Sinner

Original

Yeah.

Gave you the best pieces of me, told you hold that forever.

I ain't tryna reason with you now 'cause you should know better.

I noticed a pattern and now it is what it is. You did everything I told you not to, then did it again and again.

Now I can't hold it in or pretend.

You ain't been acting like a foe, not a friend to me. You acting like a friend to me. Ooh.

It's the ones you love that's gonna leave you hurt.

Make you fly then leave you in the dirt.

It's the ones you love that's gonna make you cry a river, cry.

Cry a river, cryin' river.

Turn into hard liquor. Oh, God, oh, God.

Deliver, please deliver this sinner I've been made into.

See, when you hurting, you gon' twist and you gon' turn and you gon' try to shift the blame to someone else to share the burden 'cause it's too heavy on your heart and you scared you gon' drown in it.

It's easier to stay than changing your surroundings. But I won't let someone's son turn me to someone I don't like.

I'ma take this pain you gave me and turn it into light.

I'ma take this pain you gave me and turn it into light.

I've been raised to face the rain, manifest the sunshine. I've been in the dark before, so I know how to shine in it.

You been out here chasin' rocks, you fumblin' a diamond and. . .

I can't hold it in and pretend. You ain't been acting like a foe, not a friend. Ooh.

It's the ones you love that's gonna leave you hurt.

Make you fly then leave you in the dirt. It's the ones you love that's gonna make you cry a river, cry.

Cry a river, cryin' river. Turn into hard liquor. Oh,

God, oh, God.

Deliver, please deliver this sinner I've been made into.
