Verse 1- Kai
A desperate little girl attacked/I've been around the world and back/ in my own thoughts... at a very bold cost/ Daydreams, nightmares, both kin to reality/ there's horror in their aura as they blindly walk the balance beam/ you're still thinking we're innocent like Lincoln, that is... until that bullet whizzes by you in the balcony/ What's the precedence of a preserved President/ I'm trying to alter history.../ please hear me by the Spirit, what we're discussing is sacrifice; I'm trying to altar history/ via Christ's ministry, little girl He can - and - will altar your misery/ it indeed loves company, and my dear, you're headed for bankruptcy/ but mercy says "You can't touch me." / The blood of Christ speaks a better word.../ than every abuse you ever endured/ and every cry for help... you said, within yourself... that nobody but you... and Jesus Christ ever heard.../ His protection is clear in the fact that you're still here... Press on... Press on...
Hook:
Don't remember... Lord, don't remember... our darkness isn't black, it's more scarlet... and with that, don't remember... please don't remember... on behalf of Your people.
Verse 2- Kai
Every rapist, every victim/ Every racist, every victim... has one thing in common... they all need a Savior/ please Save your hollow piousness/ cause Jesus prolly wouldn't clean dishes with your righteousness/ Alright then.-Apart from grace, our resume is zero/ whether you bought, sold or merely just rapped about the kilo/ it seems so... daunting that we, can identify with villain, victim, and hero/ guilty, guilty, guilty... From the wife enticed by fruit/ who's, married to a man whose tongue, once spoke the Truth/ That's unfortunately connected to the hands that held the noose/ that's connected to a body that fornicated in his youth/ (so)let's not see-saw in repentance, let's just cease all this pretending/ with sin, let's resolve to be finished/ we all fall short, every autumn is amended... but every heart can be mended/ His word is spoken plain, why can't you understand His speech?/ Love is in His palm, but you've preferred an underhanded reach... / There's still time... and hope...
[Hook]
7 In the day of my trouble I will call upon You,
For You will answer me.
8 Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord;
Nor are there any works like Your works.
9 All nations whom You have made
Shall come and worship before You, O Lord,
And shall glorify Your name.
10 For You are great, and do wondrous things;
You alone are God. -Psalm 86:7-10
