The River (Feat. Matt Shadows)

As I walk through the valley

Of the shadow of L.A.

The footsteps that were next to me

Have gone their separate waysI've seen enough now to know that beautiful things

Don't always stay that way

I've done enough now to know this beautiful place

Isn't everything they sayI heard that evil comes disguised

Like the city of angels

I'm walking towards the lightBaptized in the river

I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered

In the city was a sinner

I've done a lot of things wrong but I swear I'm a believerLike the prodigal son, I was out on my own

Now I'm trying to find my way back home

Baptized in the river

I'm delivered, I'm deliveredYou're from a small town

You're gonna grow up fast underneath these lights

Down in Hollywood on the boulevard

The dead come back to lifeTo the praying Mother and the worried Father

Let your children go

If they come back they'll come home stronger

And if they don't you'll knowThey say evil that comes disguised

Like the city of angels

I'm walking towards the lightBaptized in the river

I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered

In the city was a sinner

I've done a lot of things wrong but I swear I'm a believerLike the prodigal son, I was out on my own

Now I'm trying to find my way back home

Baptized in the river

I'm delivered, I'm deliveredBaptized in the river

(On my own!)

Baptized in the river

(On my own!)

I wanna be delivered(On my own!)

(On my own!)Baptized in the river

(On my own!)

I wanna be delivered

Baptized in the river

(On my own!)

I wanna be deliveredBaptized in the river

(On my own!)

I wanna be delivered

I confess I'm a sinner

I've seen a vision of my life

And I wanna be delivered!
