Nobody's Gonna Save You But Yourself

You're drowning
In a sea of mediocrity
No one's gonna come to rescue you
It's astounding
How shallow all your friends can be
Where do they disappear when the bill comes due

You can pray all day to Jesus
Nobody's gonna save you but yourself
Beg the devil to release ya but
Nobody's gonna save you but yourself

We're living
In a time of great uncertainty
There are no easy answers close at hand
How forgiving
Is your god, or is she vengefully
Wreaking judgment all throughout the land

You can pray all day to Jesus
Nobody's gonna save you but yourself
Beg the devil to release ya but
Nobody's gonna save you but yourself

Even though you're all alone
The good lord could be standing by
The storm has drenched you to the bone
But you'll make it, make it if you try

It's alright
It's alright like that
Don'tcha feel the good lord standing by
We all know it's tight like that
But brother you'll make it if you try

Keep swimming
Surely you will reach the shore
You'll live to fight the battle one more day
You're winning
If you learn to walk away
When someone tries to drag you down to the clay

You can pray all day to Jesus
Nobody's gonna save you but yourself
Beg the devil to release ya but
Nobody's gonna save you from yourself

No you'll never be alone
If you believe the good lord's standing by
We all know it's tight like that
And sister you'll make it if you try

It's alright
It's alright like that
It's alright
It's alright like that
