Wanna Be Happy? - Kirk Franklin

The truth can hurt you

Or the truth can change you

What would truth do to you

I just wanna be happy

But if I keep on doing the things

That keep on bringing me pain

There's no one else I can blame

If I'm not happy

Wasted time but now I can see

The biggest enemy is with me

So I'm not happy

Cry yourself to sleep

Shout and raise your hands

It won't change a thing child

Until you understand

If you're tired of being the same

If you're tired of things not changing

It's time for you to get out the way

Don't get stuck in how you feel

Say Jesus take the wheel

He knows the road that you need to take

But it only works if

If you wanna be happy

Look at yourself and say

Don't you wanna be happy

I just wanna be happy

But if I keep on giving my heart

For people to tear apart

The healing will never start

So I can be happy

Will I ever be happy

Cry yourself to sleep

Shout and raise your hands

It won't change a thing child

Until you understand if I'm talking to you can say

If you're tired of being the same

If you're tired of things not changing

It's time for you to get out the way you been there too long

Don't get stuck in how you feel

Say Jesus take the wheel

He knows the road that you need to take I feel this one right here

It's so easy to complain

Addicted to the pain

You give you heart they push it away but I got good news for ya

Jesus knows just how you feel

Just let him take the wheel

The love you need he already gave but the question is

Do you wanna be happy if you're tired of you then say
