We all born to die like it's a crime to live Is it a sin for taking time I'm just tryna give The man inside that mirror a lil wife and kids Take it all day by day like I'm doin a bid Now I'm walking down a aisle but my shopping is done After addition and subtraction know the answer is one One bride to bare the ring one God to whom I sing One set of footsteps tell me who gon carry me With a child up in my arms and a knife in my back With a hole inside my chest from how the police react Who gon take care of my love when my casket is latched But like I said we all living we ain't thinking bout that I just wanna give my thanks for this money in this bank Every single hole we patched just so we would never sink Every single time you drove when no gas was in my tank I just pray that we gon make it know what they saying about a blink Moments getting intense could be gon in a instant To the times we're old and grey or when we small as a infant They say the book's already written what we do with the misprints And I know there's no mistakes but this dangerous intent Has these people going crazy what we gon do about it Because I'm sick of being lazy while my mental is clouded So with a pen and instrumental and the fanbase we scouted I think it's time to take a moment for the blessings we're countin Lord can I take this moment as a time for repentance Could you wash away the sins that come from every sentence See what's happening around got me got me goin the distance On the path to my redemption grace is what I was missing Through the lyrics that I sing to the path that I'm sprinting Destiny gon lead the way I'll follow through with my mission If I never see the age or day the world listens Then the only thing I pray is you redeem me of this sin Could you wash away the sins that come from every sentence Could you wash away the sins that come from every sentence On the path to my redemption grace is what I was missing On the path to my redemption grace is what I was missing Destiny gon lead the way I'll follow through with my mission Destiny gon lead the way I'll follow through with my mission But the only thing I pray is you redeem me of this sin But the only thing I pray is you redeem me of this sin Looking at the bigger picture you were cropped out the image I was too focused on that money what I get from percentage Family who had turned to foes who want a bout in this scrimmage Faced about so we finished how our bonds have diminished Every lie I had to tell just to keep you up in my corner And when I had told the truth that's what turned me to a loner Had me writing all these rhymes in the darkest of these corners I'm a loner a stoner my only friend was Corona Or maybe Jack on the black tarmac was my back Staring up at the sky singing lullaby tracks Could the words that I write bring all the ones I loved back Whether in Heaven or Earth my toes in soil or in cracks From the concrete arose a rose that's painted in gold That's how the story was told a page with corner that folds It's time to get off my back ain't got the time to relapse It's time to tighten the slack it's time to work on my act Picking up a bible while they picking up a rifle If they pull the trigger shoot then they guaranteed survival Picking up a rifle while they picking up a bible If I pull the trigger shoot then I'm guaranteed survival Picking up a bible while they picking up a rifle If they pull the trigger shoot are they guaranteed survival Picking up a rifle while they picking up a bible If I pull the trigger shoot am I guaranteed survival R-E-D-E-E-M Singed wings still fly with greater purpose in them Still tryna find greater purpose from Him Til then write these rhymes my verses my hymns Step inside confessionals a line without sin All this black ink what's a pad without pen All this blue ink what's a life without print Homeless women homeless men wonder what its like for them A dollar and redemption a cost without cent A place to call our own what's a home without rent Skin that's paper thin what's a kite without wind Til you find your own direction that's a loss without wins Til you find your own direction that's a loss without wins Skin that's paper thin what's a kite without wind A place to call our own what's a home without rent A dollar and redemption a cost without cent Homeless women homeless men wonder what its like for them All this blue ink what's a life without print All this black ink what's a pad without pen Step inside confessionals whats a line without sin Til then write these rhymes my verses my hymns Still tryna find greater purpose from Him Singed wings still fly with greater purpose in them R-E-D-E-E-M
