Baptized In Muddy Waters

(Album: Child Of The State - 2021)

Pain I feel
You won't see in my eyes, no
I write it down on paper, and I
Let my fingers glide, oh
I'm tired of people
Pretending to know
Who I am, where I'm from
And where I'm bound to go, and
I'm tired of trying
And aiming to please
So I'm gonna play my music
And bring these people to their knees

You know I'm baptized
In muddy water, baby
I have been baptized
In muddy water, baby

It's time we all listened up
To what one another has to say and
Open our eyes to these
Brand new kind of ways, well
It's time for an evolution, a revolution
Of making love not war, if we
We learned from our past mistakes and not
Do mistakes been done before

You know I'm baptized
In muddy water, baby
I have been baptized
In muddy water, baby, oh

Listen, my soul's on fire
Feel me as I burn hotter
That's what happens to a man
Who has been baptized

I have been baptized
In muddy water, baby
I said I'm baptized
In those muddy waters, baby
Uh, uh, uh
