OLD WAYS Lyrics by Deir Deval

2023

[Chorus]
Made new, stuck in the old ways
Living imperfect my forte
Why I'm going back to the old days
I already know this ain't okay
How I keep on sinning if I been saved
I just want to listen to the sensei
Said that I knew Him since sixth grade
But I would just do what my sin say

[Verse]
Taking it back, rewind the clock
I was so reckless, breaking the law
Finding myself, it made me lost
I wasn't thinking bout looking to God
Matter fact I wasn't thinking at all
Ain't have a need to while smoking that
All the time did the same thing
Chasing a high, spitting on beats
That is what I knew as peace, that was my life
I was just searching for fortune and lights
Using my talents for selfish desires
It was just myself and I
God hadn't opened my eyes
But now that I see
I don't want nothing but He
I had to give up all me
That was a small sacrifice, nothing compared to the King
He came to earth and He lowered His worth
And He lived in all righteousness but He still died as if
He was a guilty man
I hope that you feel me man
He died so we could be saved
Came back to life in three days
Don't be deceived homie if you believe, you going to be free
Free from the wrath we deserving
Our sin is what earned it
But we have been purchased
Set free by the blood
God don't care what you was
He just care that you come
Leave the rest to above
Uh, leave the rest to above

[Chorus]
Made new, stuck in the old ways
Living imperfect my forte
Why I'm going back to the old days
I already know this ain't okay
How I keep on sinning if I been saved
I just wanna listen to the sensei
Said that I knew Him since sixth grade
But I would just do what my sin say

[Verse]
But now that I'm living it
Why am I giving in
Sin come if you let it in
And sometimes I'm wrestling
I don't like the flesh I'm in
I don't wanna do this
Ain't tryna be Judas
Lord help me get through this
Temptation calling I don't want to pick up
That's what I'm tryna get rid of
Sin is the reason that God and I split up
That is why Jesus had rizzup
Father God I wanna bring You the glory
I want to tell them Your story
Do it for you I ain't doing it for me
Imma spit truth till I'm over 40
Oh, well
Some say that they're saved, but
Ain't living life changed, what
No works but have faith
Man go and read James
Chapter two and verse eighteen
Matter fact read the whole thing
Tired of seeing us posing
