The Invasion (Hero)

Creation's groaning, lost their hope and feel they always closed in
Lots to cope with, on the ropes, wish they was in the open
This broken world is so dim, our souls are searching, groping
For one with hope to hold us close, and set goodness in motion
I remember growing up in
Dallas, I thought me and my close kin
Was more than straight, our folks was great, not broke that paper flowed in
Not boasting man, just saying in my brain
I didn't know then
That all went wrong, and it just can't go right like a broke pen
My mind was blind and cloaked in, but then that foolishness departed
I saw this thing's an ocean, and we just tryna swim real far but
But can't nobody float when we ain't got boats or no fins
We need a hero to go in, cause our solutions don't win
Education can't fix it, more dough just leads to more sin
Medicine is temporary, government seems so thin
With all these weighty problems, that ain't shrinking they just growing
Who's adequate to save us, how about
He knew no sin? [Chorus:]
Like a G5 yeah you rushed to rescue me
Took a cross in exchange for a crown to save me
You began the work and
I know you'll finish
And make all things right when you come back
Cause you're my hero, you already saved the day
Cause you're my hero, and
I know you're coming back for me [Verse 2:]
Follow the steps bro,
Adam sinned now we all dead so
We gotta sentence on our head like death row, everything is wrecked
All creation is a mess bro,
In the fullness of time, in steps the hero no red cloak,
He's Jesus
No flashing lights, glitz n glam, and no cameras
He came to serve needy folks, and point them to the answer
You see Him healing, feeding folks, and telling them the standard
Our most basic need is to be ransomed by
Jesus It has first place, yeah we separated in the worst ways
Even physically peep how the earth quakes
Separated socially, murder and the worst rapes
Even separated from ourselves, we in the worst state
It's so major, that's the reason that we need a
Savior Cause the root of needs is separation from
Creator Jesus came humbly to restore us to our maker
And later
He'll restore all that
He made bruh,
He's Jesus [Chorus] [Verse 3:]
God is not pleased man, it's clear that
His standards missed
The world is running rampant with, sin it's an abandonment
Man is feeling stranded, feeling hopeless since his banishment
God is angry at the distortion and the mismanagement
Evil is at work, but don't be thinking
He can't handle it
He promised
He would do away with all of it, dismantle it
He's put up with this damage in
His world, but
He's promised us
That He'll destroy all
His enemies and then
He'll walk with us
New Heaven, new
Earth that's where all
His sheep dwell
Cause Jesus succeeded in every part of life that we failed
Died the death we couldn't die, paid our price with 3 nails
Began the work
He promised, in the end we all will be well
Already beat his enemies and when
His Kingdom's realized
All those who oppose
Him will see
Jesus with some real eyes
Deliverance is offered us, the hero
He is urging us
Salvation is exclusive to
His people who have turned to trust [Jai:]
I give my gratitude (Jesus).
You died to make all things new.
My knight in armour when our world is fallen.
Your love's never failing.
I find safety in your arms
