In the morning joy will come
And all the fear I had is gone
There is a breaking in the shadows of my mind
The sun has come
Late nights, thoughts in my home
Folks ain't treating me right and the fam treating me wrong
So I pick up the music and I put down the phone
Do not disturb, I'm doing good on my own
I'm alone, me and my thoughts, steady fighting for space
I atone, paying the price, might as well eat the whole plate
In a zone, by myself, please don't get in the way
I'm on a throne with guilt and regret while deciding my fate
In the morning joy will come, yeah, that's what they say
But I'm drowning in the dark, I'm getting tossed by the waves
All the voices in my head, steady replaying mistakes
Y'all lost my mind, no steps to retrace
Man, God, can you hear me? I ain't heard you speak
Maybe I should call my pops, but I did that last week
I'm done playing this sick game of hide-and-seek
Guess I'll wait for the sun, while death waits on me
In the morning joy will come
And all the fear I had is gone
There is a breaking in the shadows of my mind
The sun has come
Uh, life getting heavy, pull myself up by my bootstraps
Devil is a thief, I hear him creeping, know that he snatched
Half my life from me, metaphorically, I have relapsed
Replaying the hurt in my head, it's like a backtrack
But I know this race gotta end soon, ready for the next heat
Tired of looking at the moon, tired of dealing with my thoughts
Show me the sun, you said it (has come)
But I can't feel it though, this pain is residual
I push aside the ones I love, the ones who will hold me close
Wicked scenarios, causing me pain in my brain
It's insane, but I'm trying to remember your name
J-E-S-U-S, I know you know what it feels like
Disciples all asleep while you sweat blood through the night
Died for me upon the cross, I'm still looking for the light
And then I look inside myself and see your light shining so bright
In the morning joy will come
And all the fear I had is gone
There is a breaking in the shadows of my mind
The sun has come
Searching for the answers, God, where does it end
I tried to follow, but your prints got lost in the wind
I wanna say that you lied, I ain't trying to offend
But you know the depths of my heart, ain't no need to pretend
It's just how I feel, I'm being real, Lord, I'm having my doubts
Choosing pills for my next meal, trying to create my own route
I feel like Will, your Uncle Phil, realizing you're my way out
Peace be still, I look to the hills and see your face in the clouds
In the morning joy will come, yeah, that's what they say
But I can attest to this, I tested this, don't mean to be cliche
Trust me, I know how you're feeling, but the sun's on the way
Feeling lost in the dark, but I was just stuck in the shade
Feeling trapped by my sins, but his grace set me free
Feeling I would die in the valley, but I read Psalms 23
I was steady looking out west, but he rose in the east
I was in the night, but then He gave His only son for me
In the morning joy will come
And all the fear I had is gone
There is a breaking in the shadows of my mind
The sun
