Lyrics
No matter what you go through in life No matter how hard it gets You can never give up You got to learn to dig deep It's gone be some times when nobody believes in you When you feel like the underdog But you gotta push Come take me down to the river Wash away my sins with liquor Mama told me Jesus got me But some sins can't be forgiven I been down from the start I got payback in my heart Every time I walk away I end up right back where I start Lonely days, cold nights A broken dog ain't got no fight They all bark, they got no bite I feel like they got me up under the thumb It's impressing the words that I'm gone write I'm giving it, yeah Determine if there is a change in me, yeah You want it your actions are taking me there Kept fighting with it have me facing me fears Praying you bitches are tasting my tears Blood on my shirt how a man doesn't care Maybe I'm scared, the feeling you're backed in the corner With no other option has got me embracing the fear A lot on my mind I'm probably fine There's moments I feel like I'm talking to God I gotta unwind just give me a second to think To deal with emotions and anger That's bottled inside I been denied My mother is sick and I'm out of my mind Pretend that I'm calm but I'm quietly not It switch at the drop of a dime Come take me down to the river Wash away my sins with liquor Mama told me Jesus got me But some sins can't be forgiven I been down from the start I got payback in my heart Every time I walk away I end up right back where I start Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Heart filled with guilt but I prayed repentance For the time I let the 45 vent with vengeance Bad decisions good intentions My family suffered when I did my sentence Raised different descendant of the sinners They out my dawgs in the kennel Mama cried and sang songs in the rain Of this pain to a instrumental Granny told me that only God saves Chip on my shoulder like Rod Wave But I felt abandoned I crash landed Blinded by the shine of the dark ways Felt heart ache cause they all fake When I speak love they just talk hate No rats round here we play quiet mouse They wait to throw gas when my fires out Just cause I'm tired don't mean I'm retired If I said I ain't with it I'd be a liar I don't need a choir just some holy water Set my soul on fire hallelujah What's it to you if I'm doing good Walked through the flames so my kids cool Speaking wise words to a simple fool Baptized myself in this Clase Azul Come take me down to the river Wash away my sins with liquor Mama told me Jesus got me But some sins can't be forgiven I been down from the start I got payback in my heart Every time I walk away I end up right back where I start Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Take me down to the river Wash away my sins with liquor Mama told me Jesus got me But some sins can't be forgiven I been down from the start I got payback in my heart Every time I walk away I end up right back where I start Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river Oh, take me down to the river To the river To the river
