[Intro: TobyMac]
'Cause we all make mistakes sometimes
And we all step across that line
But nothing's sweeter than the day we find, we find...

[Verse 1: TobyMac]
It's hangin' over him like the clouds of Seattle
And rainin' on his swag, fallin' deeper in the saddle
It's written on his face, he don't have to speak a sound
Somebody call the Five-0, we got a man down

[Pre-Chorus: TobyMac]
Now you can go and play it like you're all rock and roll
But guilt does a job on each and every man's soul
And when your head hits the pillow at the nightfall
You can bet your life that it's gonna be a fight, y'all

[Chorus: TobyMac]
'Cause we all make mistakes sometimes
And we've all stepped across that line
But nothing's sweeter than the day we find
Forgiveness (forgiveness), forgiveness (forgiveness)
And we all stumble and we fall
Bridges burn in the heat of it all
But nothing's sweeter than the day
Sweeter than the day we call

[Post-Chorus: TobyMac, Lecrae]
Out for forgiveness (Forgiveness)
We all need, we all need
We all need forgiveness (Forgiveness)
We all need, we all need
Mr. Lecrae (uh)

[Verse 2: Lecrae]
My momma told me what I would be in for
If I kept all this anger inside of me pent up
My heart been broken, my wounds been open
And I don't know if I can hear "I'm sorry" being spoken
But those forgiven much should be quicker to give it
And God forgave me for it all, Jesus bled forgiveness
So when the stones fly, and they aimed at you
Just say, "Forgive 'em, Father, they know not what they do"

[Pre-Chorus: TobyMac, TobyMac & Nirva Ready]
You can go and play it like you're all rock and roll
But guilt does a job on each and every man's soul
And when your head hits the pillow at the nightfall
You can bet your life that it's gonna be a fight, y'all

[Chorus: TobyMac]
Cause we all make mistakes sometimes
And we've all stepped across that line
But nothing's sweeter than the day we find
Forgiveness (forgiveness), forgiveness (forgiveness)
And we all stumble and we fall
Bridges burn in the heat of it all
But nothing's sweeter than the day
Sweeter than the day we call

[Post-Chorus: TobyMac, Lecrae]
Out for forgiveness (Woo, uh, you know we need that)
(That, that, you know we need that) Forgiveness
(That, that, you know we need that)
(That, yeah, let's talk to 'em)

[Bridge: TobyMac]
No matter how lost you are
You're not that far, you're not too far (Forgiveness)
No matter how hurt you are
You're not that far, you're not too far (Forgiveness)
No matter how wrong you are
You're not that far, you're not too far (Forgiveness)
No matter who you are
You're not that far, you're not too far

From forgiveness (Oh, oh)
Ask for forgiveness (Oh, oh, oh)

[Chorus: TobyMac]
Cause we all make mistakes sometimes (Sometimes)
And we've all stepped across that line (Crossed that line)
But nothing's sweeter than the day we find
Forgiveness (forgiveness), forgiveness (forgiveness)
And we all stumble and we fall
Bridges burn in the heat of it all
But nothing's sweeter than the day
Sweeter than the day we call

[Post-Chorus: TobyMac]
Out for forgiveness (Forgiveness)
We all need, we all need
We all need forgiveness (Forgiveness)
We all need, we all need

[Outro: TobyMac, Lecrae]
No matter how lost you are
We all need (Forgiveness)
No matter how hurt you are (Uh-huh)
We all need (Forgiveness, forgiveness) (Forgiveness)
And no matter how wrong you are
You're not that far, you're not too far (Forgiveness)
No matter who you are (Woo)
You're not too far, you're not too far

We all need (You know we, you know we)
Forgiveness, forgiveness (We all need) (Forgiveness)
We all need (Uh, yeah, you know we, you know)
Forgiveness, forgiveness (We all need) (We all need)
We all need (We do)
Forgiveness, forgiveness (You know we, you know we, we all need) (Forgiveness)
We all need (Come on)
Forgiveness, forgiveness (Yeah)

TobyMac

Toby McKeehan, better known by his stage name, TobyMac (stylized as tobyMac), is arguably the pioneer of Christian hip-hop. In the late ‘80s, Toby was better known from the hip-hop trio dc Talk; consisting of McKeehan, Michael Tait (formerly of Tait, currently of Newsboys) and Kevin Max (formerly of Audio Adrenaline). The group went separate ways to pursue their solo careers. Toby has since then released seven studio albums, four remix albums, two live albums (with video), two Christmas albums, and one collaboration album. In 1994, tobyMac founded Gotee Records where he helps produce for artists like Finding Favour, Ryan Stevenson, Hollyn, and Aaron Cole.
