Mercy

Have mercy... It will set you free Truth be told I have been cold Numb to the touch Can’t get enough Have mercy... It will set you free Lies unfold I have been old Before my time Time for me to shine Because I forgive you, bro I do though...you know? Glimmer like the glistening glow of the moon Shimmer like the blissful blessings of the afternoon Drugs and alcohol in the air, happily without a single care Lifting our hands in the air - no more dealing with despair I don’t care if they look or judge There’s a way to love your enemies and hold no grudge Have mercy on me... That is my only plea Set me free from despondency A spell I’ve been in for a century Decades and decades of dealing with strife Has made me feel numb and dumb all my life I realize that I’ve been drunk a little and stupid Get rid of the pity that’s in my heart and goodbyes I’ll never bid Hello to happiness Goodbye to sadness There will be no more violence or sorrow There will be a new and brighter Tomorrow Have mercy on me, But reap what you sow
