A trust betrayed, a rusty blade Standin' on the air, I walked the line Paid my fine, hope I know the land The actual facts, unatural acts Sins that take their toll The Angel and the ginn and the beast within They fight to take control [CHORUS] Lord, have mercy on my soul On my soul, on my soul, on my soul Lord needs you like a junkie needs his drug He needs you like a baby boy needs his hug Needs you like the power, Lord, needs the sun I need you like DMC needs Run Lord, have mercy on my soul, Lord, have mercy on my soul Lord loves you like the Eskimo loves the cold I love you like the miner man loves his gold Love you like the fishermen loves the sea I love you like the flowers love the work of bees [CHORUS] Lord, have mercy on my soul On my soul, on my soul, on my soul Lord, have mercy on my soul Standin' up tall, on top of the wall Hopin' that I can fly, Angel and the jinn and the beast within Say I'm gonna die [CHORUS] Lord, have mercy on my soul On my soul, on my soul, on my soul
