My Story
by Marvin Winans

Album: Alone But Not Alone

I'm just trying to tell my story, not for fame or vainglory
Just trying to let you know what I've been through

Not seeking worldly treasures, to bust a rhyme or just be clever
Just thought I'd let you know what I've been through

Brought my twin brother along to help me write this song
So now we'll let you know what we've been through

Even though you know the way
All your life you've heard them say
"Boy, don't ever turn away from what is right"

"Search and listen for the kind of life
Where you just don't want to fight
So you exercise your right to let it go"

I'm in a mess, I need a way out
Can you help me find the peace of mind I used to have?

I'm just a wreck, life like a plan crash
There seems to be a piece of my mind everywhere

Feeling lawless on a funk
Got paid and took a walk
To a land I'd never thought I'd ever be

Now I've seen the promised fence
Taking in the smack-n-pence
For the lack of common sense
Oh hear my plea

I'm in a mess, give me a way out
Can you help me find the peace of mind I used to have?

I've never been this way before
Had no idea what was in store
At a place that I can't take no more
Please come see about me

And I know
Times is going to let it go
And You're the only help I know
Help me

I'm in a mess, I need a way out
Can you help me find the peace of mind I used to have?
I'm just a wreck, life like a plane crash
There seems to be a piece of my mind everywhere

So I walk this lonely road, back home's where I gotta go
If I can make it there I know that all is right

Uncertain how I'll be received
But a servant's job is enough for me
Bottom line I've gotta be
But I am free

Here comes my help
Here comes my way out
And now I'll find the peace of mind I knew before

He is my help
He is my way out
Oh happy day, I'm here to stay here forevermore

I've got my help
I've got my my way out

He is my help
He is my way out
(repeat)
