Acclaimed Christian Hip Hop icon Lecrae features the one and only John Legend in the single Drown – His third off anticipated album RESTORATION.
I’m excited for you to hear ‘Drown’ with my brother, John Legend. We labored on this one. Even after the initial session we jumped on FaceTime to tweak it. The man is as equally talented as he is humble. His gift and passion bleed thru this song.
—Lecrae

Lecrae is also releasing a documentary also called Restoration and his second book, I Am Restored: How I Lost My Religion, But Found My Faith, a follow-up to his New York Times best-seller, Unashamed.

“Sometimes we can get so frustrated by the news and what’s going on and there’s this battle going on in ourselves. Do we become apathetic? Do we become engaged? Do we just talk about it, or do we do something?” -John Legend
Beyond sitting, waiting, hoping and praying the one thing we can actually do to be better as humans is to find love where there is pain. Legend couldn’t have made this any clearer.
Every day I wake and, Everything is broken, Turning off my phone just to get out of bed. Get home every evening, And history’s repeating, Turning off my phone cuz its hurting my chest.
And heaven knows I’m not helpless, But what can I do? I can’t see the use in me crying If I’m not even trying to make the change I wanna see
I can’t sit and hope, I Can’t just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain
Falling to my knees Though I do believe Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can’t just preach, baby, preach
All I hear is voices, Everybody’s talking, Nothing real is happening, cause nothing is new. Now when all is tragic, And I just feel sedated, Why do I feel numb, Is that all I can do?
And heaven knows I’m not helpless, yeah But I’m only human. Can’t see the use in me crying, If I’m not even trying to make the change I want to see.
I can’t sit and hope, I Can’t just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain
Falling to my knees Though I do believe Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can’t just preach, baby, preach
And heaven knows I’m not helpless, What can I do? Can’t see the use in me crying If I’m not even trying to make the change I wanna see
I can’t sit and hope, I Can’t just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain
Falling to my knees Though I do believe Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can’t just preach, baby, preach
Falling to my knees And though I do believe I can’t just preach, baby, preach.
