"Survival" lyrics

"Survival"
(feat. Drew & Ellie Holcomb)

I got the devil on my throat
Got blood on my hands
The ones that I love are in danger
I'm a fallen man
But I found me a river
And it washes me clean
I know that I'm drowning for trying
But I'll never leave

I know that I'm found
I can't keep from hiding
Don't have a choice
But I get stuck deciding
I am a man in need of
A constant revival
Jesus come quickly
I need you for my survival

Got a lock on my soul
I'll never let you in
Got the hounds of Hell chasing
My time's running thin
But I found me a rhythm
And it breaks down my gates
Sometimes it's hard to just listen
But I'm making my case

I know that I'm found
I can't keep from hiding
Don't have a choice (choice)
But I get stuck deciding
I am a man in need of
A constant revival
Jesus come quickly
I need you for my survival

Oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh
Oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh
Like flowers need sunlight
Oo-oo-ooh
Oceans need high tide
Oo-oo-ooh
Like men need a long life
Oo-oo-ooh
To know that they ain't right
Like lions need their pride
Oo-oo-ooh
It's a matter of your time
Oo-oo-ooh
I need you if I wanna survive
Oo-oo-ooh

I know that I'm found (Fou-ound)
And I can't keep from hiding
Don't have a choice
But I get stuck deciding
I am a man in need of
A constant revival
Jesus come quickly
I need you for my survival
