Текст песни I Choose Love - Bryann T

Counterfeit friendships, snakes that give you handshakes
Look at the eye-contact and the face your man makes
Devil is grim, plotting evil and your downfall
Follow you home, then later come make a house call
Never been cleansed by the love of God, sowing evil though
But King Tut ain′t got nothing on my King Jesus though
I know you're selfish, shady, shiesty, and sneaky
I know you hate me, it′s in your eyes when you see me
I gotta love you, regardless if it ain't easy
I won't allow Satan′s darkness just to defeat me
I try my best to keep my peace as much as possible
It can be peaceful between us, I think it′s possible
I get frustrated and angry sometimes, I'm human bruh
Just understand I won′t let my anger consume me
If I can forgive the ones who killed my brother for real
Then I can forgive whoever, so hatred can disappear

I forgive 'em, I forgive ′em, let us pray
They don't know what they′ve done, even if they did it's okay
I forgive 'em, I forgive ′em, let it be
Please don′t hold this against them, remember I wish them peace
I forgive 'em, I forgive ′em, bless their hearts
'Cause I refuse to live harsh with a hardened heart
I forgive ′em, it's exactly what God wants
It′s only right that I do what my Father wants
I forgive

They smiled in my face
I got stabbed in my back
It's like they laughed at my tears, God
They just left me there for dead
My anger grew great
I had all of this hate
But you took all my hate
Now I choose to love them all instead

Learn how to live again, we've been dead for so long
Learn how to love again, unforgiveness is wrong
Learn how to trust again, why you acting so stiff?
Boy you′re too old for your temper tantrums and fits
I know you′re mad and hate the world for how they did you
But if you don't learn how to
Forgive them, how is God gonna forgive you?
That′s like you drinking some poison, but expect for them to die
Bitterness will destroy you if you let it grow inside
I get it fam, they hurt you and you didn't deserve it
And all you did was show them love, man, and they did you so dirty
Even Jesus though had to carry that burden
He was bullied, He was beaten, He was brutally murdered
He understands your pain, your emotions and feelings
Everything that you′ve been feeling, He relates to your feelings
It was His own people that killed
Him, man, they caused so much affliction
And even through it all He still said, 'God, I forgive them′
If He could do it, you can do it man, there's no excuse
Holy Spirit, fill our hearts up with Your love and truth
And teach us how we're to treat others when they do us wrong
And love each other even when they′re right and when they′re wrong

Yeah, I forgive 'em, let us pray
They don′t know what they've done, even if they did it′s okay
I forgive 'em, I forgive ′em, let it be
Please don't hold this against them, remember I wish them peace
I forgive 'em, I forgive ′em, bless their hearts
′Cause I refuse to live harsh with a hardened heart
I forgive 'em, it′s exactly what God wants
It's only right that I do what my Father wants
I forgive

They smiled in my face
I got stabbed in my back
It′s like they laughed at my tears, God
They just left me there for dead
My anger grew great
I had all of this hate
But you took all my hate
Now I choose to love them all instead
