New Reality - Lecrae, Chinua Hawk

Dear you, Yeah you

The person listenin'

It’s God usin' me, tryna' get your attention, yeah

See, He remembers the first day that He made you

Moldin' your lungs for the breath that He gave you

Not to mention the day He saved you

Or when He opened your eyes by the Spirit, Christ was raised through

Did I mention that He forgave you?

And had His flesh ripped off for the sin you was a slave to?

Now it seems you’re too far gone

You wanna turn back, but you’re not sure if you’ll be welcome home

So you figure you’ll just leave it alone

But you’re addicted to yourself, we both know you can’t see it alone

This is an intervention, Jesus intervened

He intercedes on behalf of a sinner’s deeds

This is an intervention, because the Lord hurts

Before it gets worse, stomach another verse

Most times I’m paying no attention

Lose my direction

All I chase is vanity

I forget I’ve been forgiven

Your love I’ve been given

Your grace on me lavishly

You were born on earth

On my cross You died for me (cross you died)

Forgive my depravity

Lord You are my reality

Yeah

Cold water we drink

Hot water we cook

But lukewarm does nothin' it just sits and it looks

And that’s you, imagine these as the words of Christ

I remember you love Me, I remember your light

It used to shine bright, but now it’s so dim

It used to be about Us, but now its 'bout them

You can’t win playin' heart games

But I love you even when your lights off in your dark shame

When you lay down and profane Me

Or when your bloodstream contains the things that would defain me

When nobody knows that you claim Me

Or when you mess your life up, get mad, and wanna blame Me

I still want you back

I won’t punish you

I took that on the cross because I wanted you

I might discipline and chastise

But if you got what you deserve you’d be in hell with other bad guys

You made it this far

And thats a big move

But your addiction is hurtin' your other friends too

Some of 'em miss you

Some of 'em dissed you

But they was hurtin', strugglin' to forgive you

And they hated how addiction got the best of you

Chose a lie when God promised the best for you

If you realize you livin' in sin

Just confess and realize you’re forgiven of sin
