Preach Lyrics - John Legend

Every day I wake and 

Everything is broken 

Turning off my phone just to get out of bed 

Get home every evening 

And history's repeating 

Turning off my phone cuz it's hurting my chest 

And heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah 

But what can I do? 

I can't see the use in me crying 

If I'm not even trying to 

Make the change I wanna see 

I can't sit and hope, I 

Can't just sit and pray, that 

I can find a love, when 

All I see is pain

Falling to my knees 

And though I do believe 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

(Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

All I hear is voices 

Everybody's talking 

Nothing real is happening, 

'Cause nothing is new 

Now when all is tragic 

And I just feel sedated 

Why do I feel numb? 

Is that all I can do? 

Yeah

And heaven knows 

I'm not helpless, yeah 

But I'm only human 

I can't see the use in me crying 

If I'm not even trying to 

Make the change I wanna see 

I can't sit and hope, I 

Can't just sit and pray, that 

I can find a love, when 

All I see is pain 

I'm falling to my knees 

And though I do believe 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

(Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

And heaven knows I'm not helpless 

But what can I do? 

Can't see the use in me crying 

If I'm not even trying to 

Make the change I wanna see 

I can't sit and hope, I 

Can't just sit and pray, that 

I can find a love, when 

All I see is pain 

I try to do the things, I 

Say that I believe 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

(Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

(Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) 

I can't just preach, baby, preach 

Falling to my knees 

And though I do believe 

I can't just preach, baby, preach
