Know What It’s Like lyrics

Legin [Verse 1]
-This is for you sis who’s parents just left/
I don’t know if it’s appropriate you hear this song yet, I know those wounds are fresh/
-Parent’s just up and left when come back home from school/
And now you knock on strangers doors looking for rest/
-That’s more than I can fathom in elementary, Tears stream as I write this/
But I write this to speak of life into what’s lifeless/
-I know what it’s like sis, the feeling of abandonment/
My father choose his drugs over his manliness, I'm still paying the damages/
-I do know what it’s like to adopted by my God/
And I know you’re in His image that’s something Satan cannot rob/
-And family gonna wrap their arms around you, probably sob/
And you’ll know people care about you, more than a job/
-So I’ll ask the team to let you know we’ve been praying from the States/
And I pray we get this house built so you’ll have somewhere that’s safe/
-Ive never been through what you’ve been through, something I will never feel/
But I do know a God Who can heal, and I know He will/

Focus [Hook 1]
-The burden is heavy/
Do you know what it's like/
-When you carrying pain/
Heard his burden was light/
-Do you know what it's like/
Does anybody hear me/
-I been asking for help/
I been burdened & weary/
-Do you know what's it's like yea/
Do you know what it's like yea /
-When your burden is heavy but his burden is light/
-Do you know what it's like/
When ya burdened & weary/
-Heard you carried the cross /
Will my burdens you carry/

Eshon Burgundy [Verse 2]
A circ*mstance I can't imagine/
For my children /
As I write this I can't help but get all in my feelings/
I thought my hood was bad /
I swore my hood crazy/
Crack baggies/
Baby daddies/
And aborted babies/
But as I contemplate the state of the/
Homeland/
I find myself crying real tears as a grown/
Man/
We can provide food and refuge/
For the low man/
I can hear God's Spirit saying get with the program/
Why do I come from the place that I come/
From/
Why I throw food away and there are people/
Without none/
I'm a Christian why are there days that/
I don't think/
About them/
And though it is God's command that/
The obligation I run from/
I be focused on my 401k/
My house/
My own happiness yeah my heart is all on/
Display/
God wanna provide for people/
But I'm all in the way/
Can't help the helpless/
With the selfish/
That refuse to obey/
Lets pray/

When ya burdened & weary/
