What Is Redemption

Lyrics for What Is Redemption

Friendships are a living entity They do need time and attention And they certainly should not be taken for granted These days, those who are closest to me Know absolutely what I think and believe Problems are usually dealt with As soon as possible as they come up Forgiveness is given on both sides In generous scoops of affection I'm really happy to be able to say that There is nobody in my life now where something is unspoken Where something could rot and destroy us My friends are the greatest gift in my life What does redemption mean to you? This, this is not an easy question I don't know what redemption means Is... I think it's different for every person Hmm, to me, though It's, it's not, it's not guaranteed If you've hurt somebody Or you've let somebody down You can only be redeemed at their Their decision, it's their choice whether you're forgiven Whether you're redeemed or not It can only be, I think, attained through real hard and really, like Genuinely meant sorrow for your actions And a genuinely meant plea for forgiveness But it's truly up to that other person Whether they forgive you or not Whether you are redeemed or not And you can't force it Just because you want someone to forgive you Or you want to be seen in that Not even exalted But in the way you were seen before in that person's eyes It doesn't mean that they have to or that they will
