"Let Me Be" lyrics

Out here on my own
A little twisted in the saddle
Went up sh!t creek
Drifted downstream without a paddle

Gotta go
Before the plan unravels
Can't turn back now
Looks like I'm headed into battle

Defend my life
And I will always keep on fighting for it
Seems that's what they want from me
Just won't let me be

You wanna know
Everywhere that I travel
Don't look now
I'm comin' in hot without a rattle

Swung low
Between the oak and the gavel
All that guilt was gone
Before the rope unraveled

Defend my life
And I will always keep on fighting for it
Seems that's what they want from me
Just won't let me be

Don't think you'll ever know
Just how far I go
To get it right
The more you take away
You may care for me
Or say you're there for me
You decide
I'm going either way

Defend my life
And I will always keep on fighting for it
Seems that's what they want from me
Just won't let me be
