Troubled Land

[Verse 1]

Well, there's a pain in my side, but I keep traveling on

Bring peace to this troubled land

It's dark out here, I can't read those signs

Bring peace to the troubled land

Hurricane on the horizon

Judgment getting closer all the time

I can't find tomorrow

Bring peace to this troubled land

[Verse 2]

Well, there's a-two men a-walking down the same dirty road

Bring peace to this troubled land

They stand shoulder to shoulder carrying the same heavy load

Bring peace to this troubled land

One man's eyes are full of sorrow

The other man's belly full of unbearable pain

They keep getting closer

Bring peace to this troubled land

[Verse 3]

I got many screaming children, ten million rows to hoe

Bring peace to this troubled land

Deader than a hammer but I can't let go

Bring peace to this troubled land

The eyes of heaven are upon you

But so is the soul from down below

They'll cut off your fingers

To bring peace to this troubled land

[Verse 4]

Well, you can stand up and holler, you can lay down and die

Bring peace to this troubled land

We can turn up our collars and never even try

To bring peace to this troubled land

Beware of those who wanna harm you

And drag you down to a lower game

Just know the truth is coming

To bring peace to this troubled land

[Outro]

I got a pain in my side, but I keep traveling on
