Lean On Me
DC Talk Lyrics

True MC, no slack on the track
We are true to our faith and convictions as we deliver our message through music

Here to tell the people that love's what we lack
Our society needs to cultivate love for one another, and this is our message to everyone

In this family we gotta love like Christ
As believers, we have been called to love others just as Christ loved us

So precise in your life so take this advice
We are preaching to be exact in your way of living, and here is our wise counsel

Brother to brother we need to learn to love each other
As brothers in faith, we need to learn how to genuinely love each other

So lean on me when you're in trouble
We are offering ourselves as a support system for anyone who needs help and guidance

I cast my cares on Christ 'cause He cares for me
We recognize that Christ is our ultimate source of comfort and care, and we encourage listeners to cast their burdens on Him

So when you need a shoulder to cry on, just lean
We are here not only to offer advice but also to empathize with those who are hurting

Lean on me, when you're not strong
When you feel weakened by life's challenges, we are here to lend our strength

And I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on
We are committing to being a loyal friend and supporter, helping others to persevere through their struggles

For it won't be long 'til
Getting through life's challenges is only a temporary hurdle

I'm gonna need somebody to lean on
Even we will need someone to rely on eventually

Sometimes in our lives
We all experience ups and downs in life

We all have pain, we all have sorrows
Pain and hardship are universal experiences

But, if we are wise
One way to deal with pain and sorrow is to be wise and remember that they are temporary

We know that there's always tomorrow
There is always hope for better days to come

Please, swallow your pride
We urge listeners to put aside their pride and ask for help if they need it

If I have things that you need to borrow
We are willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need

For, no one can fill those of your needs
If you don't open up to receive help, no one can address your needs

If you won't let them show
If you don't allow others to help and support you, they won't be able to do so

You just call on your brother when you need a hand
We encourage listeners to reach out to those around them to seek help and support

We all need somebody to lean on
As human beings, we all need help and support from others

I just might have some problems that you'd understand
We are admitting that, as human beings, we also have struggles that we need help with

Make it funky, make it funky
Let's add excitement and energy to this message

Cause I'm housin' this joint
I'm in charge, and I'm bringing the house down with this message

Like a brother with an attitude
I have the guts and the passion to deliver this message with authority

And comin' straight so you best give me latitude
We are demanding space to express ourselves passionately

Leanin' on my boys from the word get go
We have been relying on a support system from the beginning, and we urge others to do the same

And bein' there for them cause the Lord said so
We are obligated to be there for our brothers and sisters because the Lord commanded it

Many of us just don't know what to do
We understand that many people are lost and need guidance

Well take it here and now from the boy named true
We are the True MC, and we are here to offer guidance and support immediately

Don't dog a brother out when he stumbles and falls
We should not criticize each other when someone makes a mistake or fails

Just be there to lean on y'all
We should always be ready to support each other and lift each other up

Call me, call me, just call me,
We are urging anyone who needs help to reach out to us

Don't you know that I'll be there, you can lean on me
We are reminding listeners that we are a reliable source of support
