Listen to John Legend’ “Preach” everywhere: smarturl.it/JLPreach “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 Amazon: smarturl.it/JLPreach/az Apple Music: smarturl.it/JLPreach/applemusic iTunes: smarturl.it/JLPreach/itunes Spotify: smarturl.it/JLPreach/spotify Directed by: Dominique DeLeon Produced by: Kelsey Gilchrist and Angel Rosa Cinematography by: Sing Howe Yam and Todd Bahnzahl Edited by: Ernie Gilbert Color by: Nick Metcalf at the Mill An AJR Films Production Follow John Legend: Instagram: instagram.com/johnlegend Facebook: facebook.com/johnlegend Twitter: twitter.com/johnlegend Lyrics: 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. #CantJustPreach
