You make it real for me

Mercy

(By Nathan Hawes)

But turn the lights down, on me

Lay my worries to sleep

As cold as this bed may be

I still find it hard

To leave

Ohh –oh-oh-oh

I’ve tried to let this go

Ohh – oh-oh-oh

This fire it burns out slow

I’ve made my mistakes and I owe my regrets

I got lost on the way but I’m doing my best

Have mercy, mercy on me

Cause I’m trying to be strong

Still learning and to be

My hand on my heart I am begging you please

So have mercy, mercy on me

When you’re cold I’ll lend my shirt

Cause you carry me through  the

Cause these wounds will heal I know they hurt

But I still hoping

Ohh-oh-oh-oh

I’ve tried to let this go

Ohh-oh-oh-oh

This fire burns out slow

I’ve made my mistakes and I owe my regrets

I got lost on the way but I’m doing my best

Have mercy, mercy on me

Cause I’m trying to be strong

To learn and to be

My head on my heart I am begging you please

So have mercy, mercy on me

I had to fall down to know how hard I was

I had to start again to see how far I’ve come

I had to fall down to know how hard I was

I had to start again to see how far I’ve come

I got lost on the way but I’m doing my best

Have mercy, mercy on me

I Believe I Can Fly

(By : R. Kelly)

I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms

If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day (Night and day)
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly hoo

See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, ho oh

If I can see it hoo, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Oh, I believe I can fly hoo

Hey, 'cause I believe in me, oh

If I can see it hoo, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it hey

I believe I can fly hoo
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
I believe I can fly (I can fly) hey

If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
I can fly, (I can fly) hey
If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
(I can fly)
(I can fly)
