Lyrics
[Intro]
The lord is in his holy temple
The lords throne is in Heaven
His eyes behold
His search and glance is on mankind
The lord searches the just and the wicked
The lover of violence he hates
Upon the wicked he shall rain down fire and brimstone
A burning blast is their destiny
For the lord is just
He loves just deeds
The righteous shall see his face
Psalm eleven, verse four to seven
[Verse]
Our father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name, I know I've been sinning but I'm wonderin', if I'll be forgiven for everything that I have done in vain, under strain
I know if I met you right now I would have my head hung in shame, because of the things I've been doin' you don't want me pursuin' but sellin' deuce so I'm the one to blame
Run that game, I gotta get my money so I do what I gotta so I can feed my fam
But once in a time, I gotta do bad things so I wonder if the life that I lead is damned
I need a hand, help me to forgive those who wanna trespass and who try to pretend
'Cause when I come across somebody who be doin' me dirty I wanna get immediate revenge
I descend, down with the quickness, feeling like I'm trapped in a pit so dark
Mentally battling with the beast within till eventually my mind just splits apart
Fix my heart, all the wickedness in the world has turned it cold and black
Even though my heart may bleed 'cause I'm wantin' salvation I gotta keep my soul intact
Holding back, never, gotta rise above the haters who wanna see me flop
And I know what my downfall is so Lord could you please let the greed be stopped?
Lead me not, into temptation, help me get away from the hate and pain
When I die, I don't wanna spend eternity living in Hell where Satan reigns
Draped in chains, I feel like a fallen angel tryna get right with God
And I'm ready and willing to try to get back up to Heaven with Him despite the odds
Hear my prayer, help me overcome the demons and the negativity they send
To you I pray in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit
Amen
[Outro]
Yeah, I know I have my wicked ways and I've had 'em for a while
Sometimes it's hard to survive in this wicked world without 'em
But I know I can make it up to heaven if I tried
I just gotta focus, I just gotta focus, I just gotta focus
The lord is in his holy temple
The lords throne is in Heaven
His eyes behold
His search and glance is on mankind
The lord searches the just and the wicked
The lover of violence he hates
Upon the wicked he shall rain down fire and brimstone
A burning blast is their destiny
For the lord is just
He loves just deeds
The righteous shall see his face
