Preach - John Legend

Lyrics by：Sarah Aarons/Greg Kurstin/John Stephens

Composed by：Sarah Aarons/Greg Kurstin/John Stephens

Everyday I wake and everything is broken

Turning off my phone just to get out of bed

Get home every evening and history's repeating

Turning off my phone 'cause it's hurting my chest

Hey hey

And Heaven knows I'm not helpless yeah

But what can I do

I can't see the use of me crying

If I'm not even tryna to make the change

I wanna see

I can't sit and hope

I can't just sit and pray that

I can find a love when all I see is pain

I'm falling to my knees

And though I do believe

I can't just preach baby preach

Wo oah oah oah oah oh oh oh

I can't just preach baby preach

All I hear is voices everybody's talking

Nothing real is happening 'cause nothing is new

Now in 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 of me crying

If I'm not even tryna to make the change

I wanna see

I can't sit and hope

I can't just sit and pray that

I can find a love when all I see is pain

I'm falling to my knees

And though I do believe

I can't just preach baby preach

Wo oah oah oah oah 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 of me crying

If I'm not even tryna to make the change

I wanna see

I can't sit and hope

I can't just sit and pray that

I can find a love when all I see is pain

I try to do the things that save it I believe

I do believe

I can't just preach baby preach

Wo oah oah oah oah oh oh oh

I can't just preach baby preach

Wo oah oah oah oah oh oh oh

I can't just preach baby preach

I'm falling to my knees

And though I do believe

I can't just preach baby preach
