Why Me ( feat. Ambassador)

Verse 1:

Look I was born like the rest, from Adam's curse ruined

Straight born into death, with my back turned to Him

The facts are confusing, I'm a wretched man

But He took me, held my hand, and my death 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 death

Nah we ain't said it, but it's 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

It's all grace, I don't deserve this relationship

'Cause I ain't got nothing to give even my faith was a gift

Hook:

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?

Ambassador:

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

Trip:

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 death

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 death 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

:Ambassador:

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 I'll 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
