[Verse 1]
It began on a day in December
Lying in a basket of bread
Life can try to beat it out of him
Dropping him high, he's trying to swim
But mother knows she won't relent
Yea I said mother knows she won't relent
[Verse 2]
There a dark, cold spirit in the water
Beating on the innocent wounds
Maybe life can see through eyes of the King
But then again maybe its not
Yea I said then again maybe its not
[Chorus]
Don't let me drown
Cuz I've been waiting for too long
Run on my sister and go tell my father I'm
Coming home
(2x)
[Verse 3]
There are thousands of voices in my head
Telling me that I have lost
How about standing up for what we believe in
Then drowning in the cause
[Chorus]
Don't let me drown
Cuz I've been waiting for too long
Run on my sister and go tell my father I'm
Coming home
(x3)
[Verse 4]
It began on a day in December
Lying in a basket of bread
Life can try to beat it out of him
Dropping him high, he trying to swim
But mother knows she won't relent
