chris mack - chief of sinners lyrics

verse 1:
i write this letter just to speak about the truth that’s written better
to all my friends who look up to me as a higher standard
to all of my supporters of my music and my motives
to all my family members thinking i’m the chosen moses
to all the non-believers fooled by christian sn-bby figures
to all the skeptics dancing round relationship with jesus
to opposite beliefs that claim that they are one with truth
to all the co-exists that think beliefs will all allude a broader path to go
i got some garbage that i need to show
a glamorous life will never benefit your soul or mine
and so i figured i could be the honest one instead of lie
upon a bed of lies or give a lovely paved facade
feel you need to get the water poured up on you so do i
and what happened really shouldn’t happen here’s an honest trailer
when i flip the pages of all my wrongs of all of my ages
of all of my actions of all of my thoughts of all conversations
see i inherited sin, that i was born in
got some generational curses that were in storage
saw the weed the beverages but it wasn’t important
women carried the apple of appetizing distortion
i wanted women, i wanted women in close quarters
physical and emotional lock em inside the boarders
traveled along the corridor, just to get the high
it’s like i’m up on cloud nine, stacking feelings to the sky
i hated thoughts of profession, so i kept it inside
fearing what man would think and i’m leaving room for the pride
i grew up to be a god in my mind, the people love me
parents love me, i was an image beyond the prize
can’t n-body touch me ain’t n-body messing wit me
i had a mic so when i rapped i was investing in me
so even when i spoke of god inside the music that i played
it was the times behind the stage, i would never even pray
had a phase when i just sprinkled christian lingo on a rhyme scheme
and that’s a misconduct
thought that god would be okay if i just said his name and talked about my awesomeness
never really felt right on my consciousness
can’t forget decline in my fan base, started losing traffic
saw some other rappers for jesus reaching the m-sses
never got he chance to hang and so i felt my jealousy
my case, wasn’t right if they was right and i was mad
bitter bite in the dog pound, best if i speak it now
before i even let the hounds sniff me out
i am a prideful man, and i don’t like to admit it
but it does my heart good when you say that you get it
i know my friends need jesus but i don’t speak my peace
i know that i need jesus, break these chains off of me
i know my cousins look to me but they be caught in the streets
and i don’t take time to feed em or believe in em
i’m the chief of sinners boy

verse 2:
father in heaven hallowed be thy name
thy kingdom come, thy will be done as it is in heaven
i need the lights on like thee 7-eleven
always wanted a golden ticket, just to enter heaven
i remember the time when my faith came real
invited to youth group, didn’t know i would build
them white kids, they would sing and they would stand so still
but i guarantee they knew the purpose of their sword and their shield
and as a black man finally understood and was drawn to it
in desperate need of saving needed to respond to it
i’m a sinner given grace, in jesus i put my faith
helping me k!ll my sin daily every single day
i’d be a liar if i said i walked it in perfection everyday
but by the blood of christ i’m perfect and i’m saved
i don’t owe my flesh a thing cause i’m no longer a slave
i am free and i don’t need to bow to sin lord help me
lord help me, i’m tempted to view these women wrong
need to swerve when i’m looking at them too long
the father told me cut it out cause it will do him wrong
what’s even worse is i don’t gain but i just miss it all
glory in heaven with my savior my lord, that’s the measure
and in this kingdom is forever everlasting pleasure
better than the s-x, better than the rep
better than the status i just haven’t seen it all yet
but holy spirit help me wait for it, and till then
you are my helper, and i can resist sin
the chief of sinners is ready to turn his crown in
so i’ll stand for you lord, unbounded
