Please Don't Kill Yourself Lyrics - Clayton Jennings

Please don't kill yourself 

I'm talking to you 

And i don't pretend to know everything that you've been through 

But if it's shame you feel, just know that i've sinned too 

And if it's pain you're feeling, 

Just know that that's something i went through 

I don't know your story but i know you and me are a lot alike 

So let me talk to you for a minute, while i've got this mic 

I was 18 when i pulled a gun out 

At the time it felt like my options had run out 

So i put that barrel to my chest and i pulled the trigger halfway 

I tried to muster up the courage to put myself away that day 

But halfway with that trigger pulled, i stopped 

Tears flooded my eyes and that pistol dropped 

And i sat in my room and i sobbed for an hour 

On the outside i was fine on the inside a coward

The noise of my depression had gotten louder and louder 

I had planned a way out on a baptism shower of gunpowder 

I've been lied to just like you're being lied to now 

Other people can't help you but i might know how 

Because i've walked in your shoes and i've been at my lowest 

And if you don't know anything, know this 

You might tell me you're gonna kill yourself and you're close to this 

But God wants to meet you in the middle of your hopelessness 

God wants to give you a way out of these feelings of doubt 

And the sounds of chaos might be 

Reverberating around you like heavy metal 

But confusion isn't from God it's straight from the devil 

And he wants to silence the noise and bring peace to you 

And i promise if you just ask him he'll see you through 

You got to this place because you tried fighting your own fight 

And where did that get you? 

Except contemplating about taking your own life

And if you got bullied to this point 

I'm sorry you went through that 

But God wants to take those words 

From your attackers and send them back 

You don't have to be defined by what people said about you 

Let me pick you up if you don't know how to 

You're not alone, man you've got a friend in me 

You got better days ahead of you, i just pray you begin to see 

Know that everything the devil did to you he wants you to replay 

But everything the devil took from you God wants to replace 

Listen to me right now, you better look me right in the face 

You were created for more than to die in this place 

Don't do it man, please don't take your life 

Just take my hand we'll make this right 

I promise if you do this you'll regret it 

You wake up in eternity remember, i said it 

And you wished so bad you could just go back 

I'm here for you right now, please just know that 

And if you think you're alone in this fight, you've been lied to 

That depression came after me and i nearly died too 

I thought suicide was the only way and death was meant for me 

The devil played his music and i sat front row through that symphony 

I walked through the fire and i felt that heat but i pushed past 

The (?) and i stood to my feet 

I walked out and i refuse to look back 

I took my depression and threw it right back, into that wood stack 

And that fire must have blazed 50 feet high 

And now i plan on leaving a legacy to look back on some day when i die 

And right now i'm telling you to 

Stand up too, deep down inside you know 

It's the right thing to do 

Think about your family, think about you 

Don't kill yourself, please don't do it 

Whatever you're facing God will see you through it 

I had a fan kill himself and his mum asked if i could come see her 

She was depressed and asked if i could meet her 

Two weeks later depression beat her, 

She ran into a telephone pole without a seat belt in a two seater 

And i wish right now i could crawl through these speakers 

And somehow convince you not to go the same route she did 

I wish i could change the fact that you feel defeated 

I wish i could lock my arms around you and tell the devil to beat it 

But i can't reach everyone even though i do my best to try 

Some people believe the lie that it's just best to die 

And they think it's the simple way out 

But they're not here to see the way things play out 

They don't see the hurt they caused, the pain they leave 

I take this seriously this isn't a game to me 

Even thinking about ending your life is living dangerously 

So please just listen to my voice, right now you have a choice 

You can choose life or you can get drowned by the noise 

Please don't do it, please ask for help 

If not for your family, do it for yourself
