My mind's been playin' tricks on me
Been carryin' me a heavy a load
If quicksand's underneath my feet
I'll dig until I find some gold
I've been awakened by my
Will to survive and now I'm
Ready to fight this time
It's do or die
When the water takes a hold
No, I won't let it break my soul
I'll keep swimming 'til I make it home
Take me to the river
When life's been tryin' to cut me deep
I'm just gonna let it bleed
Never been a prayin' man
Now I'm foldin' up my hands
This is who I am
I've been awakened by my
Will to survive and now I'm
Ready to fight this time
It's do or die
When the water takes a hold
No, I won't let it break my soul
I'll keep swimming 'til I make it home
Take me to the river
I'ma let it all just wash away
Take me to the river
I ain't gonna leave here like I came
Take me to the river, mmh
I've been awakened by my
Will to survive and now I'm
Ready to fight this time
It's do or die
When the water takes a hold
No, I won't let it break my soul
I'll keep swimming 'til I make it home
Take me to the river
I'ma let it all just wash away
Take me to the river
I ain't gonna leave here like I came
Take me to the river
