"Candle" lyrics

"Candle"

Certified cracker boy couple decade making noise
Live lost won a little bit I'm here to tell the stories
Grew up in the country mom and dad named me David
Back flipping off the hay bales nobody can save him
Taking chances with my life there's nothing to explain
I'm on beat Devil dancing puffing for the pain
I'm night riding hide n seek telling lies to myself
Masked up I'm the man inside I'm crying for help
Like I'm a

Train off the track bout to runaway
It's getting dark hope I see the sun rise another day
The pain is the chisel God's hand is the hammer
Holes in my hands trying to hold on to the candle
To light the way

I'm building walls for a paycheck
Digging the hole
I'm building walls around myself
So nobody knows
But the fairytales fading the mirrors on the facts
I'm face to face with a demon evil's on my back
I try to pray but I can't quiet my disease and focus
Past episodes repeat remind me that I'm broken
Rewind replay the cycle insane I can't relax
A runaway train off of the chain off of the tracks
I'm a

Train off the track bout to runaway
It's getting dark hope I see the sun rise another day
The pain is the chisel God's hand is the hammer
Holes in my hands trying to hold on to the candle
To light the way

Rest in peace Uncle Randy, Timmy, Willy, Tommy, Bruce and Danny
Chris Jones and Lewis, Robert Reece and both Jessica's
Randy King, Mary Ann and Jean, Kenneth O'neal, Rhino, Aunt Roselynne, Tupac and Toby Keith
Mike Ross, Mo Mo, Mama Morris, Gook and Sika Boy
Crank it up for Jesus tell him Jones in ya speaker boy
Thanks for the forgiveness I know you'll continue blessing me
I landed on my destiny I knew that God was testing me
Graduated with honors laid a path for the young bucks
Doing my best to teach em math so they don't get stuck
Every dollar you get invest 25cents then pretend it don't exist
And you'll never be broke again

Train off the track bout to runaway
It's getting dark hope I see the sun rise another day
The pain is the chisel God's hand is the hammer
Holes in my hand trying to hold on to the candle
To light the way
