Kuawn Stewart - Overpass

Our father
Who art in heaven
I pray to you and I even begged the
Reverend

Please wash away my sins
I pray that this could end
Could we still make amends
If you can make me just
Like them

Start it out young
And I was a good kid
Everybody had remarks
For the things that I did

Then I grew up and the
Voices stayed
And they're screaming out now
I should change my ways

And now
I waste away on
My own

You pray that
I would stay in pain
And be saved by
A Holy Ghost

Run
Don't
Look
Back

To
The
Over
Pass

Chain link fence
And my Mind's content
And I'm lookin' at the lights
Let my jaw unclench

And I'm thinkin'
Of my bed
All the words they said
That brought me out
Here
Right before my death

I swear to stick around
If you understand
That your love can be as
Strong as your religion

I didn't need much
Just to feel at home
And the warmth of your hug
When I felt alone

Instead I waste
Away on my own

You'd rather me
Hide my pain
And be saved by
A Holy Ghost

Run
Don't
Look
Back

To
The
Over
Pass

Chain link fence
And my Mind's content
And I'm lookin' at the lights
Let my jaw unclench

And I'm thinkin'
Of my bed
All the words they said
That brought me out
Here
Right before my death

One last look for a shooting
Star
And I'd wish out loud that
It'd heal my heart

Eyes both closed and I feel
The wind
And I'm standin' at the gate
Waiting to step in
