rezin - criminal lyrics

[intro]
my fingers and my tears hit these keys
lord oh lord i want to believe
why would you take this away from me?
oh, i thought you loved me
lord up above take my hand
show me why i’m a stranger in this land
how could this be part of your plan?
cause all your giving me is pain
woah
and i will never now
what it feels like to be like you
it’s rezin
sometimes we can feel imprisoned by the rules and regulations of our faith
we’re shunned and outlawed by the world
because of our commitment to follow the lord
and that can make us forget the great price that was paid for our freedom
let’s go

[verse 1]
judge slam his hammer on the table, that’s my sentence
deed is done no time for my repentance
been a slave since before i was arrested
they found me tryna steal peace, love and protection
i could make a case for insanity
beg god for relief from my humanity
not guilty what i say but the crimes is clear
and i’ll contest the claims but all the evidence is here
fingerprints on the joy that i could not grasp
vandalized inadequacy in which i’m trapped
attempted murder of my flesh, but i couldn’t pull the trigger
as he reading off my sins the list keeps getting bigger
bars around me that will keep my cell
i do whatever i have to, just don’t wanna go to h-ll
maybe if i’m good i’ll get out on good behavior
or maybe i’m not in which case i need a savior

[chorus]
i’m a criminal, that is clear to me
i’ve been a prisoner since i came to be
i should serve my time, but i have been set free
i’m a soldier now, i live by his decree
i’m a criminal, locked up behind bars
and i wonder if i’ll ever touch the stars
eternal reign is his and now he say it’s ours
i will not give up i have made it this far

[verse 2]
my depravity got me feeling like a criminal
messages subliminal
making sure i know that my crimes are not minimal
maximum security, steel bars securing me
every day i wake up i feel the dents in my purity
every day i wake up in the morning feeling guilty
there have even been some days where i was wishing you would k!ll me
i don’t want the lord’s spirit to come and fill me
at the end life will still just come on in and drill me
only a few know the real me
everyday i’m wishing you would come down and heal me
maybe if i turned around once i’d see the broken prison walls
maybe if i listened up i’d hear the lord when he calls
maybe instead of seeing a cage in which you trapped me
i could finally see the clear narrow path which you mapped me
jesus christ you’re the reason that i do this rap thing
pray give me vision so that i can see what’s happening

[bridge]
i was dirty water, but my father made me blameless
shiny but i’m tough like steel, stainless
cause of jesus blood i can say that i am shameless
one sixteen my inheritance i claim this
and you know just what the gain is
i know that it’s hard and your life ain’t painless
but you gotta remember that the rainbow where the rain is
if we wanna change the world then we gotta let him change us

[chorus]
we should serve our time, but we have been set free
we are soldiers now, we live by his decree
i’m a criminal, locked up behind bars
and i wonder if i’ll ever touch the stars
eternal reign is his and now he say it’s ours
i will not give up now i have made it this far

it’s rezin
