(Vers 1)
Yo I'm sinful, simple, never had potential
And what I've been through
Got me screwed in my mental
I blaze a pipe for the days and nights.
Full of pain and strife, i wanna take my life,
I'm nothing but a wayward wife
And I fully deserve to pay the price, I'm full of
Major vice, I ain't even worth a grain of rice
I never been happy, life is incredibly crappy
So I get to be nasty, with whomever will have me
Every night I try to twerk something,
Let the bump and grind, cause I'm bugging try to
Feel like I'm worth something
All of the sudden, I'm being pursued by this regular dude.
I'm thinking he wants a piece of lady peaches
But apparently he is a prude, it's scaring me.
Cause he's said he doesn't want anything from me but to marry me.
I'm not believing this dude, I'm fidgeting
But I'm keeping it cool, than he presented me with a ring
(Hook)
You made a covenant with me, I'll never know why
But I know you'll keep your promise
To love me (promise)
To keep me (promise)
To protect me (promise)
To never leave me (promise)
To accept me (promise)
To lead me
You're the promise keeper
(Vers 2)
Fundamentally I'm stuck in disbelief,
Cause I'm wonder if it could be
Who would enter in a covenant with me?
They bugging, that would be something to see,
But it's nothing to me I don't believe it,
I've never seen love to this degree
What's the catch? Why would anyone love a wretch?
And yes it's too good to be true. I don't trust him yet
So I'm still looking for love, the only way I know how,
It's so foul when it's cold out, no doubt
I'm back in these streets, tell my people, saying
I'm crazy, prostituting myself to whoever will take me
Giving myself to mad brothers passing by,
Chasing the false love, that doesn't satisfy.
Now I'm asking why, do I sabotage every plan, that God has for me?
Asking to stay in the house that would be blasphemy
So I'm fin to pack and leave my husband's house
After my deeds, I'm sure that he wants me out.
While I was packing he was filled with
Compassion and asking me stop it
He put my clothes back in the closet
He told me that the covenant he made
From abounded grace
Can never be taken nor shaking and that was a promise
Then I hit him back with a promise
I told him that as long as I'm living then, my soul,
My mind and especially my body wouldn't be
Given to man
And then I did it again
(Hook)
You made a covenant with me, I'll never know why,
But I know you'll keep your promise
To love me (promise)
To keep me (promise)
To protect me (promise)
To never leave me (promise)
To accept me (promise)
To lead me
You're the promise keeper
(Vers 3)
I wonder if I have enough mental stamina
To understand the love I've been given.
Being forgiven when I'm acting up
This is my shot at an amazing relationship
And I don't wanna take the trip away from him
And jack it up
I gotta be on my best behaviour,
Too this my blessed saviour,
I don't want him to see my wretched nature.
But he's too divine, he blew my mind quite a bit,
When he said he knows me fully
And loves me inspite of it
He told me, he knows me and have him really trivalent
But he chose me to love and pursue me in rightousness
This priceless gift this seems all to crazy
On top of that he said he'll never leave me or forsake me
Maybe I'm tripping but this is a sure, true commitment
He said to get me he even endured crucifixion.
And something's not the same to me,
I'm bugging, kinda strange to me
His love is changing me, now I'm wanting out of slavery
And I wanna be with my husband faithfully,
Because the way that he amazingly keeps the
Covenant that he made to me
And I hope you can relate to this metaphor, I can
Not take credit for this relationship, we're together for
No other reason, but Jesus is the covenant
Keeper, he's gonna seek ya, because he promised
To love you forever more
Why would he love us Primadonnas and evil piranhas,
Because he said he would, believe he'll be keeping his promise
(Hook)
You made a covenant with me, I'll never know why,
But I know you'll keep your promise
To love me (promise)
To keep me (promise)
To protect me (promise)
To never leave me (promise)
To accept me (promise)
To lead me
You're the promise keeper
"I will make a new covenant
Not like the covenant that I made with their fathers
My covenant that they broke,
Though I was their husband, declares the Lord.
For this is the covenant that I will make
I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts
And I will be their God, and they shall be my people
For I will forgive their iniquity,
And I will remember their sin no more."
