Diggin’ My Own Grave - Glenn Kaiser

I was lookin
At disaster square in the face
I was losin
Stride in the human race
And I had no one to plead my case
Blowin
Smoke in my own face
Lost my grip in a slip'ry time
I left my friends by the wayside
And I was sure nuff no friend of mine
When you need to be rescued now is the time
Sweat drips and eyes burn
Lips pressed tight on this hardened face
I was diggin
My own grave
Pain in my heart mud all over my dreams
Stumblin
Fallen just a downhill disease
‘cause the up was nonexistent and I was the down
And they talked behind my back all over town
There
S nothin
More tragic than a suicidal slave
I was diggin
My own grave
Sweat drips and eyes burn
Lips pressed tight on this hardened face
And the head hangs heart breaks soul bleeds
I was diggin
My own grave and the lights came on I swear I don't know how and I let go of the here and now and the son of man said he came to seek and save now I ain
T diggin
No more no more diggin
My own grave
