Preacher's Daughter (feat. Tarsha McMillian)

She had a habit that she couldn't really stop

Needed money so she had to hit the block

Nobody knew it soShe steady had to play a role

Went to church

But surely tearin' up her soul

She'd repent sometimesThen she'd press rewind

Started over messin' up her life

Couldn't cope so she had to hit a knee slow

Started prayin' to the LordShe was a preacher's daughter

Sendin' herself the tears

Sendin' herself the tearsA preacher's daughter

So she had common sense

It's ashamed the way her life went

He's too busy thoughSteady savin souls

To realize he lost one of his own

Full of pain and stuck out in the dark

I even heard her father made his markNow she's confused

Now she's about to lose everything

She thought she ever ownedPreacher's daughter

Sendin' herself the tears

Sendin' herself the tears(It's a cryin' shame, oh)

It's a shame she couldn't make a way out

Now I'm sittin' here twiddlin' my thumbs

'Cause her life is gone and her kids are gone

And she lost everything and see her own fatherWas a preacher but he couldn't pray for her

'Cause he was too busy prayin' for everybody else

And layin' hands on all the women in the congregation

But I guess that's what goes onWhen you walk right and perfect

And your whole house seems to be perfect

And behind closed doors everybody suffers from some kind of demon

But nobody knows it until it all unvails itselfYour own daughter is out there

Locked out in the dark

She was a preacher's daughterHelp me, Lord, help me, Lord

Help me, Lord, I need You right now

I need you daddy

Could you hear me prayin'

Don't you hear me prayin'

(She's somebody's daughter)I need you, say I need you

I don't know what to do

I'm dyin' inside

(She's somebody's baby)

I can't stop the tears from fallin'

I need you, I need you, I need you, daddy

Oh, I need you
