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. Teach me to sta
