Lecrae, J.Paul - Finally Free lyrics

Lord I pray you wash away
All these things i’ve got on me Cause
I’m afraid to walk away from the man
I used to be so break away all these chains
So I can finally be free I’m finally free

They go platinum around the world
I go wood in the hood Still good if
I can’t be what they think I should Shoot
I used to work security that was my night job
Hating every minute of it hoping
We got robbed Mad at my bosses
Taking plenty losses
Sick of seeing these drug
Dealers riding by flossing
What I go to school for? Just
To pay these school loans?
Plotting on the hustle but I’m
Knowing that ain’t cool though
One of my friends got sentenced for years
I ain’t right enough I was being
Selfish it’s clear Yo E if
You listening I apologize I was
Running from the old me
Tryna follow Christ You was with
Me in them streets
You took them blows for me
The least I could done was try
To hold you down my G
I got love for you hoping you
See what happened in time
We both guilty I just been acquitted of mine
I’m free

Lord I pray you wash away
All these things i’ve got on me Cause
I’m afraid to walk away from the man
I used to be so break away
All these chains so I can finally be free
I’m finally free

Hey yo this verse is for my siblings
Wish that we was closer
Momma said she think that it will happen
When we older But truth be told
We would prolly be close
If the old me was still here but now
He’s a ghost I know
I was the catalyzer starting all
The trouble And now
My life changed and I'm steady on the hustle
Be wanting to call more but I
Don't know what to say
But your name is on my lips
Every night that I pray
Know you thinking I'm a preacher man
I'm just tryna live in the light of
The son who's so faithful to forgive
Wasn't first to get married but
I'm first to have kids
Let me be first to apologize
For anything I did
It's hard to walk away from the
Only life that you know
The closer I get to God the
More I learn and I grow
Hope you seeing my life you
Know I been changed
I ain't do this on my own
Man God intervened I'm free lord I pray
You wash away all these things
I’ve got on me Cause i’m afraid to walk away
From the man i used to be
So break away all these chains
So I can finally be free i’m finally free

Lastly to every lady that
I dated or manipulated i hate to say it but
My commitment was overrated
I was dedicated to being free
I thought that I could find it
Somewhere between you and me
But I was wrong I kept moving
On treating you like an object
But you know that I've grown
I finally found the freedom unlike
Any I had known
You were never the problem it
Was me all along and now I thank my wife
For dealing with my past
Our covenant's 'til the death promised
That we would last
If that was the old me the
First sign of trouble I'd flee
Thank God I'm finally free that's real

Lord I pray you wash away
All these things i’ve got on me Cause
I’m afraid to walk away from the man
I used to be so break away
All these chains so I can finally be free
I’m finally free
