GIMME ONE MORE CHANCE

Gimme one more chance

To try and make it right

Gimme one more go

Lemme see the light

I don’t know where I’m goin’

But I know where I been

Gimme one more chance

To wipe away my sin

Gimme one more song

Gimme one more poem

Lemme speak straight from my heart

I wanna go home

This ain’t no smoke and mirror

This ain’t no sham

Gimme one more chance

To show you who I am

 

The days and months and years go by

I try and try and try and try

But I can’t erase my youth

Undo my crime

I paid the price

And lost my prime

I took the hits

I done my time

I’ve learned there’s so much more

that I can give

 

So gimme one more chance

Before my mama’s time to go

Gimme one more chance

To watch my child grow

I’ve prayed, ‘n I’ve repented

I looked inside

Gimme one more chance

To redirect my pride

 

Gimme one more smile

Gimme one more tear

Lemme feel just what I feel

I wanna face my fear

The truth’s what sustains me

And sets me free

Gimme one more chance

To live and love and be

 

Gimme one more chance
