(L. David Beat Tag)

Hook:
Rid me of these temptations

Clear your mind and be free

Yea
Rid me of these temptations
(Rid me of these temptations)
Clear my mind and be free
(Be free)

Verse 1:
I wonder if it hurts me more than it hurts you?
To watch you struggle and fight the things that you go through
How you deal with depression is leading to my aggression
The way you go out looking for earthly satisfaction
I know the Devil is guiding you in the wrong direction
Please listen, I'm screaming because you need correction
You called me and told me everything that is going on
I tell you Jesus is the one you be leaning on
You can't see my vision or find a way to listen
Life is like a game but you treat it like an exhibition
Now you're in a place that is hard to escape
I just hope I don't ever see you inside the yellow tape
So I'm praying for you everyday, hoping that you'll find a way
Back to the life you had before you went and turned away
From everything he did for you, he's always there to check on you
He always wants the best for you, and most of all he loves you
Hook:
Rid me of these temptations
(Rid me of these temptations)
Clear your mind and be free
(Be free)
Yea
Rid me of these temptations
(Rid me of these temptations)
Clear my mind and be free
(Be free)
Yea

Bridge:
(Rid me of these temptations, Clear my mind and be free)
(Rid me of these temptations, Clear my mind and be free)
(Rid me of these temptations, Clear my mind and be free)
(Rid me of these temptations, Clear my mind and be free)

Verse 2:
But I've been here too, I've got my temptations
Can't be a hypocrite, better make my own confession
I would say my greatest struggle is my jealousy
Can't stop dreaming 'bout the places that I wanna be
I find myself fantasizing 'bout some stupid mess
I know a clear mind would really help relieve my stress
Can't stop thinking 'bout it, I'm convinced it's what I need
The father's warning me this is just the Devil's greed
When you let it get inside, he will plant a seed
Then it starts to grow and off you it will only feed
Know I've let it get to a size that I can't control
I'm really starting to worry that it affects my soul
Through Insta I scroll, I'm digging the hole
I'm deeper than I've ever been, truly out of control
Through the Devil's temptation I can truly see evil
One day I'll get to heaven, it will truly be peaceful
Hook:
Rid me of these temptations
(Rid me of these temptations)
Clear your mind and be free
(Be free)
Yea
Rid me of these temptations
(Rid me of these temptations)
Clear my mind and be free
(Be free)
Yea
