Manmade God - Swamp Water Lyrics
I've been sittinWith the weight of the worldOn my shouldersAnd I'm feelin' like the sweatOff the back of some slaveLayin' tracks with the sun in his eyesAnd I'm driftingDown the path of the swampThat I've swallowedAnd I'm beating off the scalesThat belong to a snakeCome at me with blood in his eyes[Chorus:]But hey it's alrightIt's alright, it's alrightYa know I made it throughAnother dayWell I'm steamin'As I wade through the brothIn the belly of an overripe monkeyWho screams with diseaseAs the worms crawl in through his eyesAnd I'm bleedin'Through the cracks in my faceAs I wallow through the salt of rejectionThat eats through my kneesReaching in to pull out my spine[Chorus ?2]Well I know I'm headed for a breakdownI know the time is rightI know I'm headed for a breakdownI know the time is rightBut yeahYou gotta keep on pushin' forward'Till you reach the risin' sun[Chorus ?2]It's alright, it's alright, it's alrightI made it through another day.Well I know I'm headed for a breakdownI know the time is rightAnd I know that she will come to me
