Down To the River

They swore they locked up that box they put you in
Spread lies about you to her, him, and them
Fetal position is where they thought you had been
They saw you in them bright lights, and lost it
They wanna down play all you are to them
They swear they hate you but they follow you still
They dress like you, walk like you, talk like you
But they just don't fit bill

They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Where no one can see, They wanna take my life cause they envy me
They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Where no one can see, They wanna take my life cause they envy me
They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Down to the river
Down to the river
Never to be seen

Cause for concern they fear what they don't understand
How can you beat someone who never gives in
Once you know yourself the power comes in
Its in your eyes, they know you're willing you to win
They swear they know you but they don't know your pain
How you almost died with a gun in yo face
Crawled up for the gutter with guitar in yo hand
Tell mama thank you again

They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Where no one can see, They wanna take my life cause they envy me
They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Where no one can see, They wanna take my life cause they envy me
They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Down to the river
Down to the river
Never to be seen

They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Where no one can see, They wanna take my life cause they envy me
They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Where no one can see, They wanna take my life cause they envy me
They wanna take me down, down, down to the river
Down to the river
Down to the river
Never to be seen
