Ducking and dodging one time
I thought this was my last crime
Remember I just got saved last Sunday
Now I'm running I'm running, I'm running for my freedom
I'm praying please take me away with rhyme and reason
I'm pleading, that I'll never sin anymore
WAIT A MINUTE! I'm lying well I try to take it slow
Red and blue lights reflecting off of my backside
Them homies who were riding they won't even let me inside
Oh man they gaining nothing in me says surrender
But I hear a voice drowning out the sound saying surrender
Get down on your knees and let me make a change in you
I sent my son to die upon the cross in place of you
That's real talk, that's death before dishonor
Cause Jesus hung and died and rose to shape me like a potter
Got a taste of living water
My life won't take me farther
So Jesus have your way I'm your son your my father
You only live One Time
Jesus died for me One Time
Will you choose to duck and dodge the One Time
I think I choose to live for God One Time
You only live One Time
Jesus died for me One Time
Will I choose to duck and dodge the One Time
I think I choose to live for Christ One Time
Hold up, years past more like 8 years to be exact
Left behind a daughter and a son but I'm comeback
The result... Man so sad without a male figure
My son adopted life of gangs, finger on the trigga
Entrapped in the life that defined my past
It's like it's déjà Vu as I see my little man
Going down the same ol' path like his so called dad
Yeah I can say that about myself, I'm humbled and
It's true, can a man raise his kids behind bars
Can a man support his own by shooting up cars
Naw that's just the nature of a dead end life
I'm pleading to you son this life ain't living right
(Dad, you were never there)
Son I know I know I've failed you
But take my word, don't follow my footsteps...
Hold on WATCH OUT SON
