[Chorus: Mia Fieldes]

When I was dead, revived my soul

Takes the broken makes them whole

Takes the bound makes them free

Takes the weak and makes them strong

All of my sins been erased

He has lifted my disgrace

I'm overjoyed, overjoyed

That Jesus would make me whole


[Verse 1: Da' T.R.U.T.H]

I ain't tryin' to be hot just tryin' to be relevant

I ain't a candle I ain't trying to wax eloquent

I'm runnin' from my life, now I'm tryin' to fight hard

These ain't just lyrics but a contrite heart

Yeah, feeling it like the heat in the summer

We know better but the flesh be keeping us running

Back the leeks and onions that's the recent discovered

If it's in the dark it's impossible to keep secrets covered

Who would have known that my indiscretions would reach my cousins

I apologize to Mimi my niece and others

Should have been able to trust but I breached the covenant

I knew you all before you was able to reach the cupboard

Now when I preached in public it's all out the window

Cause sin contradicted a lot of what my pen wrote

Especially when I wrote an open book

Apparently there was something in me I overlooked


[Chorus: Mia Fieldes]

When I was dead, revived my soul

Takes the broken makes them whole

Takes the bound makes them free

Takes the weak and makes them strong

All of my sins been erased

He has lifted my disgrace

I'm overjoyed, overjoyed

That Jesus would make me whole


[Verse 2: Da' T.R.U.T.H]

Check my records I got some Pryors like Harlem Knights

I need Jesus David's son like a Harley bike

Wasn't hardly right what I did was wrong

And it ticks me off and it sets me off

And I hate the consequences cause death results

But I know I reap what I sow like Betsy Ross

He ain't tempt me but He let me fall

Now I carry all that pain, sin left me scarred

He let me fall but He ain't let me go

And now I wouldn't stray, sin left me broke

Yeah, the life in me ain't no crystal stair

But I keep climbing cause the diamond is crystal clear

At times I'm quiet, I get a chair

Sit and stare think about the ways that sin affected my fiscal year

Yeah, the tide is turning now, shifting gears

Though I'm weak; He's given strength in the midst of tears


[Chorus: Mia Fieldes]

When I was dead, revived my soul

Takes the broken makes them whole

Takes the bound makes them free

Takes the weak and makes them strong

All of my sins been erased

He has lifted my disgrace

I'm overjoyed, overjoyed

That Jesus would make me whole


[Verse 3: Da' T.R.U.T.H]

Felt dead and lonely

Only God knows

That Jesus came to breathe life on my dry bones

I know a lot, knowing a lot's not wrong

But now it's all about application like the iPhone

Yeah, I got hang-ups like dial tones

Yeah, but Jesus hung up and died so

No condemnation, that's my consolation

Am I still guilty? Not a conversation

Now I just wanna proclaim it in the congregation

God is good and Doctor Jesus got a lot of patience

Yeah, I'm on the operating table, heart palpitate, look at what the bride is shaping

God I thank the body, cause y'all came behind me

When my foot slipped and I sank in the valley

Something supernatural happened when the saints rallied

My true friends held me up like a bank robbery

And that's foolproof, I can't even front like a gold tooth

I hate what I had to go through, but I love the fact that I got to know you

So what you are witnessing now is the whole truth


[Chorus: Mia Fieldes]

When I was dead, revived my soul

Takes the broken makes them whole

Takes the bound makes them free

Takes the weak and makes them strong

All of my sins been erased

He has lifted my disgrace

I'm overjoyed, overjoyed

That Jesus would make me whole
