Lyrics

As I watch the last leaf on this tree fly away I remember that the grass withers and the flower fades Time ticks and seasons change But the Word of God will stand even beyond the end of my days Every step that I've taken has been ordered But if I could be honest, there's some things I wish weren't on the menu I have to keep telling myself That everything is working for your good And it's not meant to offend you You might feel weak in this very moment But there's a strength and a treasure That's hidden deeper within you God has given you an assignment And a land of people to cultivate and tend to Though the last leaf has fallen A new leaf shall spring forth, as the growth continues Just got off the phone with my mama She told me that everything gon' be okay (Everything's gonna be okay son) That's when I told her that I'm trying to believe But it feels like I'm losing my faith (I've been trying my hardest mom, for real) That's when she told me think of all of the times that he came and he made a way That's when I told her in this moment it just feel like He don't hear me when I pray Devil talkin' in my ear, tellin' me to slit my wrist Got me questionin' my purpose, why do I exist? I try to write another song, I'm playin' hit or miss But in the midst of the struggle is when I wrote this So I'm pressin' on (Don't give up) Yeah, I'm pressin' on (Don't give in) Still pressin' on, (just hold on) Yeah, I'm pressin' on (see it through til the end) Ayy, my homie hit me for a pep talk Told me to take the time to press pause and breathe After that moment I got pissed off I'm sitting with my fist bump Tryna believe that God will supply on my needs Remember when dad cleaned the house and he found seven cents Back when the struggle was real They could barely pay the rent That's when he put them seven pennies in his wallet God turned it into dollars I get courage when I reminisce So I'm pressin' on (Don't give up) Yeah, I'm pressin' on (Don't give in) Still pressin' on, (just hold on) Yeah, I'm pressin' on (see it through til the end) So, I'm pressing on To see what the ends gon' be And I know that my God Still ain't through with me So I'm pressin' on Yeah, I'm pressin' on Still pressin' on Yeah, I'm pressin' on See it through til the end So I'm pressin' on Yeah, I'm pressin' on Still pressin' on Yeah, I'm pressin' on See it through til the end
