YS Pablo - Redemption Lyrics

Redemption
Knew the truth, even though I suppressed it
Life was dead, but I tried to protect it
Chose up, but this ain't an elective
Once was lost, I was saving face
Then I found His amazing grace
Brought me up when I once was down
Just gotta trust that He'll make a way, let's go
Redemption
Knew the truth, even though I suppressed it
Life was dead, but I tried to protect it
Chose up, but this ain't an elective
Once was lost, I was saving face
Then I found His amazing grace
Brought me up when I once was down
Just gotta trust that He'll make a way, let's go
Slavery (Huh)
Old days, I was suffering greatly
No love, everybody would hate me
Got moms worrying bout my safety, no one could take me
Back in the day, I was livin' chaotic
In my sin, I was livin' demonic
Talkin' crazy, then you know I was on it
Got moms thinkin' that I done lost it, huh
No rest for the weary, huh (Weary)
Eyes looking real teary, huh (Teary)
Sky looking real dreary, huh
So lost, it was scary (Scary)
Everybody got em something they worship
It don't matter how it look on the surface
Many years, I was looking for purpose
Sold my soul to the devil, he purchased
'Member days that I had no hope
Nun but death every time I spoke
Fake smile, like it's all a bad joke
Always tears in the back of my throat
Huh, then Jesus came and He rescued me
Jesus came and He set me free
Dead to my sin, I can rest in peace, let's go
Redemption
Knew the truth, even though I suppressed it
Life was dead, but I tried to protect it
Chose up, but this ain't an elective
Once was lost, I was saving face
Then I found His amazing grace
Brought me up when I once was down
Just gotta trust that He'll make a way, let's go
Redemption
Knew the truth, even though I suppressed it
Life was dead, but I tried to protect it
Chose up, but this ain't an elective
Once was lost, I was saving face
Then I found His amazing grace
Brought me up when I once was down
Just gotta trust that He'll make a way, let's go
So I guess that I'm done with the old me
Came to learn I was sorely mistaken (Mistaken)
Thought the devil couldn't hold me
But I put up a front, I was faking (Faking)
I was blinded to the old seeds
Of the previous path I had taken (Taken)
I was caught up in my old deeds
And my very foundation was shaken (Shaken)
Then it was back to the old life (Life)
Back in the dark, there was no light (Light)
Numb to the pain, there was no strife (Strife)
I was alone on a cold night (Night)
Then I made a decision I'll never forget
Did a few things I'll forever regret
Still gotta deal with the after-effects
Was killing the joy that I tried to protect (That I tried to protect)
Huh, but I decided I would turn it around
Rock bottom, had to start from the ground
Can't believe it, I was stupid and proud
But I had no choice
Either I perish or Ima rejoice
I decided that I had to repent
Now I'm just praying He's hearing my voice, my God
