Heavy Soul

Oh, brother, won’t you tell me

How to stay on the road that I’m on

The lights they’re all fading

I just don’t think they’re gonna guide me home

There you go again preaching bout God’s plan

So, when’s He coming back?

It’s a little hard to keep believing

When you’re driving blind and you’re driving fast

All the plans that he’s made for me

I can’t see what you want me to see

You don’t know

What it is to have a heavy soul

You don’t know

What it is to own a heavy soul

You don’t know

And you’ll never know a heavy soul

So lay my body down, in the ground

Say your best prayers

And let my heavy soul go

Oh, sister, can’t you hear me

Dragging my feet to this relentless beat

Trying to step to a tempo

Even the best believer couldn’t keep

When I’m gone light a candle

Save my soul when you’re on your knees

And while you’re down there just remember

All lives matter, that’s what you’ve preached

Don’t worry for what it’s worth

My worry ends when I hit the dirt

You don’t know

What it is to have a heavy soul

You don’t know

What it is to own a heavy soul

You don’t know

And you’ll never know a heavy soul

So lay my body down, in the ground

Say your best prayers

And let my heavy soul go

You don’t know

What it is to have a heavy soul

You don’t know

What it is to own a heavy soul

You don’t know

And you’ll never know a heavy soul

So lay my body down, in the ground

Say your best prayers

Let my heavy soul go

You don’t know

What it is to have a heavy soul

You don’t know

What it is to own a heavy soul

You don’t know

And you’ll never know a heavy soul

Lay my body down, in the ground

Say your best prayers

Let my heavy soul go
