Oh Wretched Man

[INTRO] Dag I keep messing up / seems like the good I wanna do I don't do and the bad I don't wanna do I end up doing / this is crazy Romans 7-like /

[VERSE 1] We're in a (hip-hop) era full of (hip-hop) errors not just the block but the heart's what (hip-hop) mirrors (now) / somebody told me that we're not naughty (then) / I objected and directed their attention to the Top 40 / we stopped at the top 10 looked how we propped sin / the case was closed when the videos were dropped in (from) / naked females to dirty sex and emails it affects from retail down to the street sales (every detail) / you can leave the heart unsupervised watch the heart ask for sin and ask the cashier to please supersize / read Romans and peep your corners for bonus we're gonna be wrong as long as were breathing we need a Jonah /

[HOOK] (Oh wretched man) the problem ain't that we rock Timbs (that I am) the problem is we've got sin (who will deliver me) even with a new start (from this body of death) we need to be free we need a new heart / (oh wretched man) the problem is not just behavior (that I am) the problem is there's rot in our nature (who will deliver me) even with a new start (our Lord) we need to be free we need a new heart /

[VERSE 2] I serve word cause it's what the suburbs and the hood needs / wrecking the thought that heaven's earned by your goods deeds / I'm mad precise when it's the afterlife / you bank on good deeds but you can't think this counts (discounts) like half the price / sin is genetic it's / the reason your appetite for it is husky like that school up in Connecticut / (just) check the Bible for a honest diagnosis / or just smell cause you can tell like chronic halitosis / we all sin / you know we each are prone / if only humans are affected then to each his own / but God sees it and it's reached His throne / in Him there's no sin like there's no such thing as pizza bones (!) / (the spiritual truth) we have no spiritual loot we're bankrupt and we have bad spiritual root / every day we grow bad spiritual fruit / we need God to hold back that spiritual boot /

[VERSE 3] Whenever God is ready He can break down a sinner (take down a sinner) like I take a steak down for dinner / the job of God the Spirit is to pull / a person to Christ it's like it's irresistible / He makes Christ known / your eyes light up like when the breaklight's on -- there's a change I've grown (yo) / I know it happened to me I met the Surgeon / He changed my heart then went the blunts and the cursing / kept on working for certain He keeps purging / now instead of bourbon I'm fervently reading Spurgeon / that blow God handed me put me on hand and knee / brought a kid that's caramel low (Carmelo) like Anthony / and now can it be? got me in His family? / repping the kingdom of God dropping Him on the industry / this is the truth / I pray you can catch it fam / Jesus Christ can give life to a wretched man /
