One-two, one-two
Homie, look at the time, I'm starting to look and laugh
Tryna' make a couple dimes, they telling me, 'rock a mask'
I 'member when I was low down, drunk, and looking for cash
Now I'm standing at the check-out, couple of paces back
What a time, as a young 'un, I thought of rocking a ski mask
Thinking it was a G-pass, now I'm looking at every other shopper in the self check-out (Word)
The workers got to wipe the aisle down for I step out (Yeah)
I'm never comfy in the crowd now, better spread out (Word)
Think of corona, get a frown now (Huh?)
I'm with the babies in the market, move around pal (Back)
Hey, yo, I'm shook of what could happen, if I let a sneeze out
Even the feeling kind of tragic when I got to breathe out (Yeah)
Look at the madness, it's a casket, every time I read
'Bout another body or a family, God I'm crying, scream out (Word)
I ain't a zombie and I promptly gotta start to speak 'bout
Get some purell, for we start to leave out (Come to think of it)
It's real

I know it's dark and I know there's something
I know it's hard, I know we struggling
I just got to go in public
Trust in God, I know He's covering
I know it's dark and I know there's something
I know it's hard, I know we struggling
I just got to go in public
Trust in God, I know He's covering

[Datin:]
I took a look at my account and I panicked
My finances took a gigantic hit because life ended
Meager bag of lemons, 'How the heck will I manage?'
I'm frantic with fear, 'cuz everything that I planned is
Ruined, my goal was this, go on tour, hit the road but since
Covid hit, all my shows are over wit
I'm a newly wed, so I can't let my wife shoulder this
Financial burden by herself, that's why I'm throwing fits
But if I logged into my memory and pressed rewind
I see He got me out of every bind, every time
He took me out of poverty, committing petty crimes
To testify Him, 'bout His goodness, on a steady climb
So, if He hasn't failed me yet, why would He fail me now?
He held me down, so I know that He gon' bail me out
I hit my knees and I repent for my anxiety
It may not be what I want, but I know that, He'll provide for me
Yeah

[Jered Sanders:]
I know it's dark and I know there's something
I know it's hard, I know we struggling
I just got to go in public
Trust in God, I know He's covering
I know it's dark and I know there's something
I know it's hard, I know we struggling
I just got to go in public
Trust in God, I know He's covering

[Bumps:]
Huh, yeah, hey
2020 huh?
It's a crazy issue
I'm thinking twice about this world I'm bringing babies into (Yeah)
'Cuz I've been meeting with the chief
He da leader of the sheep, and dawg, I'm easily deceived
I know my limitations, I'm not immune to buying into some misinformation
So, I'mma stick to what I know, yeah
And love people just the best that I can
I knew you're politics don't make you any less of a man
'Cuz yo, look, I just focus on my craft
Even thought a lot of folks will get emotional and mad
Over something that a total stranger posted on the gram
I'm like, bruh, 'Why not just put your phone away and laugh?' (Haha)
But I'mma mind my own business though
Got my own problems, I don't need to go add in some more
So even though this year here, has been a circus
I know behind the scenes, that there's a purpose, 'cuz He's perfect

[Jered Sanders:]
I know it's dark and I know there's something
I know it's hard, I know we struggling
I just got to go in public
Trust in God, I know He's covering
I know it's dark and I know there's something
I know it's hard, I know we struggling
I just got to go in public
Trust in God, I know He's covering you
