Deliverance

I've been travelin for some time (echo)

With my fishin pole and my bottle of shine (echo)

On these long dark dusty roads (echo)

Lookin there's nowhere to go

I guess I gotta hide away, far away

Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way

I gotta hide away, far away

Cause I gotta find a way, to find my way

Ay-ay-ay ay-ay-ay aaay

I left off of 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 vulnerable men

So on the brink of death I still manage livin life

Cause so rarely in this world are these chances given twice

I indeed sold my soul, without glancing at the price

No instructions when I was handed this device

But with what I did get, 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 number's injury

Called the same people and it's yo you just missed them B

This the formula, dammit Bubba you had it

Why'd you have to keep it Polo and New Balance?

Then they start to question whether you a true talent

Or just a redneck substance abuse addict

So then you hide away just to try to find your way

And now they back to callin you 200 times a day

I want all y'all to know, good or bad I'll remember it

And 10 million sold in the name of my deliverance

Nothing could atone for the pain you've endured

The blood you shed is still stained in your valour

You took your wealth and knowledge and gave it to the poor

Only to discover that your savior's manure

Accepted me as kin, put before your younger brother

They put a lot on us hardly knowin one another

I honestly can say that over time I've come to love you

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 coincedence

So my mama to me baby we shall have deliverance

So we say
