Redemption |
| I met him at the state store, he was tryin' ta holla |
| I ain’t care if he was old enough to be my father |
| I knew his wife and went to school with his daughter |
| He was the boss that I knew went harder |
| Gave me my first taste bud, I had to take it farther |
| I mean I had to go harder |
| I started callin' up his crib just to get him |
| And I ain’t even care, asked his wife if she was with him |
| Came home late and he got into a fight |
| And he called me that night |
| He said he never want to see me on the block |
| I said, «I don’t need you but I need that rock» |
| I couldn’t take it so I had to go see him |
| Stole my momma car and drove around all evening |
| And when I found him, I thought that he would lace me |
| I ain’t got no money but you know I’ll let you taste me |
| He pulled his gun out and told me I was stupid |
| I started crying, prayed to God, he wouldn’t do it |
| Help please, Lord, I plead, just save me |
| (If you’re really there) |
| Hear the sinner’s prayer |
| (This is my redemption song) |
| Redemption song |
| I met this chick in Philly who said she like to sing |
| I ain’t mean it but I said that it was good she had a dream |
| My daddy used to beat my momma, saw it everyday |
| So when I got with her I did the same thing |
| He always used to say, you gotta keep a bitch tamed |
| So I never let her sing |
| And every chance I got I told her if she ever left me |
| I’ll kill her, that’s how I made her respect me |
| Forget me, never, made her believe, it don’t get no better |
| I told her it was crazy out there |
| She said she don’t care but she can’t stay here |
| The last time I hit her, she went into the kitchen |
| I ain’t pay her no mind, ain’t even know that she was missing |
| She came out bleeding with her eyes all black |
| I looked and saw she had something behind her back |
| She pulled a gun out and told me I was stupid |
| Dropped to my knees and prayed to god she wouldn’t do it |
| Help please, Lord, I plead, just save me |
| (If you’re really there) |
| Hear the sinner’s prayer |
| (This is my redemption song) |
| Redemption song |
| I really need to know if you are there |
| If you could just, just hear a sinner’s prayer |
| You could remake me |
| (Remake me) |
| Oh, just save me |
| (Just save me) |
| I promise if you get me through this, I’ll change |
| I need to be set free |
| Help please, Lord, I plead, just save me |
| (If you’re really there) |
| Hear the sinner’s prayer |
| (This is my redemption song) |
| Redemption song |
| Forgive me, Father |
| (Forgive me, Father) |
| I know I’ve done wrong |
| (I know I’ve done wrong) |
| But I have nowhere else to turn |
| (But I have no where else to turn) |
| So hear me |
| (So hear me) |
| And save me |
| (And save me) |
| Oh, if you’re really there |
