Don't Cry

(Died for a second
So did I for a second
Oh Lord, I look up into the sky and thank my blessings
So you're taking me early, are the gates really pearly?
Will I wake up in the morning?)

I'm bleeding out, I'm bleeding out
My eyes are full of blood, they're closing up
My clothes are tight enough, they cut them off
The skies aren't bright enough to see the gods
One hand on the crown, I'm on the ground
Tears are falling as she's looking down
The sky looks way darker than usual
And it's like dark's becoming beautiful

I told her, "Don't cry, be a soldier"
Now you're holding your composure
I think I see the Holy Ghost
I'm not ready yet to leave the throne
Ah, no crying, I'm a soldier
And I'm holding my composure
I think I see the Holy Ghost
I'm not ready yet to leave the throne

Night-night to my enemies
Didn't think I would survive my injuries
Didn't think the Almighty would intervene
I know they are praying for the death of me (Death of me)
If life was a melody
Would the angels congregate and sing for me?
Blue lights in the sky signify tragedy
You're chosen by the heavens then you have to leave (Have to leave)

Tell me, did you think I'd died for a second?
So did I for a second
Oh Lord, I look up into the sky and thank my blessings
So you're taking me early, are the gates really pearly?
Will I wake up in the morning?

Where was you when you seen it?
Nearly died and I mean it
I can not think of another time in life that I have needed
The support of my people
Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil

Thought I told her, "Don't cry, be a soldier"
Now you're holding your composure
I think I see the Holy Ghost
I'm not ready yet to leave the throne
Ah, no crying, I'm a soldier
And I'm holding my composure
I think I see the Holy Ghost
I'm not ready yet to leave the throne

Night-night to my enemies
Didn't think I would survive my injuries
Didn't think the Almighty would intervene
I know they are praying for the death of me (Death of me)
If life was a melody
Would the angels congregate and sing for me?
Blue lights in the sky signify tragedy
You're chosen by the heavens then you have to leave (Have to leave)

Shoot me down, paranoia
Bring a medic, bring a lawyer
I can't even bear the thought
Of living on with all this trauma
If the blood thickens up and goes to your heart
Will you fall apart when the bright days start to feel dark?
If it's breaking my spirit and I pray, will you hear it?
Hallelujah, hallelujah
If it's breaking my spirit and I pray, will you hear it?
Hallelujah, hallelujah
