EVERLAST LYRICS - Mercy On My Soul

"Mercy On My Soul"



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
