Esham - Redemption lyrics

(feat. Violent J)

[Esham]

Oh my god

You came into my life

And turned my world around

I was lost

I couldn't see

My sight was gone

Couldnt find my home

So you know

I smoked some weed n took some pills n even sniffed some blow

And so I repent

Cause all the blessings I've received I know were heaven-sent

I never knew when I spit this shit

Every rapper in the world be on some wicked shit

Its like the first time I hit this shit

See you bit this shit

But wont admit this shit

You saw me shine and sunlit this shit

On my knees at night asking should I quit this shit

When I first started we were total opposites

I think this answer you can see me

On my hip for this

I'm looking for salvation

For all of my sins

Through Jesus sacrifice

Is we living wicked nation

I'm saying amen

Cause I don't wanna die

[Chorus: Violent J]

IT'S ALL ABOUT REDEMPTION

EVERYTHING I DID, AND SAID

ITS ALL ABOUT REDEMPTION

IF WE CAN FORGIVE

WE CAN FORGET

IT'S ALL ABOUT REDEMPTION

[Esham]

It was him

The devil in disguise

With a gun standing right before my eyes

He wanted my life

The wicked shit I speak was never ment for the weak

I'm running outta time

Going outta my mind

Dodging demons in the street

God, please give me a sign

Inherit the earth

Only the children of the weak

So if you really wanna see my soul in hell

Spittin wicked shit I tell the coldest tale

My conscience catch heat its getting old and stale

Its hard to embrace what I hold is hell

If you walk the bloody tail

Bring your holy grail

The devil went after my soul but god closed the cell

Even though the wicked shit knows me well

You wont see me on the wagon as it goes to hell

Believe me hell is lonly

Believe I've been there

My soul he spared

And don't nobody know me

And only he cares

That's why I'm there

It's raining diamonds

[Chorus]
