Forgive My Sins (feat. Mani Strings)

Forgive My Sins - Auburn Feat Mani Strings

(Auburn)

Now i been sittin here thinkin

There was a time I lived my life,wasn't depending on drinkin

My Mother calls me every day, just to see how I'm doin

Can't put emphasis on my struggle, cause my pride is still brewing

Look what this brew got me doin, these spirits growing, influencing me

I’m fluently sinning, as far as church I been truant

I know, I’m wrong

It’s been, so long

I can’t go on like this…

So I

Fall on my face and cry out “LORD please forgive me,

For using liquor to run away from the burdens YOU give me.

Over the years I’ve rode the fence and LORD I’ve grown so tired,

But you told me to whom much is given that much is required!

But LORD the pressures of this life? It put fear in my heart

And I’m afraid to claim your name then be a stumbling block. Guess that’s no different from placing your talent under a rock

But I don’t know what else to do I’m giving all that I got!

And now I’m thinking of a drink, just to get me though.

Instead of falling on my face, and talking to you.

Father GOD, just like Paul, yeah I delight in Your law,

I wanna make myself available to answer your call!”

(Mani Strings)

Forgive My Sins

For I know not what I do,

Father help me find the truth.

Forgive My Sins

For I know not what I do,

Father help me find the truth.

(Auburn)

And now I’m drunk and ashamed

I had just asked The LORD to take this, only got me to blame.

Put the key in the ignition ,drove away from the bar

I woke up, I realized

I had just crashed my car.

I call my friend I’m belligerent, speaking straight outta ignorance

Called Laniesa straight after, she spoke as if I was innocent

She said “Boo, where you at?”

I told her that “I don’t know!”

I look up, I realized, I barely missed that pole.

I open the door, my feet in the snow, not sure where to go I was so lost,

So broken down and so cold

So much in me that moment that I just wanted to cry

I could’ve been gone in the fire, crying, lifting my eyes!

Thought… this was it for me

He spared me once again, it was His gift to me

I cried from my soul,

My face to floor Im hollering “LORD I adore you!”

See something inside had clicked in me - hallelujah

Forgive My Sins

For I know not what I do,

Father help me find the truth.

Forgive My Sins

For I know not what I do,

Father help me find the truth.

(Auburn)

You loved me from the beginning,

And LORD I’m yearning to listen.

I know it’s not what I do but its the sin thats within me,

So LORD just take it all out. LORD get this taste out my mouth.

Restore me to the place you found me on the floor of my house.

In that room, eight years old…

Was with you, all alone

Crying out “Father GOD, can’t wait to get back home.”
