Lyrics

[Intro – Choir swell + spoken word]
From the scars to the sermons…
From the pain to the praise…
This the benediction.
[Verse 1]
I fell, but I rose in Him,
Bled out, but He filled me again.
Every scar on my skin still talks,
Every sermon I spit still walks.
I ain’t perfect, I’m purposed still,
Spirit heavy but my soul won’t chill.
This the end, but the story lives —
Every verse a gift He gives.
[Chorus – Anthem chant + choir echo]
Jesus already won (won!),
The battle’s not my own (own!).
Scars don’t break, they preach,
Sermons turn pain to reach.
New Heaven is my home (home!),
I’ll never stand alone (no!).
From scars to the throne I run,
It’s finished — Jesus won.
[Verse 2]
I seen hell but I spoke His flame,
Tears in my eyes still praised His name.
Stood on blocks where the shots still rang,
Turned that street to a holy refrain.
This ain’t rap — this testimony,
Scars to the grave but they couldn’t own me.
Now I speak with a prophet’s tone,
Scars & sermons — that’s my home.
[Verse 3]
When I’m gone, let the records play,
Every scar still show the way.
Don’t clap for me — clap for Him,
Every loss turned crown through Him.
Now I rest in the fire I gave,
Every song still speak from the grave.
Final words from a broken son:
Don’t forget — Jesus won.
[Final Chorus – Full choir + chants + echo ad-libs]
Jesus already won (won!),
The battle’s not my own (own!).
Scars don’t break, they preach,
Sermons turn pain to reach.
New Heaven is my home (home!),
I’ll never stand alone (no!).
From scars to the throne I run,
It’s finished — Jesus won.
[Outro – Spoken benediction with faint choir]
This was Scars & Sermons.
Not my story… but His victory.
