Let's go down to the river If we drown then we'll be You can still see the upon the wall One eye at nothing at all
The other one trying to focus through all your You can try and try but there's nothin' to You can't run from yourself and inside You got to find the answers to the that you most fear
So and over you ask your soul you come down to a world so cold? And the voice says, tonight the truth will be told
You surrounded yourself with all the faces your time in all the wrong places Puttin' your faith in things that only you cry People say, they love you when wanna help But how can they when you help yourself?
The more they say they love you, the you just wanna die So we go again, the self analysis Have glass of port and uh, forget this The band's at the club tonight and they're bound to groove
There you are, you think high You ask yourself 'cuz you'd only lie If you had a dollar for time you tried
You can't call nobody 'cuz they'll tell you up Come and love when you really hate 'em Relationships based on the physical are over and They're over and (They're and done)
rather have fun With one, with only one one, one (One)
And then it hit 'cha like a fist on a Who you life when there was none at all? Who gave the sun to rise up everyday? (Ooh, oh, yes) Let me it (Go'n)
If you ask God to you longer Every breath you take will you stronger Keepin' you (Happy)
And proud to His name (Go'n' and say it) (Jesus)
And over and you ask your soul Why'd you come to a world so cold? And the voice inside said, tonight the truth be told And this time I was listening, me
Let's go down to the river If we drown we'll be delivered (Yes, we will) If we don't we'll never see the light (No)
If you die you try You'll have to back and face the light (Oh, yes) When you believe it, you got a reason to cry (Oh my, my)
So I went on down to the holy I called my girl and told her, I had to give her I asked her to me and she said, yes, I cried Oh, that night I drowned in her and mine And, and instead of a glass of and wine
Looking back y'all, I don't nothing except the time And when I see that picture the wall The one eye at nothing at all My eyes trying to focus but are much different tears Oh yes, are
Let's go down to the river Let's go down to the river Let's go down to the river
Let's go down to the holy Let's go down to the holy go down to the holy river
