you see the rain
it's in the sky
you see the pain
it's in the eyes
just a man
prone to minimize
at midnight
i can hear the bitter cries
love and hate is thinner line
i see you swallowing your pride to pretend it's fine
i wish i would have seen this ahead of time
then i could avoid all the pain you feel inside
can't sleep
odd memories
crying out to god like
would it ever leave?
lord remember me
what's the remedy?
i don't want to feel like i'm sleeping with the enemy
man
this whole thing is bittersweet
i should forgive since christ is forgiving me
at least i know this in my head
but it's so much easier said
they say forgiveness is a choice
disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
but. swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
forgiveness is a choice
disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
but i gotta swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
it takes time
the minutes pass
erase the lines
you finish last
but you keep submitting to what's in the past
going through the same cycle like a spinning glass
and i know that it's a process
still trying to get past what your pops did
yeah
now you're feeling like a monster
explaining to the counselors everything your mom said
it cuts you
king sue
god know everything you've been through
how you been bruised
he's in tune
but forgiveness is the healing for them wounds
so you gotta let it go
let it go
it'll kill you if you let it grow
unforgiveness is a poison
the choice is yours
i'm just a voice here to let them know that. they say forgiveness is a choice
disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
but i got to swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
they say forgiveness is a choice
disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
but i got to swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
you say i can't forgive
i can't forget
they apologize
you can't accept
demand respect
imagine that
when every time you sinned
god cancelled debt
and every time he's forgiven you
every time that you ate a piece of forbidden fruit
i know you've been abused
i ain't in your shoes
but i know if you let him dig up the bitter roots
and show them love
you'll overcome
loving enemies is part of growing up
wanna hold a grudge
i know it's tough
but if joseph the dreamer forgave his older bros
and christ forgives
and died for sins
and likes to give life though we ain't got the right to live
then we should know how to waive our rights to win
whether we're gray or our life ends
gotta show them love
forgiveness is a choice. swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
forgiveness is a choice. swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
swallow my pride and follow my god till i finish this course
