tryin’ to belong
Like a dream that fades right at the best part
I’m just reaching out with a worn-down heart
Just looking for a little help from above
Not asking for much
Something to help me out in this life
Guess I should’ve kept better in touch
Always counted on him to be there
When the times were getting rough
I only looked to him when I was needy
Not when I didn’t need Him much
Gotta change my ways, I see that now
If you can spare some time for me
I’ll do whatever I have to do
To be a better man—you’ll see
Now I ain’t askin’ for perfect days
Just the strength to make it through
I’ll walk the road if you lead the way
I just need a sign from You
Just looking for a little help from above
Not asking for much
Something to hold me up tonight
I’m finally ready to trust
I always counted on you to be there
Even when I messed things up
I’m done only runnin’ when it’s stormin’
I’m showin’ up through the sun
Gonna change my ways, I swear it now
If You styill believe in me
I’ll do whatever I have to do
To be the man you made me to be
