Lyrics “Saved Me”
Stoop, go stupid
You know, this been on my heart for a minute now
I ain’t holding back no more
Even though y’all ain’t seen this yet, just know we ready
Coming in with this water flooded on me, just broke the levy
Had to go pray a little harder, told my Father life is heavy
Jesus gon’ take that wheel and he gon’ whip it like a Chevy
I don’t want to come in dead last
All my brothers right beside me and they steadfast
I ain’t tryna go look for new friends, they get scared fast
Christians gon’ look at me like I’m crazy if my pants sag
Some of these folks probably think I’m lazy, I got jet lag
Saving these souls around the globe, I do digits
And I got a gift, so I need my partner home for Christmas
Sitting in prison, reading the Scripture on forgiveness
Lord, forgive his
Father, let me down, see, I pray the Lord my soul to keep (Yeah)
Got a whole lot, just part of me, I pray that you watch over me (C’mon)
Even though I been sinnin’ (Sinnin’)
I’ma just lean on God, no more sippin’ (No more sippin’)
I’ma go get baptized like my wrist did (Bust that wrist)
I’m so glad You saved me (I’m so glad)
I’m so glad You saved me, You saved me, You saved me (Yeah)
I’m so glad You saved me, You saved me, You saved me (Let’s get it)
Can’t believe You forgave me (Can’t believe it)
I’m so glad You saved me (I’m so glad)
I’m so glad You saved me, You saved me, You saved me (Yeah)
I’m so glad You changed me, You changed me, You changed me (Let’s go)
Every time I go through phases, I promise they don’t phase me (I promise)
Could’ve been locked in cages when the police came and chased me (I could’ve)
Forgive the ones that’s hating, they don’t know how good Your grace be (They don’t)
I just want to go to Heaven, I know Hell ain’t got no AC
Used to live my life in past tense (Past tense)
21 years, I gave my folks embarrassment
Tryna listen to the gangsters and the terrorists (Terrorists)
Had a good life from the jump, but I ain’t cherish it (Ain’t cherish it)
Now I gotta go make it up for let them heir it
But I thank God for the East side (Thank You, God)
Even if I can’t save everybody, we tried (We tried)
Lord, I got day-one relationships to revive (Yeah)
Father, let me down, see, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Got a whole lot, just part of me, I pray that you watch over me
Even though I been sinnin’
I’ma just lean on God, no more sippin’
I’ma go get baptized like my wrist did
I’m so glad You saved me
I’m so glad You saved me, You saved me, You saved me
I’m so glad You saved me, You saved me, You saved me
Can’t believe You forgave me
I’m so glad You saved me
I’m so glad You saved me, You saved me, You saved me
I’m so glad You changed me, You changed me, You changed me
