Intro (spoken, filtered)
God…
I just wanna stay.
Hook (drop 1)
God, I just wanna be close to You
But my mind drift every time the sky turn blue
Every little thing keep pullin’ me loose
I scream “Help me stay,” but I still don’t choose
Ash on my hands, smoke in my view
Chasin’ comfort, knowing comfort ain’t true
World get loud, I lose my view
Still—God—I just wanna be close to You
Verse 1
How many times I gotta learn this pain?
Same old cycle, different flame
Wake up numb but my chest still strain
Run from peace like peace the chain
Grace on deck but I fight control
White-knuckle faith, death-grip soul
Dig my grave with a broken goal
Ask for healing, still love the hole
Blue sky days still trip my feet
Blessings come, I retreat
Your voice low, my pride on peak
“Child be still”—I don’t repeat
Pre-Chorus (build)
I wanna rise but I trip on me
Stand in light, still missin’ peace
Caught in between who You say I am
And who I been when I won’t let go
Hook (drop 2 – harder)
God, I just wanna be close to You
But I run every time You pull me through
Ash on my hands, smoke in my view
Still diggin’ graves You already moved
World stay loud, Your voice stay true
Even lost, You still come through
Still—God—I just wanna be close to You
Verse 2 (faster, more aggressive)
Heart bruised up, pride worn thin
Say I’m done, then I dive back in
Mercy chase me, I fake my limp
Say I trust, but I hedge my bets
Know Your name, still fear the rest
Talk surrender, clutch my chest
Run from love like it want my death
But love the only thing left
I roam when You say “rest”
Make my cage feel like success
Carry chains callin’ ’em steps
Pray for peace, still feed the stress
Bridge (drop out, raw)
But even here… You don’t let go
Reach through chaos I call home
Love still burn where shame once grew
You stayed when I said I was through
Final Hook (drop 3 – wide, open)
Teach me to stay, not chase the view
Make Your heart my only room
World scream lies, You speak truth
Even when I wander, You still move
Take this heart, it’s torn and used
Light the path I keep runnin’ through
God—
I just wanna be close to You
Outro (spoken, echo)
Not perfect.
Just present.
