Jamie Messenger - Last Confession lyrics

[Intro] Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord [Verse 1] This will be my last confession This industry can leave harsh impressions I have little faith, forgive me for my past discretions But we live and learn that history and past are lessons The day this is work, the love of it dies A handful make it, the others will strive And hunger can drive hatred but such is just life I guess jealousy's the curse that the struggle inspires These critics seek to break and divide I know I'm bitter but my faith is divine Take it in stride, yeah I act like I hate it at times But I found love through this music and a place to reside For every friend, I have an eager opponent For every cent I spent on meagre components I gave something back so I don't feel the need for atonement Cause we all get our hands dirty when we're seizing the moment And we always took the lead, peers would follow And paid for everything that we cleared or borrowed If my son can benefit from what you see here, my sorrow's Justified, just that I might not be here tomorrow [Hook] When it rains, it pours, when you're soaked and the world Tries to f** with ya, trust in ya own and yourself My biggest fear's to die not knowing you well And I ain't afraid to die, I'm afraid of going to hell Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord [Verse 2] This will be my last confession Liberty can leave harsh impressions I have little faith, forgive me for my past discretions But we live and learn that history and past are lessons I've always played the hand I was given No exceptions here, humanity's driven You see all men are born equal, just the standard of living That differs between the Jewish, Adriatic and Christian I'm a logical man given to science Forgive me, I know religion inspires But too many have government and political ties And use state of the art warfare to bridge their divides There's hate crime wars on daytime talks And rape trials walk in state wide courts We don't pray no more, we only break thy laws So what this world don't give us, we gon' take by force Assertion, aggression's, murder then vengeance We treat peace like it's a term of acceptance Exception, we're not accepting if we're searching for penance And so these words are for my son so he can learn from my lessons [Hook] When it rains, it pours, when you're soaked and the world Tries to f** with ya, trust in ya own and yourself My biggest fear's to die not knowing you well And I ain't afraid to die, I'm afraid of going to hell Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord Oh Lord, oh Lord
