[Intro]
Helpless without your love
I am so helpless without your love
Helpless without your love
I know it’s been a minute
I am so helpless without your love
Let me, uh, let me tell you what’s been going on lately

[Verse 1]
Uh, n!gga, I’ve been stressing out, handing many blessings out
Burning bridges with no intentions to go and reconcile
My pops did a bid, but he’s studying to be a reverend now
I’m finna have my second child, although we still ain’t said our vows
Was never my intention to raise my daughter in separate homes
Gavе your mom my all, but the love she had for mе dead and gone
Although you ain’t a man if you can’t admit it when you was wrong
Can’t see it coming down my eyes, so do it through this song
Never would’ve thought as a kid that my life is this
Ten thousand square foot crib emptier than a b!tch
We made it through this internet matrix, though I’m the glitch
And lil’ bro did the dash, but they caught his ass with the switch
It seem like yesterday we would fight in my grandma yard
Playing 33 basketball, ain’t have s*it, but we had it all
And here I am, a grown-ass man chasing nostalgia
Years flying by in a flash, times is wilder, but

[Chorus]
If death is imminent and life is unfair
If this is Hell’s Kitchen and Heaven’s upstairs
I’m somewhere at the gate tryna find my key
Gotta get it together, so God, help me

[Interlude]
(Helpless without your love) My Lord
(I am so helpless) If You still listening
(Without your love) I could really use some help right now

[Verse 2]
Lord Jesus, please keep us from the evil
And forgive Your children of their wicked ways (From my wicked ways)
Consequences catching up with bad decisions
So I hit the gas quick and switch lanes (Skrrt, skrrt)
Now I done did the dash on the interstate
But can’t escape humiliation
See it on my face that I’m ashamed (I know)
Battling temptations, but I’m getting aggravated
From getting my ass handed to me every single day (Damn)
And this is dedicated to the pain and heartbreak
When the trust and the love turn to custody cases
When your day one start acting two-faced’ed
You run and you run, but can’t get away
So I showed up drunk to my baby’s birthday
Yeah, I know that I was late, but y’all ain’t save me no cake? (What?)
All the s*it that I done paid (What?)
All the sacrifice I made (What?)
Hell yeah, I been away, how you think this rent get paid?
S*it, I’m living in disarray, my company is misery
I’m on the edge of mental break, I hope that help is on the way
I hired a therapist and I fired my CPA
Then yesterday, my mother said my unc need his kidneys replaced
Damn

[Chorus]
If death is imminent and life is unfair
If this is Hell’s Kitchen and Heaven’s upstairs
I’m somewhere at the gate tryna find my key
Gotta get it together, so God, help me, that’s real

[Outro]
Helpless without your love
I am so helpless without your love
Helpless without your love
I am so helpless without your love
