antioch lyrics
[verse 1]
his eyes are bloodshot
he’s loaded and locked
thumbing through revelation down at antioch
can’t call the law ’cause the sheriff is his kin
and there’ll be h+ll to pay when he comes stumblin’ in
leave it alone
[refrain]
’cause mama don’t cry when daddy’s gone
[verse 2]
he used to beat her real good, i could hear the screams and yells
and that ain’t somethin you can fix with j+b weld
i hate him so much even though i bear his name
i can’t take him right now but one day that’s gonna change
when i get grown
[refrain]
’cause mama don’t cry when daddy’s gone
[bridge 1]
hide the bruises and hide the scars
hide your tears hide who you are
smile for the camera and pretend it’s a happy home
[verse 3]
i got in a little trouble on the day i turned sixteen
got busted stealing cars at the dairy queen
they say i’m a product of my raising
now i’m working for uncle sam
but how am i gonna be all i can be when i don’t know who i am
and i’m all alone
[refrain]
’cause mama don’t cry when daddy’s gone
[verse 4]
i’m getting stronger, i’m getting mean
i ‘m learning about k!lling, i’m learning about me
i’m learning to survive out here in the sand
i’m thinking about mama, i’m thinking about recompense
so i carry on
[refrain]
’cause mama don’t cry when daddy’s gone
[bridge 2]
let the rain wash the blood away
is the blood of the lamb really enough to save
someone like me with everything i’ve done wrong?
[verse 5]
they got me in coffield
i’m locked up tight
guess i had a little blood l+st from the fullajuh nights
i’m trapped in the wreckage, standing in the flames
wrapped up in something that was never gonna change
but then i came home
[outro]
now mama don’t cry that daddy’s gone
then i came home
now mama don’t cry that daddy’s gone
(now daddy’s gone)
