ALABAMA BLUES

As the river flows no one truly knows how fast or slow it goes

It turns and bends a million different ways it gets deep then shallow as it grows
 so cold as it turns dark
the fish loses sight banging there heads on rocks
 
one things for sure

life is as the flowing river with untold stories that sunk straight to the rivers bottom

 wasn't willing to fight
 
you better swim cause s**t doesn't float

 wasting life just trying to float?

 now its really tough the current is picking up

 now you blue and wanna give up

 cause the man in blue captured you

 don't get it confused he's doing his job dude

 but the final choice is entirely on u

family, wife and kids are all counting on you to
put it all in perspective
 do s**t the right way and then you won't be affected

so back to reality your sitting in that cell with a million things running in your head

thinking I'm talking crazy ain't even trying to hear nothing
 I'm  saying

 but its not what I say but what truth is being said

right is right and there's no right way to do wrong

so brother just be strong for God is at
the throne so kneel and let go cause that's what allows that river to run its course is him
 SO SWIM
