I'm A Saint
Yeah they tell me sugar coat it, dumb it down but I can'tMight as well deny the Christ and be ashamed but I ain't, I'm a saintTil the day I see the grave I'm going hard in the paintIt's the only hope we got dats why I'll die for the faith, I'm a saint
Used to be where I could only trust me and myselfAnd then that heavy metal devil that could send 'em straight to hell wit itThought it was no helping it, my selfishness was celibate, I sell a bitBut I make sure I don't sit up in that cell a bitI'd yell a bit but only when hurt came for certainIlliterate ain't know that the word cameBut then that that light hit me and unblinded meJesus paid a price meThat's how I gained the right to be the son of God I'd like to beChanged my heart and gave me I desire for his work mayneKill me if you want but I'm gone get back out that dirt mayneNot yet what I'm gonna be but not what I used to beBless his name forever who would chose me and start using meUsed to love my sinning fulla greed, fulla hateI might say that I love Jesus, but that talk was really fakeI'd be lustin' for ya cousin, if it wasn't for his GraceYeah he took me outta nothin', and he made ya boy a saint
You got to understand, Jesus agreed back in eternity, to sign a bloody covenant and take a deadly turn for meHe ain't just agree, he fulfilled it to the death of em'He took that bloody cup that's meant for us straight to the neckAnd yeah he swallowed all that bitternessThat pain and afflictionAin't a soul in hell with pain comparable to this oneBrought me to repentance, homie I'm blood purchasedAnd daily I'm conformed to his holiness, so I worshipJesus finished the work, He resurrected on highThat means he beat death and best believe so will ISee some believe they can fly, but I believe I can dieResurrect leave the earth, and live forever with GodHe will march through the sky while the stars sing his praisesThe planets dance around and the universe is amazedAnd me I get to gaze upon his beauty for daysMan, if I could be anything baby I'd be a saint
You might think I'm crazy, like some kinda urban misfitBut first I hated church, I'd only pray to give my wish listI'd be just like you, doing my dougie in the club folkI promise I ain't it choose it I was chosen to loved onEyes low, blowing dro, that's the life I used to knowbut Jesus chopped me up and slowed me down just like that Houston flowA dead man until somebody hit me with the hardest factsThe Gospel hit my heart, I guess that's what you call a heart attackI'm looking at Ephesians 2 like what did Jesus see in you, nothin'By his grace he chose to love on folk like me and youand I don't understand it homie, I neva planned itI was chasing money and fast women and man, then I met the great I am, Son of Man, or The LambSnatched ya boy up outta hell, and got working for his plansUsed think I was the man, 'til I met 'emall that arrogance and pride, I dead 'em and foget 'emI'm a SAINT!
