Rocky "ROC" VanDergriff - Perspective of a Sinner [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Verse 1:
Struggling with my faith, filled to the brim with pride. Tempted by worldly darkness, I got lust in my eyes. You’ve called me by name, but I’m too deaf to hear the sound. Like the walls of Jericho, my world keeping tumbling down. I can’t summarize, there’s just so much going wrong. Standing on holy ground, and I still got my shoes on. Seems like falling away is easy as 123, so tell me why on earth would you wanna die for someone like me? I’ve blasphemed you, cursed you out, and mocked your great power. I’m such a Nimrod, and I keeping building up my tower. And yet it seems like no matter what I do, your holy light keeps finding a way to shine on through. If sinfulness is prison, then I’m rotting in a cell. Craving the light of heaven, dreading the wrath of hell. There’s so much I would change if I was able to rewind. I just pray that when you come back, I won’t get left behind

Perspective of a sinner


Verse 2:
Sometimes, I just feel like giving in. Put me on a billboard, I'm the poster boy for sin. Man, what am I supposed to do? I keep telling myself I'm all good, but I know it ain't true. I'm a liar and a cheater, I'm fit to be forsaken, my life is one big mess and I'm in need of some saving. I need to find a way to keep from going down this road, cuz I'm a ticking time bomb and I don't know when I'll explode. Dear God, please protect me from myself, or better yet, prevent me from hurting somebody else. Cuz I honestly don't know how much more that I can take. Will I walk the streets of gold, or will I end up in the lake? I'm calling out to you, please just give me a sign, something to let me know that it'll all be fine. I'm calling out to you, please just give me a sign, something to let me know that it'll all be fine
