jonathan allen wright - moved on lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i saw the struggles there
i saw the people as they cried
i saw the man from there
i saw a fury grow inside and make it’s way out

[chorus]
and i saw him beatin’ on the slave ’cause he could
so i beat ’em with a rock ’cause i felt like i should
and i don’t think i can return
on all the bridges i have burned, so i moved on

[verse 1]
i wasn’t born in this
i was a slave but taken out
so how could i resist
when seeing someone beaten down, it could have been me

[chorus]
now i hide away in the fiеlds out of town
and i feel pulled to go to holy ground
and i don’t think i can return
on all the bridgеs i have burned, so i move on
how can i move on?

[bridge]
a fire burning bright but nothing is burned
the second chance gained and nothing is earned
how could i go?
and now i’m running back to the scene of the crime
and bringing out people you called “mine”
and then i go, where do i go?
[verse 3]
we wandered all around
and never quite learned how to lead
you let me live to see
the place where all of them would be
and then i went on

[chorus]
now the people live and the children are grown
and they finally have a place they can call their own
and i thought i could not return
you gave the things i couldn’t earn
and then i moved on

[outro]
and then i moved on
