will champlin - one shot lyrics

Loading...

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
why my demon’s doing this?

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
try your tricks, i’m gonna flip the script

i met a man on the side of the road
came back from iraq, foreclosed his home
i met a man, and his dead his half deaf
took a bullet from a friendly drown

post+traumatic, and he’s all alone
p+wned his purple heart for a loan
got two things that he can call mine
a faded black marker, and a cardboard sign

how this homeless seems so strange
the wounded hero begging me for change
just h+ll on earth, or a shallow grave
wish one of us would first be saved

behind enemy lines
he said “oh i’m dying inside”
we all get down, we stumble and fall
but for him one shot saves it all
lord have mercy on the man
who sold his soul for a little black gold
now he’s holding onto to all that he’s got
he ain’t fighting a thing, everything changed with one shot

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
why my demon’s doing this?

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
try your tricks, i’m gonna flip the script

the first week when he came back home
wife says he’s changed, so apart they’ve grown
he started drinking to hide the sorrow
one shot through the neck, and no more sipping though

bottle up the pain til he’s red in the eyes
cause he’s holding all the tears inside
now night terrors and he don’t know why
he’s hard to love, and god knows she’s tried

said won some battles but you lost this war
one more drink, and i’m out that door
you’re not the same, as you were before
i was passed out on the bas+m+nt floor
she knows he’s got
a new love on lock
in a silver flask he’s hit the wall
one more shot he’s lost it all

lord have mercy on the man
who’s drowned his love away, for a little bit more
now he’s holding onto to all that he’s lost
he ain’t fighting a thing, everything changed with one shot

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
why my demon’s doing this?

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
try your tricks, i’m gonna flip the script

take my last few dollars
and scratch off’ that i bought
just one shot at redemption
but it’s all i got

so take my last few dollars
and scratch off’ that i bought
just one shot at redemption
but it’s all you got
i said lord have mercy on the man
who turned his back on you, as his one shot fell through
now he’s holding back to the love that he knew
gotta follow faith everything will change with one shot

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
why my demon’s doing this?

hold me down, but i will persist
coming around, you better read my lips
beating the devil with a burning fist
try your tricks, i’m gonna flip the script

one shot
