“Restoration is coming! There is healing on this album, but you have to be willing to admit you’re broken in order to be healed,” expresses Lecrae about his 9th studio album, Restoration, set to drop August 21st on Reach Records.
The album features artists across all genres including John Legend, Kirk Franklin, YK Osiris, Jozzy, Dani Leigh, Marc E. Bassy, BJ The Chicago Kid and more.
In support of the release, Lecrae has dropped three singles: the first “Set Me Free,” features YK Osiris (produced by GAWVI), followed by “Deep End,” (produced by Anthony Gardner). A highlight of the album is the new single, “Drown” featuring John Legend (producers Danny Majic, DJ Frank E, and Ace Harris).
“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.

LYRICS
Tell me that you’ll never let me down
Down
‘Cause you’re my final breath before I drown
Drown
I’m drowning
I’m drowning
Lost in this world with these waves all around me
Deep in the darkness
Where it’s heartless
I don’t know if I can make it
I’ll be honest
And
I’m fading
I’m fading
Trapped and I feel like
It ain’t no escaping
Down to the bottom
All these problems got me drinking
Might drown in this bottle
All this drama got me thinking
If I had one call would you answer it?
Or would you take back all of your promises?
‘Cause I don’t know who to turn to
Or who to trust
I don’t know who to turn to
Or who to trust
So
Tell me that you’ll never let me down
Down
‘Cause you’re my final breath before I drown
Drown
You’re my last resort
When it’s too late
You’re the only one
Who takes my pain
Away
Away
So tell me that you’ll never let me down
Me down
Come save me
Come save me
Cause I’ve been in way over my head lately
Shame got me sinking
Gone off the deep end
Heart ache took my breath away
Now I’m barely breathing aye
I’m hoping
I’m hoping
‘Cause this the only thing that keeps me sober
I feel like I’m losing it
Like “What am I doing here?”
I need you to bail me out
I need you to pull me in
If I had one call would you answer it?
Or would you take back all of your promises?
‘Cause I don’t know who to turn to
Or who to trust
I don’t know who to turn to
Or who to trust
So tell me that you’ll never let me down
Down
‘Cause you’re my final breath before I drown
Drown
You’re my last resort
When it’s too late
You’re the only one
Who takes my pain
Away
Away
So tell me that you’ll never let me down
Me down
