Make Me Over (feat. Conscience & Nena Lockhart)
Je'kob
A great man once told me, don't let your sins get you down
But that's harder than it seems homie, what goes around man it really goes around
And I'm just tryina be a servant, but man I keep messin' up
Followin' the white rabbit down the hole
Curious to how he's gonna take my soul
And I'm sorry for the things I've done, I know that you forgive me Lord
My righteousness a filthy rag, aint suitable to clean the floor
And I don't deserve to be your son, I don't deserve to call you poppa
I'm sick of being sick & tired, man somebody betta call a doctor
Lord please make me over
Yeah tired of feelin' down & out
Watchin' my faith about to drown in doubt
But someone told me that's what grace is all about
Lord please make me over
Yeah slammin' on them breaks in that fast life
Chasin' cash like tonight is my last night
Livin' in the future like the present is my past life
Twice upon a time there was a boy who died
And lived happily ever after, but that's another chapter
Of life, & I'm sure that if a digital could capture
It would be worth a thousand words, all verbs, all action
I pray, but you must receive mine in closed caption
Delayin' your reaction breaks me down like a fraction
And momma aint got the gills to swim in these bills
And the only thing I seem to afford is cheap thrills
Lord, and I can't afford that
Blessed are the poor in spirit, I guess that's where I'm at
I'm just lookin' out for that blessed part
to manifest & resserruct my deceptive heart
which seems to be more deceptive than decepticons
Make me over, transform, it's morphin' time
Mastadon, waiting' on my day to dawn
As the darkness turns into light
Lord please make me over
Yeah tired of feelin' down & out
Watchin' my faith about to drown in doubt
But someone told me that's what grace is all about
Lord please make me over
Yeah slammin' on them breaks in that fast life
Chasin' cash like tonight is my last night
Livin' in the future like the present is my past life
Make me clean
Livin' on a prayer, beggin' for your favor
Make me clean
I be livin' so selfish but I know you can safe me
Yo let your grace come in, or somethin'
Cause I just can't stop runnin' from the nothin'
I feel like I'm Atreyu, on some never ending journey
I ain't James, & I'm far from worthy
But His grace is sufficient & I'm not lyin' to ya
Come & hang with me, I'll probably start cryin' to ya
And there ain't no better time for you to start
Cause He's knock knock knocking', knockin' on the door of your heart
Lord please make me over
Yeah tired of feelin' down & out
Watchin' my faith about to drown in doubt
But someone told me that's what grace is all about
Lord please make me over
Yeah slammin' on them breaks in that fast life
Chasin' cash like tonight is my last night
Livin' in the future like the present is my past life
