[Verse 1:]
I would go on throughout my day,
thought I was okay,
but I really didn't have commitment.
I was prestige in many eyes,
they didn't see me cry,
I really could hide my torment.
Though it seemed I was fine,
it continued all the time,
I'm only human and the pressure is getting to me.
[Chorus 1:]
I just can't take it no more,
my strength has walked out the door
and it left me and told me I can't go no more.
I just can't take it no more,
just want to lay down and die,
God, if You hear me, come near me,
You're my only hope.
[Verse 2:]
I wish I had another chance,
I would fervently seek Your hand,
I would've survived the avalanche.
I didn't see the road to take,
so I gave my life away,
and there's no way I can pray from a grave.
Though it seemed I was fine,
it continued all the time,
I'm only human and the pressure is getting to me.
[Chorus 1]
[Bridge:]
Listen to me, You can do all things
if you turn to God, One who made you...
[Chorus 2:]
You've got to take a little more,
your strength has walked out the door,
and it left you and told you it can't go no more.
You've got to take a little more,
might want to lay down and die,
just know God hears you, He's near you,
He's your only hope.
