Sermon (Feat. Shotty Horroh) - James Arthur
You don't have to say
you're sorry
Or redeem yourself to me
I'm not asking for confessions
You don't even have to speak no
I need you to feel
that you're more than enough
I already know
you're deserving of love
There's not a question
that you are the one
that I need
These are my words
this is my voice
that is my sermon
Give me your heart
give me your pain
give me your burden
'Cause I can take anything
that you can give
Forgiving everything
that you did
These are my words
this is my voice
that is my sermon
My sermon my sermon
my sermon my sermon
Oh time to turn this wine
to water yeah
Time to turn this gold to lead oh
Time to stop taking this for granted
Oh gotta keep my family fed Oh I
I need you to feel
that you're more than enough
I already know
you're deserving of love
There's not a question
that you are the one I need
These are my words
this is my voice
that is my sermon
Give me your heart
give me your pain
give me your burden
'Cause I can take anything
that you can give
Forgiving everything
that you did
These are my words
this is my voice
that is my sermon
My sermon my sermon
my sermon my sermon
I don't know nothing
about the services
the clergy do in the churches
I never read the book
though I knew
the pages were turning
I tried to sing the hymns
but I couldn't think of the verses
Tried to confess my sins
but I didn't know how to word it
But this is my sermon
Firstly I'm emotionally drained
Self-medicating hoping
I can cope with the pain
I need a face
'cause that will fix
whatever's broke
in my brain
Who am I kidding no
I'm going insane
I wrote some quotes
on this page
Just tryna reach you
and I hoped you were late
Well I'll probably
just throw them away
'Cause I don't know what to say
I feel weak when
I'm supposed to be brave
I seem free
but I'm enclosed in a cage
Do I continue to ponder
over the past
thinking I ain't gonna
do any better
Do I whimper from the future
and buckle under the pressure
Or do I step to the plate
and go and take
the chance with my life
And go face to face
with the darkness
so I can stand in the light like
When I feel your love upon me
I know that I am truly blessed
Sometimes you gotta
face the darkness
to step into the light again
These are my words
my voice
that is my sermon
Give me your heart
give me your pain
give me your burden
'Cause I can take anything
that you can give
Forgiving everything that you did
These are my words
this is my voice
that is my sermon
My sermon my sermon
my sermon my sermon
My sermon my sermon
my sermon my sermon
That is my sermon
