Alex Faith - ATLast lyrics

[Verse 1: Alex Faith] Gang sign holding up Gas prices going up Can't wait until the day to get wasted because he's old enough Turned 21, in the bathroom throwing up But this is not a new thing He's kind of well acquainted but Don't know how he got here Falling from the top here Thinking everyday might be his last, it's a nightmare That boy is going in Ain't no sign of him ever stopping So he's grinding everyday to put them dollars in his wallet Running on a wheel is the future he never watching When he get a little change Just burning holes all in his pocket That's just how it be when you coming from where we from The side of town where all you finding is liquor bottles and guns We know it ain't right But do we judge him for it? The one around my way even knows what they really living for That's just how it be though It's kind of a lame excuse So we singing songs of freedom while they tightening the noose [Hook: Christon Gray] People come and people go It's hard to really know who's here to stay But I made you a promise and I locked it in the gates of Heaven [?... my mind] Brought you this far Just a little while longer you'll hear me say I know it was a struggle but I love you and you made it at last You made it at last [Verse 2: Alex Faith] All my life I never had nothing I seen my mom and daddy struggling To get us what we needed Extra something here and there But the greatest gift of all was the Gospel of God When I was lost in sin He came and met me in a puddle of blood Beneath the rugged cross I laid "What've I done!?" Looking up I'm at the feet of God's only begotten son I'm humbled but at the same time I feel terrified Crown of thorns on his head Ain't no fire in His eyes And to make sure that He's dead I see Him bleeding from His side Then it hit me I'm made in God's image Why do I feel so blind? I crucified Jesus I was there on that day I told them "Hang Him on that tree!" I told them "Put Him on display!" I'm crushed under weight All the sudden my dismay is lifted Raised up my head and told me it's okay Then He looked me in my eyes and told me that I'm forgiven Touched the coal to my lip and sent me on a mission [Hook: Christon Gray] [Verse 3: Alex Faith] The clouds open up and I see Him He's standing with the saints And since that first day that I seen Him Things ain't been the same Life has so much meaning now Purpose flowing through my veins We call ourselves kings Only here to be affecting change I love my city and I love my people And I know they got a problem with sitting under that steeple But God will not be mocked And we were made for way more than this Worshipping women's bodies, tall rims, and nice whips Elevate success to how much is in our salary Broadcasted on the airways We're claiming fallacies That if we get to where they at That means we have it all Always chasing something more Can't we see we're bound to fall? I tell you from experience, that thirst is never gratified And on that day that I was at His feet Wrath was satisfied I believed the lies but now I'm resting in His arms He made a promise to me I just responded to the call [Hook: Christon Gray] [Bridge] You made it at last [x2] I know it was a struggle but I love and you made it at last
