Without transgression, can't know the joy of redemption

I'm here, living like I'm supposed to do
Keep this moment frozen, keep it cold, stay cool
I forgot who I was for a hot second, my hearts breaking
I learned my lesson, not today Satan!
So I pour my heart, my soul, my life on keys
Just so that maybe I can find some peace
Other rappers claim that God's the mic and beat
But I lost it all thinking I'd rely on me
Take my will, it's all I've got to give tonight
Take me and make me into a warrior, I was born to fight
In this corrupted world, my soul's fortified
'Cause I found what really matters and it saved my life
Tired of running and never feeling satisfied
Sacrifice my heart and along with it this carnal mind
I'm so close, I can see that finish line
Just stride it out, we gon' be alright yah

And I tried my best but it wasn't enough
I failed that test and I couldn't get up
I lost that light and I was blind where I was
But you heard my cries and you never gave up
I never thought I'd have your trust like I do
I didn't know that I was weak 'til I found you
But you take me higher, towards the stars, the moon, the sun I fly
You make me better than I was, I'm not that other guy.

Come, tell me how I fall short
Although I fall there's hope, that's really what I long for
I was on the wrong course, dead inside, haunted lore
On the verge to self destruct, I'd hide the truth from my corpse
No need to leave reality behind
No need to freak, no need to rewind
Let's just take today a step at a time
Put the past in the past and the present to find
I've played a lot of wrong notes on my trombone
I've accepted even for breath I'm dependent, a servant indebted
I would be ignorant to take any credit
Strip away my doubts, I'm praying faith is what I'm left with
Desperate to escape from myself, my sins, and weakness
To consecrate my all, I rend this coat and taste the freedom
Freed from pride, forget the ego
Life's new lease, I'm on my feet and
Humbled by that sacrifice, without that blood I'm beaten.

And I tried my best but it wasn't enough
I failed that test and I couldn't get up
I lost that light and I was blind where I was
But you heard my cries and you never gave up
I never thought I'd have your trust like I do
I didn't know that I was weak 'til I found you
But you take me higher, towards the stars, the moon, the sun I fly
You make me better than I was, I'm not that other guy.

Redemption

A step at a time, it'll all be alright
I know I'm on the right side
You've forgiven my pride, so fix my desires
You've guided me here and still lift me higher
A step at a time, it'll all be alright
I know I'm on the right side
You've forgiven my pride, so fix my desires
You've guided me here and still lift me higher

This guy you're speaking of I haven't seen a minute
We no longer associate and I'm saying good riddance, uh
The difference between the two is really quite drastic
If you knew the other you'd be shocked, I mean he was static
If you refuse to see the obvious contrast
You probly need get yourself some new prescription glasses
It took some time but decided to cut my ties
Send a text but don't expect one back from the other guy

I never thought I'd have your trust like I do
I didn't know that I was weak 'til I found you
But you take me higher, towards the stars, the moon, the sun I fly
You make me better than I was, I'm not that other guy

Woah-oh, woah-oh, I'm not that other guy
Woah-oh, woah, I'm not that other guy
Woah-oh, woah-oh, I'm not that other guy
Woah-oh, woah, I'm not that other guy
