3irdCity - The Sinner & The Saint

Straight to it
Even if we're in a simulation
There's still a creator
What a funny thing this twist of fate is
All the benefits that money brings
Still can't skip the pages
So I'll love a God who wants to save
Instead of kill the pagans
Check it, I was one too
Heart of stone, drenched in hatred
When He called me home
Saw the wine spilt
Bread was breaking
He needs nothing, I need everything
He means everything so I'm
Continuing to send Him praises
My soul's a damsel in distress
My flesh is a runaway train
And the track is shaking
I see the world holding up their phones
Capturing the mess
Of me being bloody insane
Trying to clash with greatness
I'm no Titan
All this fighting the potter
Yet I'm the potter's clay
In the modern day
Though my choices and my voice are ancient
Nothing's new under the sun
Until I move under the Son
And I do it everytime
I'm at the point of breaking

Now, when it comes to grace
I lose track of it quickly
Up until it interrupts my day
I put my own back against the wall
And act like nothing's safe
I blame the outside
But it's the inside that corrupts my faith
So often, searching for a closed coffin
Cuz I treat my soul
Like I stuffed it in a trunk for days
And dropped it in the sunken place
Where nothing grows and nothing's changed
If there's gotta be one
I'm a prodigal son
A runaway
Been wasting all of my inheritance
Seeing pigs in slop
Throwing at them all the rarest bits
Of gems and jewels
Realizing my reward's impressing fools
But I'm advised
That He die decided
That's not what I'm meant to do
He raised His son
And now He raised me too
So I'll ask and answer
The question He changed me through
The sinner or the saint
Who do I cater to
Both because the sinner and the saint
Is how I'm painted too
