Lecrae Lyrics

"I'm A Saint" lyrics


Hook:
Yeah they tell me sugar coat it, dumb it down but I can't
Might as well could deny the Jesus and be ashamed but I ain't...imma saint
Til the day I see the grave I'm going hard in the paint
It's the only hope we got dats why I'll die for the faith imma saint

Verse 1:
Used to be where I could only trust me and myself/ and then that Heavy
metal devil that could send em straight to he'll wit it/ thought it
was no helping it my selfishness was celibate I sell a bit but I make
sure I don't sit up in that cell a bit/ i'd yell a bit but only when
hurt came for certain/illiterate ain't know that the word came/ but
then that that light hit me and unblinded me/ Jesus paid a price me /
that's how I gained the right ta be the son of God I'd like to be/
changed my heart and gave me a desire for his work mayne/ kill me if you want but
I'm gone get back out that dirt mayne/ not yet what I'm
gonna be but not what I used to be/ bless his name forever who would
chose me and start using me/used to love my sinning fulla greed fulla
hate/ I might say that I love Jesus/but that talk was really fake/ I'd
be lustin for ya cousin if it wasnt for his Grace/ yeah he took me outta
nothin and he made ya boy a saint

Verse 2:
You got to understand Jesus agreed back in eternity to sign a bloody covenant and take a deadly turn for me/ He ain't just agree he fulfilled it to the death of em/ he took that bloody cup that's meant for us str8 to the neck/ and yeah he swallowed all that bitterness/ that pain and affliction/ ain't a soul in hell with pain comparable to this one/ brought me to repentance/ homie I'm blood purchased/ and daily I'm conformed to his holiness so I worship/ Jesus finished the work/ he resurrected on High/ that means he beat death and best believe so will I/ see some believe they can fly/ but I believe I can die/ resurrect leave the earth/ and live forever with God/ He will march through the sky while the stars sing his praises/ the planets dance around and the universe is amazed/ and me I get to gaze upon his beauty for days/ man if I could be anything baby I'd be a saint/


Verse 3:
You might think I'm crazy like some kinda urban misfit/ but first I
hated church I'd only pray to give my wish list/ I'd be just like you
doing my dougie in the club folk/ I promise I ain't it choose it I was
chosen to loved on/ eyes low blowing dro that's the life I used to
know/ but Jesus chopped me up and slowed me down just like that
Houston flow/ a dead man until somebody hit me with the hardest facts
the Gospel hit my heart I guess that's what you call a heart attack/
I'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 u/ and I don't
understand it homie I Neva planned it/ I was chasing money and fast
women and man/then I met the great I am/son of man/ or the lamb/
snatched ya boy up outta hell/ and got working for his plans/ Used think Ik was the man/til I met em/ all that arrogance and pride I dead em and fo'get em/ Imma SAINT!
