Seven sins seven nights
Seven chances to make it right
They say forgive but I hold tight
Grudges feel like a street fight
The weights heavy the heart's colder
Stone on stone I'm the boulder
Stacking pain on my own shoulder
Till it breaks me when I'm older
They say seventy times seven but my prides a loaded weapon
How can I let go of my lesson
Forgive your brother they preach that line
But what about the scars they leave behind
A slap on the face a twist of the knife
Am I the fool to let it slide twice
Street code says hold your own
But mercy's a seed I've never grown
Gotta bury the hate make peace my throne
But the battles within I fight alone
Forgiveness ain't weak it's armor you wear
Cuts through the anger clears the air
But my prides a shadow always there
Seventy times I'm stuck in despair
Seventy times seventy times seven
I'm counting the cost but they say it's heaven
Do I release it or keep on stressing
Seventy times that's my confession
Seventy times seven
Seventy times seven
Me dijeron perdona yo dije otra vez
Setenta veces siete que clase de test
El orgullo me grita pero el alma responde
Es un río de gracia que nunca se esconde
En la calle me aprendí a contar los pecados
Pero en su libro mis errores borrados
Un acto tan simple un peso tan leve
Pero cuesta soltarlo setenta veces siete
Me miro el espejo y veo mis cadenas
Perdonar es romperlas aunque quema las venas
No es por ellos es por mi paz
El odio me ata pero el perdón me da más
En la esquina murmuran por que tan callado
Porque cargo un secreto que me tiene sanado
No es débil el que suelta ni fuerte el que retiene
Setenta veces siete el corazón mantiene
Setenta veces siete lo tengo que intentar
Es la cuenta infinita que me hace liberar
Setenta veces siete la llave de amar
Aunque duele por dentro lo tengo que lograr
Setenta veces siete
Setenta veces siete
You wronged me once you wronged me twice
I built a wall yeah paid the price
Brick by brick my anger grew
But what's the cost of holding you
My fists are clenched my heart is sore
How many times can I forgive more
They say let go they say move on
But pain feels right when trust is gone
I thought it made me strong to stay mad
But the weights too heavy it's driving me bad
Grudges stack like bricks in my chest
But I'm tearing them down it's a holy test
I'm no saint just a soul in the grind
Trying to find peace in a world unkind
I see the face of the ones I despise
But the fire in my eyes is burning me alive
Forgiveness ain't weak it's the hardest fight
Seventy times seven I'll make it right
Seventy times seven I'm counting the scars
Seventy times seven it's written in the stars
Not for them but for me the chains gotta break
Seventy times seven forgiveness I'll take
Seventy times seven
Seventy times seven
