John Legend - Preach lyrics

Every day I wake and everything is broken
Turnin' off my phone just to get out of bed
Get home every evenin'
And history's repeatin'
Turnin' off my phone 'cause
It's hurtin' my chest hey

And Heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah
But what can I do?
I can't see the use in me cryin'
If I'm not even tryna make
The change I wanna see

I can't sit and hope
I can't just sit and pray that
I can find the love when all I see is pain
Fallin' to my knees, and though I do believe
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach

All I hear is voices, everybody's talkin'
Nothin' real is happenin' 'cause
Nothing is new now, when all this tragic
And I just feel sedated
Why do I feel numb? Is that
All I can do? yeah

And Heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah (Uh)
But I'm only human
I can't see the use in me cryin'
If I'm not even tryna make
The change I wanna see

I can't sit and hope
I can't just sit and pray that
I can find the love when all I see is pain
Fallin' to my knees, and though I do believe
(Though I do believe)
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach

And Heaven knows I'm not helpless
But what can I do? yeah
I can't see the use in me cryin'
If I'm not even tryna make
The change I wanna see

I can't sit and hope
I can't just sit and pray that
I can find the love when all I see is pain
I try to do the things I say that I believe
(I do believe)
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach

Fallin' to my knees, and though I do believe
I can't just preach, baby, preach
