Verse 1: Lavell Jones]
The ongoing process of one finding one's identity
The searching, the path for, what’s, the remedy
The hurt, the pain, that causes the injuries
You miss the good days, just remembering
Remembering when we were so secure then
When the world didn’t feel just like a whirlwind
Now it seem like the world just keeps on turnin’, and turnin’, it won’t end, stop
Easy to say it’ll turn out for the better, or easy to say that you’re down for whatever
But when you’re searching for the truth and searching in your youth
When you are finding, you
Or you are finding love, or you are finding trust, or all of the above
All the things we think of or all the things we dream of
Before imaginations seem to be taken from us, before you lose your faith in life Before you lose your faith in Christ, before you, try to end it all tonight
You can’t tell me that ain’t right, but hey its life
[Hook: Christian Charles]
Been asked, what am I searching for, what have I found
One heart, one love, one sound
The weight of the world on my shoulders
Too many pounds, weighing me down.
[Verse 2: Lavell Jones]
And down I’ve been going into a deeper abyss
And down I’ve been going when I was searching for this
And you searched, and you wished, and you shot, but you missed
Missing on the bigger picture, searching what you found was liquor
So you popped and sipped it quicker
And then you fell over and just laid on your sofa, and lost your composure
Mad at the world, mad at your girl, mad at your life, you wanted a wife
And now you can’t decide, or find where hope resides, your dreams were denied, you hurt your pride,
Hurt pride is devastating, you were searching and debating, lost in thought contemplating,
You were praying and awaiting, and awaiting, and awaiting, but nothing’s changing
[Outro: Lavell Jones]
You were once wild, don’t let them tame you
Searching for the one thing that’ll save you
Praying to God hope it don’t change you, change you, change you
It was all good, and now it’s all bad, tryna’ make it right you got a long path
Losing control, off track, you’re not alone, we all have… been Searching.
