Ambassador - Oh Wretched Man lyrics
rate meOh wretched man- the problem ain't that we rock Timbs <br />That I am- the problem is we've got sin <br />Who shall deliver me?- even with a new start <br />From this body of death?- we need to be freed, we need a new heart <br /> <br />Oh wretched man- the problem is not just behavior <br />That I am- the problem is there's rot in your nature <br />Who will deliver me- even with a new start <br />Our Lord- we need to be freed, we need a new heart <br /> <br /> <br />We're in a hip-hop era full of hip-hop errors <br />Not just the block but the heart's what hip-hop mirrors <br />Somebody told me that we're not naughty <br />I objected and directed their attention to the Top 40 <br />We stopped at the top ten; looked how we propped sin <br />The case was closed when the videos were dropped in <br />From naked females to dirty sex in emails <br />It affects from retail down to the street sales- every detail <br />You can leave the heart unsupervised <br />Watch the heart ask for sin and ask the cashier to please super-size <br />Read Romans and peep your corners for bonus <br />Were gonna be wrong as long as were breathing- we need a Jonah <br /> <br /> <br />I serve word cause it's what the suburbs and the hood needs <br />Wreckin' the thought that heaven's earned by your goods deeds <br />I'm mad precise when it's the after-life <br />You bank on good deeds but you can't think this "dis-counts" like half the price <br />Sin is genetic it's <br />The reason your appetite for it is husky like that school up in Connecticut <br />Check the Bible for a honest diagnosis <br />Or just smell cause you can tell like chronic halitosis <br />We all sin- you know we each are prone <br />If only humans were affected then to each his own <br />But God sees it and it's reached his throne <br />In him there's no sin <br />Like there's no such thing as pizza bones <br />The spiritual truth- we have no spiritual loot <br />We're bankrupt and we have bad spiritual root <br />Every day we grow bad spiritual fruit <br />We need God to hold back that spiritual boot <br /> <br /> <br />Whenever God is ready he can break down a sinner <br />Take down a sinner, like I take a steak down for dinner <br />The job of God the Spirit is to pull <br />A person to Christ <br />It's like it's irresistible <br />He makes Christ known <br />Your eyes light up like when the break light's on <br />There's a change- "I've grown" <br />I know it happened to me; I met the Surgeon <br />He changed my heart, there went the blunts and the cursin' <br />Kept on workin', for certain He keeps purgin' <br />Now instead bourbon, I'm fervently reading Spurgeon <br />That blow God handed me <br />Put me on hand and knee <br />Brought a kid that's caramel low like Anthony <br />Now can it be? Got me in His family <br />Reppin' the kingdom of God, droppin' Him on the industry <br />This is the truth, I pray you can catch it fam' <br />Jesus Christ can give life to a wretched man <br /><br />
