Lirik I'm a Saint

Kadosh
Old Testament
Hagios, New Testament
Inherently, the word means to holy, we know In not
Holy in our own terms
But, Christ who loved makes us holy
So because
He satisfied the wrath of God
The beef has been crushed, now we got a new identity
Called a saint (yup!)

Hey, hey
Used to be where I could only trust me and myself
And then that heavy metal devil
That could send 'em straight to Hell with it
Thought it was no helpin' it, selfishness was celibate
I sell a bit, but I make sure I don't sit up in that cell a bit
I'd yell a bit, but only when hurt came for certain
Illiterate, ain't know that the word came
In that word, hit me and unblinded me

Jesus paid a price for me
That's how I gained the right to be the son of God I'd like to be
Changed my heart, gave me a desire for his work man
Kill me if you want
But I'm gone, get back up out that dirt man
Not yet what I'm gonna be, but not what I used to be
I bless His name forever
Who would choose me and start usin' me

Used to love my sinnin' fulla greed and fulla hate
I might say that I love Jesus, but that talk was really fake
I'd be lustin' for ya cousin, if it wasn't for His grace
Yeah, He took me outta nothin' and He made ya boy a saint

(Yeah) they tell me sugar coat it, dumb it down, but I can't
Might as well deny the Christ, be ashamed, but I ain't
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
'Til the day I see the grave, I'm going hard in the paint
It's the only hope we got, that's why I'll die for the faith
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)

You got to understand, Jesus agreed back in eternity
To sign a bloody covenant and take a deadly turn for me
He ain't just agree, He fulfilled it to the death of Him
Took that bloody cup that's meant for us straight to the neck again
Swallowed all that bitterness, pain and affliction
Ain't a soul in Hell with pain comparable to this one

Brought me to repentance, homie I'm blood-purchased
Daily I'm conformed to His holiness, so I worship
Jesus finished the work, He resurrected on high
That means He beat death and best believe so will I
See some believe they can fly, but I believe I can die
Resurrect, leave the earth and live forever with God
He will march through the sky while the stars sing His praises
The planets dance around while the universe is amazed
Me, I get to gaze upon His beauty for days
Man if I could be anything baby I'd be a saint

(Yeah) they tell me sugar coat it, dumb it down, but I can't
Might as well deny the Christ, be ashamed, but I ain't
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)

'Til the day I see the grave, I'm going hard in the paint
It's the only hope we got, that's why I'll die for the faith
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)

First Corinthians chapter one
Paul calls one of the worst churches
In the New Testament saints
Not because of man's choosing
But clearly, because Of God's choosing
Through the Lord Jesus Christ

Now, now you might think I'm crazy, like some kinda urban misfit
But first I hated church, I'd only pray to give my wish list
I'd be just like you, doin' my dance up in the club, folk
I promise I ain't it choose it, I was chosen to be loved on
Eyes low, blowing dro, that's the life I used to know
But Jesus chopped me up
And slowed me down just like that Houston flow

A dead man, until somebody hit me with the hardest facts
The Gospel hit my heart, I guess that's what you call a heart attack
I'm looking at Ephesians two, like what did Jesus see in you?
It's nothin', by His grace He chose to love on folk like me and you
And I don't understand it, homie, I never planned it
I was chasing money and fast women and man

Then I met the great I AM, Son of Man, or the Lamb
Snatched ya boy up outta Hell, and got me workin' for His plans
Used to think I was the man 'til I met Him
All that arrogance and pride, I dead 'em and fo'get 'em
I'm a saint

(Yeah) they tell me sugar coat it, dumb it down, but I can't
Might as well deny the Christ, be ashamed, but I ain't
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
'Til the day I see the grave, I'm going hard in the paint
It's the only hope we got, that's why I'll die for the faith
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
I'm a saint (I'm a saint)
