Journal Pages

Verse 1:
I got an excerpt
When my chest hurts
When the pain’s real
When I feel cursed
When I’m an object, I’m worn out
And when I can’t give, I’m pourn out
My songs are too sung, I feel like Sheol
My lips are too numb, I cannot kneel
My pen’s too dense
I am convinced that this despair is so real
And you don’t care, father
Abba abba father, if I’m an heir then what’s the problem
Why do I suffer, why do I gotta
What’s up with the monster that rests inside the ink and lays upon the pages
Use the line break as blankets, and each phrase is so contagious
What’s this all about, tell me what’s this pain about
Did I not confess my sins, did we not just work this out
I offer my words to you, my Lord, my journal, I’ll wait
So make me humble, don’t want to cause you trouble

Chorus (x2):
I don’t know what to say say say say say say
I got this pain pain pain pain pain pain pain pain
You said you know my way way way way way way
Write on these pages it will all be okay

Verse 2:
I got an excerpt
When my heart heals
When I feel no pain
When my faith builds
When I’m a vessel, I don’t wear out
And when I give, I pour out
My songs are praises, I feel like haven
My limbs are too strong, I feel like praying
My pen’s a quill
I am convinced that his presence is so real
And you do care, father
Abba abba father, if I’m an heir I have no problem
And when I suffer, I know I gotta, no monster I fear
I know you hear me, I know you’re near me
You gave your life up on that cross you love me and you sealed me
Now what’s this all about, tell me what’s this all about
Washed away all of my sins, so you already worked that out
I offer my life to you, my Lord, my journal, you proved the wait
And I am humbled, I’ll never cause you trouble

Pre Chorus:
I don’t know what to say say say say say say
I got this pain pain pain pain pain pain pain pain
You said you know my way way way way way way
Write on these pages it will all be okay
I don’t know what they say say say say say say
I got this pain pain pain pain pain, man
You said you know my way way way way way way
Write on these pages and it will all be okay

Chorus:
I don’t know what to say say say say say say
I got this pain pain pain pain pain pain pain pain
You said you know my way way way way way way
Write on these pages it will all be okay

about

Chris Mack Muncie, Indiana

Here is where you can enjoy my extensive creative catalog. Some of this music is from earlier releases. Other songs are on leased beats. Because of copyright issues, some of these projects aren't available on paid streaming platforms, but I always want it to be available to my fans who have benefited greatly from these songs for free. Enjoy!
