Mercy (Live)

Mercy (Live) was recorded with a live band in the studio at REC Philly. Originally recorded for booking shows, but we loved how it came out and decided to release the song.
Mercy (Lyrics)
Lord have mercy
Don’t desert me
I’ve been out there
Steady working for you
You’ve been waiting
Hesitating
Things with us get complicated
It’s true
Wherever I lay my head
I can always seem to come to realize
Just how far I got to go
While you’re there
To help me know
What to do, do, do
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell stuff believing
You can’t say nothing is a matter of fact
And keep on keeping on
With the light getting dimmer before the dawn
Keep my head up when I’m all messed up and
I just keep waiting here for you
Lord have Mercy
Don’t you curse me
I know one thing
there are worse things I can do
I see the hate on every station
Your creation separated from you
From you
Every night I call your name
Even though I know you’re always here
Free me from the trip I’m on
Send your love so sweet and strong
Like you do, do, do
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell stuff believing
You can’t say nothing is a matter of fact
keep on keeping on
With the light getting dimmer before the dawn
Keep my head up when I’m all messed up and
I just keep waiting here for you
What else can I do?
I’ll reach out deep into the night
Try to meet you halfway if you like
Please forgive a damaged man his flaws
And if that’s ok in your subtle way I can tell
And there’s no one here but me
And so it’s my fault believing
You can’t say nothing is a matter of fact
And keep on keeping on
With the light getting dimmer before the dawn
Keep my head up when everything’s so messed up
I gotta keep moving along
‘Cause I really don't know what happens after
I love you
I mean it
So what can’t you see that
I am just waiting here for you
What else can I do?

Brilliant performance from you guys. And a very well thought out storyline that perfectly conveys one learning and bouncing back from their struggles.

[@MalachisMinistry]

Thank you, Kian. I appreciate your feedback as I can tell you listened closely to the song. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to checking out your content. When I was in high school I listened to mostly heavy metal and classic rock. I got into alternative music in college, then reggae and hip hop when I lived in Miami. I've always loved R'n'B, and as I got older, indie and now adult contemporary and Christian rock. If you listen to more of my songs, you'll hear a mix of those influences in my music.

[@Liz-y5o]
