01. I Can

Looking on the sad times, the guilt and all the shame

I have learned to submit my eisting hurts and !ains

"ll the grie# I$ve learned to set aside

$Cause I am, I am, I am, I am

%eeling underooted #eeling undermined

Can this gra&e o# 'od &over me this time

hen I #eel the !ain I kno* *hy I #eel strange

hen I hear the rooster &ro* I am ashamed

+esus on the &ross and this &ross u!on my ba&k

I have learned to submit then I *hine about my la&k

Sometimes I dro! my &ross, deserve a little rest

hat$s *hen I run to you and I nail your #eet and your *rist

I$m #eeling underooted #eeling undermined

Can this gra&e o# 'od &over me this time

-o you really love my soul, even a#ter I hated you

-o you really kno* my name, &an I really &ome to you

-o you really kno* my name, &an I really &ome to youI &an, I don$t &are i# the rooster &ro*s

o one &an take your !la&e

"nd there is no other

%orever yours and yours alone

I get do*n on my knees

%eel your love *ash over me

here *ill never be another

2ou$re the only one #orever

"nd you kno* I$m yours alone

(John '. Cooper)

Behind the Song:

$I am really e&ited about this song, *hi&h is !robably the most overtly Christian song on the



album. I think %orgivenM is a very ho!e#ul song, and even though itJs not the #irst time a song

has been *ritten on the sube&t, it strikes a balan&e bet*een being very *orshi! oriented and

honest as *ell. his is a song about letting yoursel# or someone else do*n, but #inding the

!o*er to not beat yoursel# u! over it and to #ind &losure *ith the !erson you hurt.$ ? +ohn Coo!er

10. Sometimes

Sometimes *hen I lie

Behind the Song:GIJd say this is !robably the darkest song on the re&ord, but a lot o# !eo!le IJve !layed it #or #ind it



strangely thera!euti&. IJm not sure *hy it makes them #eel better sin&e itJs so dark, but maybe

thereJs a relatable as!e&t to it. :asi&ally itJs saying there are times you donJt like yoursel# and

times *hen you donJt do the right thing, even i# youJre trying to be a better !erson dee! do*n

inside.G ? +ohn Coo!er (Skillet)

gist o# regret *here you *ish you had done things di##erently and it &ould be about

mourning the loss o# someone *ho died or a relationshi!. It seems sad, but itJs

strangely ho!e#ul be&ause it gives o## the idea that you &an &hange your li#e right here

and no* N you have been given a se&ond &han&e so you &an remember to live and

love *ith no regrets.G ? +ohn Coo!er (Skillet)
