Listen

I know that it seems sometimes, that no matter what you do

Or no matter how hard you work, striving to make things better in your life, but

For some reason, you're not getting nowhere

Well, I want you to turn to the one next to you

And tell him

You tried your way

It didn't work, no

You put Him second (Second, yeah)

And put you first (Oh, yeah)

You trusted friends

Thought they had your back

And every time you turn around

It seems you're under attack, yeah, yeah, yeah

But turn to your neighbor and say

(Neighbor) See the Devil is a liar

(Neighbor) No, I'm not gon' die

(Neighbor) It's okay to cry

(Neighbor) ‘Cause He's by your side

(Neighbor) You gotta stop that hating

(Neighbor) I know you don't wanna hear it

(Neighbor) Gotta fast and pray and listen

(Neighbor) To the Spirit, 'cause

(God's tryna tell you something)

He's speaking to your heart right now

(God's tryna tell you something)

Just listen to the Spirit, ohh

(God's tryna tell you something)

Hold up, (Shh)

(Listen)

Hmm, you lost your job (Hallelujah)

Your bills are due (Due)

And all the people you helped (All the ones you helped)

Did not want to help you

I talked to my mother (And she said, "Pray about it")

I talked to my pastor (And he said, "Pray about it")

But I was so blinded

I own my disaster

I wish you would just tell your neighbor

Tell him for me

(Neighbor) See the Devil is a liar

(Neighbor) No, you're not gon' die

(Neighbor) It's okay to cry

(Neighbor) ‘Cause He's by your side

(Neighbor) You gotta stop that hating

(Neighbor) I know you don't wanna hear it

(Neighbor) Gotta fast and pray and listen

(Neighbor) To the Spirit, oh

(God's tryna tell you something)

He's speaking to your heart right now

(God's tryna tell you something)

Just listen to the Spirit, oh

(God's tryna tell you something)

Hold up, (Shh)

(Listen)

Yeah, yeah, oh, oh

I did everything I could to take away my trouble

And everything I tried did not stop my struggle

Just doing me every day

Guess I was in my own way

But I'm here to tell you, without His grace I'm a major failure

So if you got problems (You got problems)

Know that you can fix it (You can fix it)

Just give it to Jesus, (Give it to Jesus)

Oh, can I get a witness?

And tell him say (Neighbor)

That the Devil is a liar (Neighbor)

You gotta listen to the Spirit (Oh, neighbor)

Whoa, God is

(God's tryna tell you something)

Shh, shh, shh

Yes He is, He's trying to get your attention right now

(God's tryna tell you something)

I know you got your own plan, but God's got a better one, oh

(God's tryna tell you something)

Shh, listen

Mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh

God's tryna tell you something

Tell me, can you hear it?

God's tryna tell you something

Listen to the Spirit

God's tryna tell you something

Shh, listen

Yeah

God's tryna tell you something

Tell me, can you hear it?

God's tryna tell you something

Listen to the Spirit (Yeah)

God's tryna tell you something

Shh, listen

You tried your way

It didn't work, no

You put Him second

And put you first...
