Lyrics of Mercy by Jacob Banks
verse
Followed your name into the wild, yeah, yeah
Showed my shame, I ran a mile
I sing your lullaby, your melodies, like a symphony
We burn the same inside a fire
chorus
I just need a little mercy, mercy on me
I just need a little mercy, mercy on me
I drank your holy water, your liberty, your make-believe
I just need a little mercy, oh mercy on me
verse
I played the game, I reconciled, well, well, well, well
I wear the blame like a suit and tie
I sing your lullaby, your melodies, like a symphony
We fall the same when we walk the wire
chorus
I just need a little mercy, mercy on me
I just need a little mercy, mercy on me
I drank your holy water, your liberty, your make-believe
I just need a little mercy, oh mercy on me
verse
I keep growing and
You keep tearing me down, oh
I keep growing and
You keep tearing me down, oh
chorus
I just need a little mercy, mercy on me
I just need a little mercy, mercy on me
I drank your holy water, your liberty, your make-believe
I just need a little mercy, oh mercy on me
Writer(s): Jonathan Percy Starker, Yonatan Ayal, Jacob Akintayo Akinoso, Pierre-luc Rioux
