Lee Givhan - Listen to My Whisper (feat. Nosila) Lyrics

Listen to my whisper as you pull in close
Let it warm your shiver
You're what I love most

Don't wanna talk to you. I always know what you'll say
Did you decide to go to college today?
And if the answer's yes but online
I'm thinking you'd be happy and figure you won't mind
WRONG
Not good enough, never been good enough
That's how I feel
But I know you want what's best and stuff
Feels like you're looking down on me
No matter what I do I always feel your frown on me
I try to measure up, never enough, count on it
Your words echo in my head
No, they pound on it
When you said that you expected better from me
I wish you just said you thought I'd make more money
Then the hurt wouldn't be so bad
You make it sound like my worth isn't good enough, dad
Don't mix up net worth and self worth, there's a big difference
I'm glad that my Heavenly Father gets specific

Listen to my whisper as you pull in close
Let it warm your shiver
You're what I love most

You're trying, you're trying, you're trying, you're trying
You're trying your best and I can assess
In your childhood, you got even less of dad being impressed
Used to always drive me to my friends
Take me out to the movies in a beat up Benz
Or get the bootleg VHS, come to b-ball games
Let yourself get beat at chess
Come up short when we do out best
But I know a God who can clean our mess

Listen to my whisper as you pull in close
Let it warm your shiver
You're what I love most
Listen to my whisper as you pull in close
Let it warm your shiver
You're what I love most
You're what I love most
Listen to my whisper
