J.R.I.M. - TEMPTATION

True desperation, is the one that makes you love your foes
Ima make a declaration, know my faith is gonna get me home
I knew she was decorated, from the way she gave me bullet holes
She be my temptation, makes me think that I'm the one at fault
I might need medication, when the sleep just don't fall
Gotta read lamentations, for the times I got a tight heart
Used to treat her like a patient, she was really bouncin' off the walls
She be haunting generations, this a curse that we gotta drop
Now she say that she in love
As soon as I said I was done
Ima leave her dust, cause we started off in the lust
We just ran outta luck
God wasn't in the middle of it so she never really was the one
God wasn't at the heart so I had to tell her that it was fun
Lookin like I'm in Proverbs, I got killed by my flesh
After fallin' 30 more times, I told the Lord never again
But I had the itch once more, and I couldn't help fallin' to sin
I needed to find Him again
I needed to try and repent
Then I got down on my knees, and I prayed that Yah would forgive me
Had to bring an end to the sinning
Had to spread love to the city (Yeah)
And He showed me through the Word that His Son had come, burdens lifting
So I dance in repentance, no more shame
True desperation, is the one that makes you love your foes
Ima make a declaration, know my faith is gonna get me home
I knew she was decorated, from the way she gave me bullet holes
She be my temptation, makes me think that I'm the one at fault
I might need medication, when the sleep just don't fall
Gotta read lamentations, for the times I got a tight heart
Used to treat her like a patient, she was really bouncin' off the walls
She be haunting generations, this a curse that we gotta drop
