Mercy (Confession) [prod. Hanto]

Mercy (Confession) We are kneeling at the rivers edge and tempting All the steps to follow closer right behind Is it only when you feel a part is empty That it’s gnawing at the corners of your mind (x2) Confession’s on the table I gave into temptation I cannot live a lie, a fable put me on probation I know sin is fatal There is no evasion Of feeling this, it’s painful Eating at me, shameful I know I can’t change it I sinned again, I sinned again I know it’s betrayal Contradiction in my veins I’m a fool in April I know I deserve the flames LORD please show me mercy No excuse, but I’m not perfect God of Abraham is Holy I know I’m not worthy I need Your forgiveness but I know I don’t deserve it This was not an accident, I did it on purpose I knew You were watching, but I went and did it anyway did it for my skin, but my body decays anyway I can hear Satan whispering I can hear serpents hissing and I can hear demons listening Waiting for the moment that I become dissonant We are kneeling at the rivers edge and tempting All the steps to follow closer right behind Is it only when you feel a part is empty That it’s gnawing at the corners of your mind (x2) oooooh ha ha (2) How can I preach if I’m still eating the fruit How can I teach if I’m not living in Truth How am I saved if I’m not living for You How can I be whole when my soul's broken in two You don’t think I’m feeling this? This is my experience Sin is very serious wage is death, period This is all real for me It’s easy lyrically when I’ve got the Fear in me I really hope you’re hearing me I’m fearing for my soul I know I’m veering off the path I know I lost control and I know I’ll face the wrath I know You don’t condone I’m trying to do the math Of what I must uphold Me plus Christ is bloodbath That means letting go I’m walking on a warpath am I heading home if I’m too dirty at the doormat If you came condemning those it’s a fiery forecast That means no wedding robes please expose my sins and give me strength to turn I’ve got darkness still within And all the darkness burns Please guide me in Your ways Help my faith stay firm I don’t want to fall away To the point of no return I just need Your grace (I'm so sorry) We are kneeling at the rivers edge and tempting All the steps to follow closer right behind Is it only when you feel a part is empty That it’s gnawing at the corners of your mind (x2) oooooh ha ha (2) Oooohhhhh In the muddy water we’re falling Oooohhhhh In the muddy water we’re crawling Hold me down Hold me now Sold me out In the muddy waters we’re falling I will ask you for mercy I will come to you blind What you’ll see is the worst me Not the last of my kind (x2)
