bartees & the strange fruit - count it back (folkadelphia session) lyrics

[verse 1]
they’re burning crosses from west texas to memphis
i’ve seen ’em burning out there by the lake
ain’t no+one give a f+ck when they up there burning
they hit you later like “eh blood, you okay?”

[verse 2]
i call my mother every morning for power
and if i didn’t i’d have died or wrecked
i count it back so i could be there for people
i count it back so i could stay there for me, oh
[chorus]
count it back, my friend
there’s a+way to many going
i’ve lasted, i’ve been so far you wouldn’t have to go
where they at, your friends?
there’s too many of us going
outlast, my skin, ah

[verse 3]
we used to stay up late and whip that chorizo
smoking ever before we hit the rec
now i see you when you hop out the rigo
got a chevy now, you so select

[verse 4]
my n+gga brought big bro, he run round with devils
i bet diablo know my last name the best
i count it back so i could be there for people
i count it back so i could stay there for me, oh

[chorus]
count it back, my friend
there’s too many of us going
how to last, where i’ve been, so far you couldn’t have to go
where they at, your friends?
there’s too many of us going
outlast, my skin
[outro]
he’s got sunshine an’, he’s got big dreams
it’s hard to know how, he’ll find his way
if you’ve got some inclination, oh
you know right where i stay
put your shoes on, an hammer the line or there
won’t be that far an’ you will be fine, oh
take your shots, boy, i got all the time, i know
we’ll find ways out and you will be mine
