I was riding in my car one day

in the express lane rollin on the freeway

and suddenly the phone rings then I

reached down beside me then i look

on the floor felt on the backseat

see I was drinking while I was driving

never thinking bout what I was doing

I turned around and before i knew it

here comes this truck now



Doctor said don't think he gonna make it

family said make the funeral arrangements

unplugg the machine he's gone now

then told my wife to be strong now

then a small voice said until me

if you promise to stop drinking

I surrenered on that day

now for ten year's i've been straight



You saved me 4x

Gave me a second chance

You saved me 3x

You saved me



Now i've been sitting in this chair

waiting on the phone to ring

praying up to god that someone will call

me with a job opening

cause it's been so hard for me

month to month struggling to eat

but still there was no answer

I stop beleiving in his word and

got so mad at him and

when somebody said god's good

i just laugh at 'em



But in the nick of time his blessing

rain on me

by his grace the phone ring

a lady said were hiring and

that's when I knew



You saved me 4x



Now i was 18 out there on the block

selling drugs

with a gun at my waist

and for people I had no love

see the streets was my home

family and friends were all gone

had no one to trust

and deep inside i was all alone

and a deal went bad one day

and it was enough to pause me

I was shot 4 times and before i

knew it I was on my knees



Blood pushin out my body

my heart's beating faster don't know what i'm gonna do

I donc
