Trip Lee - Why Me lyrics

Look I was born like the rest, from Adam's curse ruined Straight born into d**h, with my back turned to Him The facts are confusing, I'm a wretched man But He took me, held my hand, and my d**h was banned He could have let my sins stay and my transgressions stand But I've been selected, elected, predestined man The question stands, look what I do to deserve To be blessed with His plan, made new, and reserved Nothing. I was like the rest, born attracted to d**h Nah we ain't said it, but its just what all our actions expressed 'Cause although I ain't wanna bother with the Lord He spared me When I needed a Father, like orphan Annie He took me in, clothed me in His righteousness Fed me the fruit of the Spirit, now my life is His Its all grace, I don't deserve this relationship 'Cause I ain't got nothing to give even my faith was a gift I don't deserve it, I'm worthless, but treated as perfect Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I sin more than I wanna, but my sins are a goner Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I was lost, but redeemed, then adopted and cleaned Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I was a scrub, but this God let me run with His squad Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? You can ask the question, why our God would let men Take His Son, make Him a naked one just to crush Him We could all inquire, why a God this high up Would stoop so low to scoop a whole crew from holding fire We can pontificate, sipping on lemonade Chilling 'cause our bill of sin was long, but dawg it was payed Or we can shrug it off, not even bug at all Off the fact we should have been attached to that rugged cross That's just what it cost, I'm moved by what it cost Refuse to be like dudes unmoved with thuggish walks They like to disregard this, they like to diss the God that's Coming back never to fade to black like Mr. Carter And it's a shame 'cause the scripture is plain With you and me Yahweh got beef like 50 and Game We're shifty as Cane, only Jesus emptied His veins So now you only got one choice out of a list full of names I don't deserve it, I'm worthless, but treated as perfect Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I sin more than I wanna, but my sins are a goner Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I was lost, but redeemed, then adopted and cleaned Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I was a scrub, but this God let me run with His squad Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? It's truly His grace that did it all, His righteous mercy Prepared beforehand for glory? Nah I ain't worthy He treated Christ like me and He gave Him d**h He's treating me like Christ man, He gave me breath I could have easily been one that feening for sin That's leading me in to d**h and catch heat in the end But He chose me, He showed me, He ordered my steps Man what a privilege to be one of the Lord's elect If it wasn't for you Trip, I wouldn't be tripping on this 'Cause we'll get about as far as a car sitting on bricks 'Cause why He did it was... Ah forget it I don't know why, I ain't shy I'll admit it So Trip, I don't even question it So Ill go on and rest in this for sin I was in union But now I'm free like a Russian is Now I trust in this [Jesus], now the lesson is Run hard for God to a beat like a percussion is I don't deserve it, I'm worthless, but treated as perfect Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I sin more than I wanna, but my sins are a goner Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I was lost, but redeemed, then adopted and cleaned Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? I was a scrub, but this God let me run with His squad Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me?
