Holding on

I can feel it in my soul
Something about you has changed
I can feel it in my bones
Something just ain't the same

Darling don't even try to beg me to stay
Don't know why you're holding on
Down this long way road
My heart was bound to break

All of these things you've said
Keep making my world safe
Is it too late to change
I've always been this way
I hear my father calling
Get on my knees and pray
I'm begging for your mercy
I hope it's not too late
I wanna testify
Scream in your holy light
The fires pulling me in
Oh lord you know I tried
When I'm slave to sin
You bring me back to life

Don't even try to beg me to stay
Don't know why you're holding on
Down this long way road
My heart was bound to break

On this road I call my home
Please don't leave me in the end
You're the only father I've ever known
Take me down to the water
Watch me drink from my father
Wherever I wander
No weapons form will prosper

Don't even try to beg me to stay
Don't know why you're holding on
Down this long way road
My heart was bound to break

All of these things you've said
Keep making my world safe
Is it too late to change
I've always been this way
I hear my father calling
Get on my knees and pray
I'm begging for your mercy
I hope it's not too late
