Leather & Gold II (Dross) Lyrics

Wish I could be the one You dey search, uh!

Wish I could be the one You dey want now

Wish I could be the one You go always call upon… if You…

You dey search somebody make he do something wey You just de love…

I wish!

Wish I could be the one You dey search, uh!

Wish I could be the one You dey want now

Wish I could be the one You dey search now! Now! Now! Yeah!

Wish I could be the one who go be Your first call, see!

Lord I wish say mi a fi stand up

Me cannot go away, now

When mi look ‘round and mi see e’rything You do fi mi, God it’s big! Yo!

So I…

I just wish I could stand in a place where

I’ll be ready to move pon Your request

I’ll be ready doing e’rything You love, Everthing You want

No rest!

May I? Would I? Could I? Should I?

Should have done it yesterday, huh?

God! You’ve been my only Security

Soul, Spirit Body ain’t got no unity

I’m going in circles. Ain’t this Insanity?

Mastered the art of showing Serenity

But this war inside is just killing me! Killing me!!

This war inside is just killing me! Killing me!

But Wo d) no be too big

Wo d) no be too big

You gave me a second chance

And a third one

And I’m still here

Lord, I’m still here

And I’m alive!

I’m alive!

I’m alive for Your Glory sake

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe

It’s time to pay The Piper but I’m a coward so I run

Life’s hitting left and right ain’t a joke, heh, like a bad pun

All these beauties, they be seeing You in me

They show me love so they could call me hun

But the Work’s big so I can’t stop and I can’t look till I’m done

I know these things that I’m saying in this song are very sensitive

And… eh… normally Christians don’t want to share

Even though Christians feel and go through these pains

I wrote it for people who are struggling to stay afloat

Please pray for us!

Heh!

I ain’t gonna lie

I ain’t been strong in a while

Heh!

I’m down and I’m deep deep down

And I ain’t go lie to nobody say me I be the strongest

‘Cos I know say I be the weakest right now

I wish that I could be stronger and I wish that I’ll be a man!

I wish that I could stand up and I wish that I could run!

I wish that I had moved when You called me, Lord!

The task You dey gimme too big. it de conf me no lie!

I… Don’t wanna be a hippo. Nah! I ain’t go dey lie!

I… I de here! I de search You! I de fight!

I… no go church in a long time!

I ain’t studied in a long time!

I ain’t prayed in a long time, Mi Raah!

I’m sitting in my dirt please hear my cry!

I…de kai the times I dey worship get so high!

I… know the things You want from me, Lord

But I got a thing to say, Lord!

I de beg You make You no bore

Some Christian actions just de conf me

I wish it ain’t true but I’m sorry

Christians caused it now I worry

Who could I trust in this war we’re

Fighting against the devil

He looks good but he’s so evil

He lurks inside the church now!

Who can I learn from, Lord!

Some Christian actions just de conf me

I wish it ain’t true but I’m sorry

Christians caused it now I worry

Who could I trust in this war we’re

Fighting against the devil

He looks good but he’s so evil

He lurks inside the church now!

Who can I learn from, Lord!

Christ. I’m struggling with a few things

And You know them. You see the chains!

I wish that You could feel my pain

But You did! You took all the weight

On The Cross, mehn, that was insane!

You Went through all that for my sin?

Thank You, Jesus!

Thank You, Jesus!

Thank You, Jesus!

Thank You, Jesus!

I can never thank You enough, Lord

Even though, I still go through pain

I know You got my back

Thank You for washing my sins away

Bless You!
