Philemon

Yo Philemon listen close I got news to send
From the prison walls I'm writing like a true good friend 
This ain't just a letter this is truth we lend 
Forgiveness is the message let the feud just end
Onesimus yo he's no longer the same 
From a runaway servant to a name untamed 
Take him back not as less but kin reclaimed 
We all fam under Christ no divide remains 
Man's flaws they're heavy but grace is thick 
You hold the power to forgive that's the holy trick
Paul's pen writes the plea that's eternally slick 
Redeem reconcile man it's quick real quick 
God above is the author and the story is real
He mends the gap crushes hate with the love we feel
Take the hand of a brother let the wounds all heal
That's the gospel in action that's the ultimate deal 
Let it go let it flow let the chains be undone
All the battles that you fought now the war is won
It's a message straight from heaven brighter than the sun
Grace and love stitch it up til we're all as one
Lines of chains but hearts unhooked 
Paul's letter got the earth shook
To Philemon about the runaway look
Grace in forgiveness more than a book 
Onesimus ran but now he's back 
Not as a slave but with the pact 
A brother in Christ no strings attached 
A new family bond mismatched 
Can you hear the echoes shout
Mercy's louder than the doubt
No debt too big let's work it out
Freedoms whisper on the route
Paul says love jumps the lines 
In old traditions it redefines
A house of hope it brightly shines 
In peace and grace the soul aligns
Let it go let mercy fly
Bonds are broken reach the sky
Hands on hope don't question why
Love rebuilds what hate can't try
