[Intro: Lecrae]
Falling for your notions
Falling for emotions
Falling for your notions
Falling for emotions (Yeah)
[Verse 1: Lecrae]
Final hours, final hours, hope they my finest hours
Hope I gave 'em more time and wisdom than toys and flowers
Hope I invested in people more than I took from 'em
Hope I did more for my people than write some hooks for 'em
My first born gettin' older, can't be doin' too much
He not just listening, he watching, every movement is clutch
Look at photos of my daughter and get teary-eyed
I hope she know when she get older, Daddy really tried
My role models was felons, my Pops left without tellin'
Sometimes I feel like I'm failing, but God grades on a curve
Should be bunking with cellies, should be laid on the curb
But God be blessing my family, my Granny stood on The Word
Not explaining my views, it's just a song, not a sermon
You can ask me in person, but candidly, I'm still learning
Out the dirt where I got it, to the dirt I'm returning
I know these last days lurking, just keep me safe from the serpent
[Chorus: J Paul The Carpenter & Lecrae]
I may not please everyone
Forgive me for my flaws
Just know I gave my all, ooh
When it's all said and done
I hope I got it right
At least you know I tried, oh, I tried
Ain't nobody perfect, I try
Walking in my purpose
Gotta show you that I'm worth it
At least you know I tried, oh, I tried
Ain't nobody perfect, I try
Walking in my purpose
Gotta show you that I'm worth it
At least you know I tried, oh, I tried (Okay)
Falling for your notions
Falling for emotions
Falling for your notions
Falling for emotions (Yeah)
[Verse 1: Lecrae]
Final hours, final hours, hope they my finest hours
Hope I gave 'em more time and wisdom than toys and flowers
Hope I invested in people more than I took from 'em
