I know I’m living wrong
I see it clearer every day
My hands are dirty, my steps are weak
But I still walk this way

I don’t excuse the things I’ve done
I don’t call darkness light
I just don’t have the strength right now
To turn my life around tonight

I feel the truth inside my chest
Like a weight I can’t outrun
I want to change, but not today
I’m not ready yet, God

God, give me a little more time
I’m not fixed, I’m not fine
I know I’m late, I know I’m blind
But please, give me a little more time

God, give me a little more time
I’m still lost, still out of line
I want to walk toward the light
Just not tonight

I keep postponing who I should be
Like tomorrow owes me grace
I know this road is killing me
But I’m scared to change my pace

I’ve tried to quit, I’ve tried to run
I always fall back in
I don’t love this life I live
But I don’t know how to end it

I’m not asking You to save me now
Or clean my soul tonight
Just don’t close the door on me
While I’m still learning how to fight

God, give me a little more time
I’m still breaking every sign
I know I’m wrong, I won’t deny
But please, give me a little more time

God, give me a little more time
Before I cross the final line
I swear I want to change my life
Just not tonight

I know time is not a promise
I know mercy’s not a deal
But I’m standing here, exposed
With nothing left but what I feel

If patience still exists somewhere
If You still hear my voice
Please remember I’m a man
Still learning how to choose

God, give me a little more time
I don’t ask for peace or signs
Just keep my heart alive
Until I’m ready to decide

God, give me a little more time
I don’t want to waste my life
I want to change — I truly do
I just need time
