"If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects'll keep coming
But uh
You ain't sick
You ain't dying
You ain't this
You just ain't trying
You ain't sick
You ain't dying
You ain't this
You just ain't trying
I bet you got a slob sob story don't you
Telling everybody bout it cuz you'll think they'll want you
Pushing them away so you can say they disappoint you
Thinking that a life of pain will somehow anoint you
What you doing, huh
Do you enjoy this
Would you avoid this
When you stop replacing your voice with these noises
The choices you make they moisten
Making it joyous pressing your buttons like joysticks
Tell me
Why you think these dreams worth dreaming, ay
Why you think these schemеs worth scheming
If it can't defeat your dеmons
Why you think these streams worth streaming, ay
Why you think these screams heard screaming
In your shout it out costume
Trying to be listened to
But silence speaks volumes
Try to be a witness to
The piece of your peace cuz you're needed in this symphony
I'll always give you praise, but shall never give you sympathy
Because uh
If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects'll keep coming, cuz
If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects'll keep coming
But uh
You ain't sick
You ain't dying
You ain't this
You just ain't trying
You ain't sick (live)
You ain't dying (I say live)
You ain't this (unh)
You just ain't trying
How long you gone sit & sulk
You alive, get woke
You're supposed to nurse the cause
Not doctor the results
The thang is you associate pain with transformation
Claim yo emancipation patient proclamation, yeah
The mind controls the body
But you control your mind
So why let anybody, uh
Control you any time, yeah
And that's including yours
Of this manner you are lord, unh
Listening to what isn't
While the truth just gets ignored, yeah
Thinking what a cruel God
Making people sick
But this yo only job
To show and represent
You can't truly believe in love when you embody sin
Cuz sin means without life, not what you think it meant
Lay down your judgment swords
Take off yo love block armor
And realize what's yours
As we rise in your honor
As we rise like we in heaven
No truth a lie can threaten
Unless you believe the lie
And say you learned the less-in
If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects'll keep coming, cuz
If I healed you in the way you wanted
The cause would remain
So the effects'll keep coming
But uh
You ain't sick
You ain't dying
You ain't this
You just ain't trying
You ain't sick (live)
You ain't dying (I say live)
You ain't this (unh)
You just ain't trying
Rise
You are well"
