Coretta Scott Jefferson St Lyrics

Jefferson St Lyrics



Mikey tell me something anything will do

been driving around these tired streets for so long

I find courage when you speak of what we're bound to

Some days it's slow motion films

listen close as the blood loses pace in your veins

spit to escape the taste of a life that was out to get you



other days there's a fire hearts burn hot

coals turn worries to ashes

and our voices are raised in one faithful protest

we'll never give up, never give in

keep on fighting we never give up, never give in



Felt like nothing ever mattered till you all came

And if I could do this all again I wouldn't change a thing



Some nights I crawled so deep into this bottle

feared the worst that maybe someday I'd never get out alive

this is the worst that you have ever seen of me

I'm promising change, promising change in due time
