Forgiveness

It's all about
 Oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh (one love, one love) (check out the story)
 Uh, yeah
 It's all about
 Forgive us all
 Uh, I see the rain, it's in the sky
 I see the pain, it's in the eyes
 Just a man prone to minimize
 At midnight, I can hear the bitter cries (love)
 Love and hate is thinner line
 I see you swallowing your pride to pretend it's fine
 I wish I would have seen this ahead of time
 Then I could avoid all the pain that you feel inside
 Can't sleep, odd memories
 Crying out to God like, would it ever leave?
 Lord, remember me, what's the remedy?
 I don't wanna feel like I'm sleeping with the enemy
 Uh, man, this whole thing is bittersweet
 I should forgive since Christ is forgiving me
 Yeah, at least I know this in my head
 But it's so much easier said
 Yeah, uh
 They say forgiveness is a choice
 Disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
 But, uh, Swallow my pride and follow my God 'til I finish this course
 Forgiveness is a choice
 Disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
 But, uh, I gotta Swallow my pride and follow my God 'til I finish this course
 It takes time, the minutes pass
 Erase the lines, you finish last
 But you keep submitting to what's in the past
 Going through the same cycle like a spinning glass
 Uh, and I know that it's a process
 Still trying to get past what your pops did
 Yeah, now you're feeling like a monster
 Explaining to the counselors everything your mom said
 They cuts you, King Sue
 God know everything you've been through
 How you been bruised, he's in tune
 But forgiveness is the healing for them wounds
 So you gotta let it go, let it go
 It'll kill you if you let it grow
 Unforgiveness is a poison, the choice is yours
 I'm just a voice here to let them know that
 Uh, they say forgiveness is a choice
 Disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
 But I got to swallow my pride and follow my God 'til I finish in this course
 They say forgiveness is a choice
 Disappointment and anger give bitterness a voice
 But, uh, I got to swallow my pride and follow my God 'til I finish in this course
 The very last time you hit me
 I vowed to never ever let anybody do that to me ever again
 He preached one thing but lived another
 And had the nerves to call me a hypocrite
 He said I was his favorite and this is how he shows he loves me?
 After being married for ten years, the test results come back positive
 She told me I was her only love and then I saw her with him
 I thought she was my friend, how could she do this to me?
 Forgive them? Never
 You say I can't forgive, a kid for kid
 They apologize, you can't accept
 Demand respect, imagine that
 When every time you sinned, God cancelled debt, yeah
 And every time he's forgiven you
 Every time that you ate a piece of forbidden fruit
 I know you've been abused, I ain't in your shoes
 But I know if you let him dig up the bitter roots
 And show 'em love, you'll overcome
 Loving enemies is part of growing up
 Wanna hold a grudge, I know it's tough
 But if Joseph the dreamer forgave his older bros
 And Christ forgives, and died for sins
 And likes to give life though we ain't got the right to live
 Then we should know how to waive our rights to win
 Whether we're gray or our life ends, gotta show them love
