The River
[Verse 1]
Momma said that there were tornadoes under the water
If I swim out too far I would drown
So keep your mind on the bank and your feet on the levee
Or the devil will take you, take you on down

[Verse 2]
I was born into a home but a pit for the lonely
If I can't run you best believe I can fly
'Cause ain't no hell dark enough in this world that can know me
Ain't no devil of the damned gonna watch me die

[Verse 3]
So flip the switch, give it all you think you got 'cause I'm ready
I was born a caged dog with nothing to lose
And I will stand at the edge, cracked tooth and grinnin'
With a smile on my face, and nothing to lose

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 4]
So cut the skin, watch it bleed just to feel more than a daydream
Hit the bong 'til I see what I am
Heroes die, legends live
I'll be damned if I go on but
Remembered as only a man
