( Intro )
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way !
( Verse 1 )
I sitting alone in the dark feeling hopeless
Now I slowly sleeping into the darkness
I fighting for my life, It`s my only ability
Lord doezn`t help me, Becuz I`m guilty
Living as a sinner, God Bless me....
Should I get on my knees
band my handz and start to pray?
I don`t think so
Cuz god can`t help me anyway
Will I get the chance to live and see the next day
What should I do ?
I`m just saying what I feel
Now they keep on attackin` me without no reason...
I couldn`t just stand there
And take shit and stare I did selfdefence,
Lord are you there?
My lord, I know that you ignoring me
I ain`t complety blind I can see
Plez god....
Give me some diresctions once again
I think my fall iz the devils plan
I have never ever
Hurt an innocent man even If I can
I`m not doin` it my whole life
Have been basiced in one big game
All I ever felt was pressure and pain
( Chorse: allison kraus & F-T-M )
O brothers let`s go down,
Let`s go down, come on down,
Come on brothers let`s go down,
Down in the river to pray.
( F-T-M )
Lord show me the way
Help me change my ways
Before the judgement day
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way !
O sisters let`s go down,

O sisters let`s go down,
Down in the river to pray.

( Verse 2 )
I close my eyez
Picture back in the old days
In those membories I want forever stay
Tell the whole world
I`m guility to be in agez ey there..
I can never be the greatest
Lord take me to another peaceful place before its to late..
Here I just see the black devils face full of hate
I walked the right way
The way to heavenz stair
I missed one step and failed the lord doezn`t care
My whole life basiced on sins
what can you do those days?
We killing eath other all falling into the hell`s caves
We all becoming the victims of the devil`s slaves
I living in my own living hell the one called earth
I felt nuthin` but pain ever since mah own birth
One day mah blood gone run the streets in a race
I shouldn`t get born in the first place
In worse ways some timez I wonder if I`m God`z son
Or Satan`s creation I know its sounds crazy
But the only reason I live is for my baby
I`m fallin` to the floor
Beging the lord to let me into heavenz door
Can`t take it anymore if I Live to morning
And see the sun plz forgive me for sinz
For there I Come...
