This one's a little personal.
This one goes out to my uncle. God bless you.
What's up Uncle Tim yo check it out it's the real me
The one you used to tease and call crusty and little Sealey
I hear your having hard times maybe even doing lines
But remember Jesus got ya back cause I know He got mine
When I heard the news about you I had to sit down I put my face down
And prayed "please Lord again show him the thorned crown"
The one that died for me and you was beaten black and blue
You know it's true believe me no matter what you do He still loves you
I look up in the sky and ask why why's it gotta be like this I can't lie I ask why all of the time and it's killing me inside
I praise God for giving His son's life for you and I
I gotta say it though I thought you were on the narrow path
You know the one that was paved for us when Jesus faced the wrath
I remember thinking my Lord this man has changed
From a drunken bum smokin' crack to callin' out Jesus name
I can't forget the way I felt to hear that you were in church
All that prayin' by ya moms and all didn't go unheard
I'm tellin' you uncks the spirits willing but the flesh is weak
Get on your knees and pray to God to get ya back on your feet
Now I love you Uncle Tim I guess that's all I can say
And even before you hear this song I hope you're changing your ways
I'm not trying to say your worthless or I'm better than you
Cause you and I both know that I've been down that road too
Psalms 85:6 yeah go ahead and pick The Book up
Now don't get scared I know you know Christ got the hook up
He done told ya that He's the one that'll always be there
And when you look around and He aint there He aint the one that moved anywhere
I look up in the sky and ask why why's it gotta be like this I can't lie I ask why all of the time and it's killing me inside
I praise God for giving His son's life for you and I
Now I know you know we got a God that can never fail
A God that hung up on the cross just by some rusty iron nails
Remember Uncle Tim that Christ ain't just another friend
He's the one who was crucified, died was buried and rose again
The Great I Am the one and only Slain Lamb
The perfect sacrifice for the life we need to live man
Please know through me God wrote this song for you
He started a good work in you and trust me Tim He aint through
I look up in the sky and ask why why's it gotta be like this I can't lie I ask why all of the time and it's killing me inside
I praise God for giving His son's life for you and I
