We The Kingdom's song is a heartfelt plea for redemption and forgiveness. The narrator confesses a wasted life, seeking freedom through various means but finding only emptiness. They acknowledge their sins and ask Jesus to come into their heart, teach them to live, and forgive them. The song expresses a desire to leave behind a dead existence and find true life in Christ. It also touches on the hope of heaven, described as a home with streets of gold and angels. The overall message is one of repentance and the transformative power of God's grace.

Dear Jesus
It's been a long long time
Been running 'round
Racking my brain on why I've wasted life
Looking for freedom
I've tried every high
I thought I saw the light
But I been seeing blind
Would You come into my heart
Teach me how to live
I'm tired of living
Like a dead man
Don't You think You could forgive
All the bad things that I've done
Are more than I can bare
Lord, please hear this
Sinner's prayer
Well dear Jesus
Can you hear me now
I never thought rock bottom could be
So far down
I took the bait of the devil
Hopped on a wrong way train
Goin' hell bound in a hurry
Til You called my name
Would You come into my heart
Teach me how to live
I'm tired of living
Like a dead man
Don't You think You could forgive
All the bad things that I've done
Are more than I can bare
Oh Lord please hear this
Sinner's prayer
Take me home
Take me home
I've heard about them
Backroad streets of gold
Take me home
Take me home
To the motherland
Where the angels roam
Would You come into my heart
Teach me how to live
I'm tired of living
Like a dead man
Don't You think You could forgive
All the bad things that I've done
Are more than I can bare
Yes, Lord please hear this
Sinner's prayer
Thank you Lord for the Sinner's Prayer
