Help Me
Cortt Chavis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know what it says, but look in my eyes
I need more than money
I am the single mother of three
I know how it looks, but please don't condemn me
I need you to reach me
Will you speak to me?
Be more by compassion for me?
Help me, I'm falling
Does anybody hear me calling now?
I'm calling out for help
I'm in too deep to save myself
For I,
Save myself for I need
Someone to help me
I'm the lawyer you met, in the coffee shop
I know I seem fine
But really I'm not
My life is crashing
I'm the city you drive through, on your way to work
Can't you hear me streets crying, full of pain and hurt?
Send me a preacher
Will you reach to me?
Please preach to me
There's not much time
Help me, I'm falling
Does anybody hear me calling now?
I'm calling out for help
I'm in too deep to save myself
For I,
Save myself for I need
Someone to help me
Will you pray for me?
Intercede for me?
Reach down to me?
Be Gods hand for me?
Preach it straight to me?
Show Gods word to me?
Fight hell for me?
Save our city streets?
We need a hero
Help me, I'm falling
Does anybody hear me calling now?
I'm calling out for help
I'm in too deep to save myself
For I,
Save myself for I need
Oh, oh, oh
Someone to help me
Help me, I'm falling
Does anybody hear me calling now?
Oh, oh, oh
I'm calling out for help, help!
I'm in too deep to save myself
For I,
Save myself for I need
Someone to help me
Someone to pray for me
Someone to reach for me
Help me, I'm falling
Does anybody hear me calling now?
I'm calling out for help
The lyrics of Cortt Chavis's "Help Me" express a powerful message of desperation and a call for help from various perspectives, including a homeless man, a single mother struggling to make ends meet, a successful lawyer who is masking inner turmoil and a city full of pain and hurt. The song is a plea for someone to reach out and extend compassion, hope, prayer, and guidance in times of dire need. The repetition of the phrase "Help me, I'm falling" expresses the vulnerability and sense of impending doom that many people might feel when in the depths of despair.
The verses also highlight the idea that life's struggles may not always be visible on the surface. We are reminded not to judge others based on their outward appearances or circumstances, as everyone is going through their own struggles. The lyrics urge the listener to open their heart to those in need and provide the support and encouragement necessary to keep going.
Ultimately, the song is a call to action to be a hero for others who are falling and need someone to help them get back up. It is a reminder that even the smallest gesture of love, kindness, or hope can make a significant difference in someone's life.
