I Need You More Than Ever

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Theory Hazit] His daughter pulling on his sweater With tears in her eyes like we need you more than ever Daddy don't go, things'll get better Written on her face man, we need you more than ever Please don't leave, we should stay together At least be strong for me, I need you more than ever Let God be your sunshine through this rough weather 'Cause you my umbrella and I need you more than ever Oh, so you regret that you met her? Well, you had me and I need you more than ever We got a bond that ties you can't sever Tearing us apart Pop, we need you more than ever Divorce you got to admit, man it's not that clever At a time like this when I need you more than ever Bail on us now? I'm hoping you would never Fight the good fight 'cause we need you more than ever Man, feeling like a cold night even when it's daylight Wishing we could stay tight You know this ain't right Abandoning your role like you had stage fright Lord knows we need you more than ever Calls on the weekends, visits in the summer time Miscommunication, back and forward with you and mom I ain't ready for that! I want you to decide and stay by my side 'Cause we need you more than (more than) [Hook: Donavan Luke] Don't go, don't go. I need you now more than ever I need you now [?] weather [?] You be the one to show me right from wrong, yeah! Work it out, work it out for me Let Jesus be the guide and he'll show you how to Work it out, work it out for me I still need You to be here [Verse 2: Theory Hazit] Daddy looks into her pretty eyes Her cry out is being minimized He goes to open up his mouth To say something but not a word comes out Rubs her back saying "It'll be alright You'll forget about it once we get to Chuck E. Cheese tonight Besides don't you want your mom and me to be Happy as we can be without us being mean? Yeah I know, but daddy loves you baby I'm still around I mean, I'll come to see you daily" He wipes her face, planted a kiss If she can read his mind, it goes something like this: I'm unhappy, I've been faking the whole time Feeling like I'm stuck cause me and her [made this soul tie?] Plus we have nothing in common I wanna feel love again, I'm sick of the drama Husband? How come I feel less than That we supposed to be closer than close, best friends This is too much work but yo This is what our pastor told us before church ago Of course the Lord has y'all together for a reason Not to be happy but to be more like Jesus As long as we're alive, we going to feel the pressure And you can't do it alone, y'all need the Lord more than ever [Hook: Donavan Luke] Don't go, don't go. I need you now more than ever I need you now [?] weather [?] You be the one to show me right from wrong, yeah! Work it out, work it out for me Let Jesus be the guide and he'll show you how to Work it out, work it out for me I still need You to be here [Verse 3: Propaganda] One part of me hates you, the other part of me is jealous A small part of me thanks you Your negligence has given me a reason to breathe I'm a step-father raising a worthless man's daughter And if you've ever seen her smile, you wouldn't question why I bother It is my cross to bear Imma come off the bench dad JV second-string substitute step-dad Listen I understand some things just don't work out Her mom can be a handful, believe me I know But that's not your daughter's fault Oh, we got them gifts you brought But she would trade it all for a half hour of your time See me and her have bonded now, it's been years She calls me daddy now You don't know how long I've yearned to hear words you aren't worthy of She sees you as a stranger She is scared of your touch Yet her lil' brain is so conflicted Because she misses you and don't know why It's crazy, sometimes I see my sister's personality in her I'm so tempted to say she gets her eyes and sense of humor from me I know that's delusional but I'm so afraid of losing her Falling into that U-shaped black hole in her six year old soul And it cuts my tongue to admit it but she needs you more than ever That's how much I love her I am willing to admit that she does need you I believe my little girl Her very breath is a blessing From doing her laundry to trying and explain sovereignty I would love her as my own Be the father God called me to be, it honestly compels me My dude she needs you (more than ever) [Hook: Donavan Luke] Don't go, don't go. I need you now more than ever I need you now [?] weather [?] You be the one to show me right from wrong, yeah! Work it out, work it out for me Let Jesus be the guide and he'll show you how to Work it out, work it out for me I still need You to be here
