Deliverance

I've been travelin' for some time (some time, some time) With my fishin' pole and my bottle of shine (bottle of shine, bottle of shine) On these long dark dusty roads (dusty roads, dusty roads) I'm lookin, there's no where to go I guess i gotta hide away, far away Cuz i gotta find a way, to find my way Cuz i gotta hide away, far away Cuz i gotta find a way, to find my way-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay I left out from mama's with my thumb in the wind The leaves on the ground, winter's comin' again Solid on the surface as I crumble within But legends are made out of honorable men So on the brink of death I still manage livin' life Cause so rarely in this world are these chances givin twice I indeed sold my soul without glancin' at the price No instructions when I was handed this device But with what I did give I was more than generous Put others over self on several instances But I'm back on my feet without a hint of bitterness And one way or another I shall have deliverance So I say... Can you recall a time people loved you unconditionally? Toast in the new south, "this one is for history" Then i slipped fell and caused the numbers injury Called the same people and it's, "yo you just missed em' B" This the former look damnit Bubba you had it Why'd you have to keep it Polo and New Balance Then they start to question whether you are true talent Or just a redneck substance abuse addict So then you hide away just to try to find your way And now they're back to callin' you 200 times a day I want all y'all to know, good or bad, i'll remember it At 10 million sold in the name of my deliverance... Nothin could atone for the pain you've endured The blood you've shed is still stained in your velour You took your wealth and knowledge and gave it to the poor Only to discover that your savior is manure Acceptin' me as kin, put before your younger brotha They put a lot on us hardly knowin' one another I honestly can say that over time I've come to love ya Now we are brothers and together no one can touch us It haunts me with regret I never met your baby girl She's an angel on your shoulder helpin us to save the world This musical marriage is no coincidence Said my mama to me, baby we shall have deliverance So we say...
