Lecrae

While there’s no sure route to carving out a significant presence in the music industry, there’s always something to be said for remaining true to one’s self. Since arriving on the scene with his 2004 debut Real Talk, Lecrae has been occupying two different yet not entirely opposing worlds: the sacred and the profane. Which is to say that his art, not unlike his life, has been as much about inspiring the streets, and about justice, freedom, and interrogating real-world issues, as it is about his personal journey of faith. His music has long served as a call to arms for those willing to sacrifice for a cause beyond themselves. Still, he won’t be boxed in to any genre or made to serve as a poster-child for any particular agenda. Following a host of celebrated … more »

I'm sorry
I started the same drugs
No church in a while (save us, save us)
No church in a while (save us, save us)
Save us, save us (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Save us, save us (oh, oh-oh)
Save us, save us (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Save us, save us

Invested so much in this game, I'm just wonderin' where's all my profits? Huh? Ha
They tryna bait me with hate and false prophets, I'm weighin' my options
Should I stay or just stop while I'm poppin'? I know He ain't save to talk 'bout my watches
'Bout my houses and four-car garages
I lie on my bed, prayin' face up
With my eyes open, hopin' He say somethin' (please)
Yeah, tripled the price in a week (week)
Spirit is reelin', my flesh feelin' weak (weak)
Clocks on my wall and I still can't get sleep
'Cause I keep seein' people get killed in the streets
I got my pride on a leash
Life on a lease, I've been dodgin' the beast
Sex, money, man, am I fightin' for peace?
Please send Your angels to watch over me

Save us
When did I asleep? Father, wake us, uh
Gotta be more than dreams, won't You save us?
Mercy unfold
Heaven's an open door

Hey, no more locked doors
I took the keys out the janitor's closet (I took the keys)
It was me, you can call the police
I know I'll be set free, if they cuff me about it (it was me)
On the way to the jail, it rerouted
Came home to my family, they seen me, then shouted (what they said?)
Hallelujah, they thought it was over (yeah)
Spend a night in the swamp with the ogre (Shrek)
When they try you and talk to you vulgar
Walkin' through life, I'm tryna get new balance
I rolled the dice and took too many chances (rolled the dice)
Hand on the Bible, it might come in handy
Life is not fair but I got cotton candy (that's the game)
My life is new, I can't throw it away (brand new life)
Mercy rainin' on me, they complainin' on me
While I'm drippin' in grace (God, save me)
Lord, save us

Save us (save us)
When did I asleep? Father, wake us, (wake us), uh
Gotta be more than dreams, won't You save us?
Mercy unfold (mercy unfold)
Heaven's an open door (Heaven's an open door)

Finally free, I got the keys
Closer to Heaven when I'm on my knees
Heart on my sleeve, pardon my steez
Fightin' my demons, I walk with a lean
Dodgin' debris, fallin' like Eve
Pain ain't a seed in my family tree
Runnin' our fleet, confess and relieve
This ain't lil' holy, it's WHATUPRG
Guidin' my soul, walkin' on go
Lost an eternity, back in my zone
In with the new, out with the old
Praise to the Holy One up on the throne
This for the heart, this for the soul
Why would I rap 'bout the things that I own?
I gotta walk what I talk when it's wrong
Hop out the grave and I'm rollin' the stone

Save us
When did I asleep? Father, wake us, uh
Gotta be more than dreams, won't You save us?
Mercy unfold
Heaven's an open door
