[Verse 1] I kept score in the dark called it justice, called it art eye for eye, I was blind same old blade, different side I threw stones, then I ducked said "they earned it," like I was struck but my hands were red too what I dealt came back on cue Turn the page, hear the break what I gave, I can't escape measure me with my own weight every lie I made a gate [Pre-Chorus] Then You met me in the wreck didn't flinch, didn't collect You said, "Son, put down the case there's another way to pay" [Chorus] Fair play, fair play mercy gets the final say Fair play, fair play turn my heart, remake my ways What I sow, let me reap grace is deeper than my teeth Fair play, fair play I was lost, now I obey [Verse 2] I was quick with the receipt slow to kneel, slow to weep kept a ledger in my chest every grudge I wore like dress But You washed that ink away took my rage, broke my chain made a table for my shame wrote my name in better flame Now I see the crooked rule vengeance makes a prison, too every blow just breeds a bruise every wound can choose to move Let the offended be made whole let the angry lose control I can't heal by making scars I need hands that carry jars [Pre-Chorus] Then You met me in the wreck didn't flinch, didn't collect You said, "Son, put down the case there's another way to pay" [Chorus] Fair play, fair play mercy gets the final say Fair play, fair play turn my heart, remake my ways What I sow, let me reap grace is deeper than my teeth Fair play, fair play I was lost, now I obey [Bridge] Not revenge but repent not the wound but the mend Take my name take my pride let the old score bleed and die If I owe let me bow You forgave me teach me how [Final Chorus] Fair play, fair play mercy gets the final say Fair play, fair play turn my heart, remake my ways What I sow, let me reap grace is deeper than my teeth Fair play, fair play I was lost, now I obey Fair play, fair play turn my scars into my praise Fair play, fair play turn about me into grace
