Heart Check Lyrics by Scott Simms

David

2018

[Verse 1: Rell Riley]
Yeah, I know I ain't perfect (Yeah, yeah)
The spotlight never gets behind the curtain (Yeah, yeah)
I'm just a sinner front and centered, undeserving (Yeah, yeah)
I'm only here because it fits into His purpose (Yeah, yeah)
Please don't get it twisted like it isn't Bluetooth
I be going through too
Prolly got a couple screws loose like a youth's too
I done had some blue sky days spent few blue
I done had nothing in my bank, had some shoes new
I done thought about some things, I can't talk about
Just had a lot on my plate like I'm a Waffle House
Life is full of difficulties lookin' for the exit
I be really contemplatin' if I'm walking out
Start the coffee pot, hit the studio and then I express it
Lemons into lemonade to my mess to a message
I be feeling less than, then turn that to a lesson
All I can say is that the grace of Heaven is why I'm inhalin'

[Pre-Chorus: Scott Simms & Rell Riley]
Even though I'm not a perfect man (Ayy!)
Just tryna get it right (I'm just tryna get it right)
And sometimes that I'ma get it wrong (Ayy!)
That's why I need You in my life (That's why I need You in my life)
(Yeah, yeah)

[Chorus: Scott Simms]
I need a heart check
A heart check yeah yeah
A heart check, a heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check
A heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check, a heart check yeah yeah

[Verse 2: Scott Simms]
What I gotta do to keep me honest
I need to try to make it so that I can keep a promise, got it
Even when I feel like I'm the hottest, gotta keep it modest
Even when I'm polished, I just need a heart check, a heart check yeah yeah
Is it farfetched that I want that yeah yeah?
I keep my part yeah try to guard it yeah yeah
Don't be far, even when I'm harmless yeah yeah
Ayy, and if you search it I'm guessing that You would test it
Have me look at you more than I look at Netflix
Yes it's somethin' that's perplexed
But it's easy when I confess it cause my problems are somethin' You eat for breakfast
Blessings, losses that I take can only teach me lessons
Tryna make it in I hope You read me, guest list
Came and died so you can set me free, debtless
Nothing greater than Your love for me, reckless

[Pre-Chorus: Scott Simms & Rell Riley]
Even though I'm not a perfect man (Ayy!)
Just tryna get it right (I'm just tryna get it right)
And sometimes that I'ma get it wrong (Ayy!)
That's why I need You in my life (That's why I need You in my life)
(Yeah, yeah)

[Chorus: Scott Simms]
I need a heart check
A heart check yeah yeah
A heart check, a heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check
A heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check, a heart check yeah yeah

[Outro: Rell Riley]
And you can tell I'm not a perfect man, I won't always get it right
Sometimes I'ma get it wrong, that's why I need You in my life
Yeah, yeah
I need a heart check
A heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check
A heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check, a heart check yeah yeah
I need a heart check, a heart check
