Yeah


[Verse 1]

Can you imagine it? Hanging there, bleeding to death, wheezing for breath

Your stomach hurts cause you got beat in the chest

You all bloody from your feet to your head

From the look of things you would think he'd be dead

But you're not, cause you gotta finish the work

Every second's like a minute, every minute it hurts

You screaming in pain, "Oh God", screaming His name

"Why have you forsaken me? This is the reason I came"

You cry inside but you can't cry from your eyes

'cause your face is so swole that it's drivin you blind

Your back aches, cause pressure is applied to your spine

When you press up on your feet cause you tryin' to climb

Up the cross just to get a gasp of air

And meanwhile everybody laughs and cheers

It's only been ten minutes but it feels like half a year

The Roman soldiers grab and tear

At your clothes leaving your privates exposed, humiliated is how you die for the throne

And they witness, at the sight of your death

And they watch you, as you fightin' for breath

Every insult feels like a knife in your chest

And blood drips down your neck from the spikes in your head

The crown of thorns, somebody sound the horn cause the

Curtain from the temple yo they found it torn

That means salvation's free, He paid the fee

I once was blind, but now he made me see

I went from peewee to playing in the major leagues

The temple was destroyed in one day but raised in three


[Hook]

Could you walk in his shoes, drink from his cup?

He opened up his arms like "I love you this much"

Could you do what He did, die so that we live

If you could then your name is Jesus

Could you walk in his shoes, drink from his cup?

He opened up his arms like "I love you this much"

Could you do what He did, die so that we live

If you could then your name is Jesus


[Verse 2]

Can you imagine it? Gettin' hit in the jaw

With people standing over you yelling "Come on, pick up the cross!"

They take a stick and strike you over the head, over and over and over again

They beat your down, they smile when they see you frown

They spit in your face, laugh as you bleed in the ground

You try to get up but you can barely walk

So they force another man to carry your cross

You've been condemned, all you did is give to men

You live for them, but they would rather live for sin

You never fought back, but you get whipped again

So hard that it rips your skin

Betrayed by the kiss of a friend

Slain by the fists of men

On a scale of 1-5 the pain gets a 10

But you haven't even felt that have you? Felt the wrath

Until you felt the cross rub against your back

Thoughts of life and death are runnin' through your mind

And splinters from the wood are runnin' through your spine

It's worse than any story in The New York Times

They found you guilty and never even knew your crime

Every woman and man is dead they stand and stare and watch as you hang like a chandelier

Can you bear the nails in both your legs both your arms

Even though you know they wrong?

Can you imagine it? That's why I wrote this song, you can laugh but it's you that the joke is on


[Hook]

Could you walk in his shoes, drink from his cup?

He opened up his arms like "I love you this much"

Could you do what He did, die so that we live

If you could then your name is Jesus

Could you walk in his shoes, drink from his cup?

He opened up his arms like "I love you this much"

Could you do what He did, die so that we live

If you could then your name is Jesus


[Verse 3]

They drove nails through his hands, you could see the blood squirt

Now I know what they mean when they say that "love hurts"

Imagine torture, only this is much worse

Just the thought makes me wanna hit the ground and hug dirt

Why'd he do it for me? I wouldn'ta done it for him

I'm not a righteous man, matter of fact I'm nothing but sin

I'm not clean, I've got dirt stuck to my skin

And it's like I'm proud of it so I cuss and I grin!

I said "I hate you!" And he told me that he loved me

I stabbed him in his back and he turned around and hugged me

They beat him, when instead they should've mugged me

Should've left me on the cross and watch the blood leak

My tongue speaks, all I do is curse and lie

That's why I deserve to die! Go to Hell

Man I should be the first to fry but they gave him the blame like he was worse than I!

Worse than he! Worse than she! Straight up cold blooded murder in the first degree

You ain't got to go to go to church to believe or 'cause you heard it from me

Just close your eyes, think of the murderous scene


[Hook]

Could you walk in his shoes, drink from his cup?

He opened up his arms like "I love you this much"

Could you do what He did, die so that we live

If you could then your name is Jesus

Could you walk in his shoes, drink from his cup?

He opened up his arms like "I love you this much"

Could you do what He did, die so that we live

If you could then your name is Jesus
