Give Me An Answer Lyrics by Justin Terrell

Life In The Spotlight: The Casting Call

2013

[Intro]
Just give me an answer
I just pray that i get casted
Drop it
Yall don't even understand man
Took a lot to get here, Go
Shoutout to Schoolboy Q
Need Him in my life put him in my life
Need Him in my life
Need Him in my life put him in my life
Need Him in my life
[Verse 1]
How do you work? Please explain
I turn my back against your will
And then you heal my pain
Still I stray and still you stay and still I pray
You bless me, then I skate
Then it's back to the same old thing
Get me out this place before it's too late
Been through so much in these eighteen years
They tell me it's just the beginning
Of the hurt, the tears, the trials, and all of the sinning
Lord you're my witness, help me depict this vision
That I've been sentenced to live
And help me to change the things that keep me away
I promise I'm willing to listen, this is me venting
This is me, not asking for friends, not asking for wealth
Not following trends, just meeting the ends
So I can begin to live for myself
And understand the things that my life just can't clutch
Like you and your ways, or am I asking for too much
[Hook]
Just give me an answer
Please
Just give me and answer
Please
[Verse 2]
Mama Pearl I know you're happy, finally at rest
Backbone of the family
Always tried your best to help someone that needed it
Even when they asked to frequently
They couldn't see that then you were God's gift to them
And repeatedly though it was limited
You gave your time, wrote those checks
And I know in my mind that you don't regret it
Now I listen to my voicemail and hear all your messages
Saying "call me back" and I do, but you ain't answerin
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
From my heart, to my pad, through my pen, to your ears
Thinking back on the years when my pen was my only friend
And the loneliness had me in tears
Soaking tissues feeling like I wasn't worth a nickel
Dealing with all these freaking issues
Not knowing what I had stored between my temples
I had statements to be quoted, points to be made
They hate me cuz' they know that
Imma be the one to bring their city fame
Imma be the one to make it in the end
Imma be the one to change the nation
Then Imma be the one to motivate the men
And that's nothing but the truth, Amen
The only question is when
Just give me an answer
When?
Just give me an answer
[Outro]
Your message from Mama Pearl
Sent Monday September 6 2010 at 11:19 AM Eastern Time
Hi JT, How are you doing?
Havn't heard from you or seen you and squeak in the last couple of weeks
Just checking on you to see how you're doing sweetheart
I'll be home tomorrow, Love You, Mama Pearl, Bye
