GENTLY DOWN THE STREAM

 

have you ever seen the face of a broken heart

have you ever seen the sun in your darkest hour

have you ever had a headache that cha can't let go 

have you ever seen a nation this torn apart 

have you ever been so tired wanna rest yo legs 

have you ever listened closely to the voices in you head 

 you ever watched TV, 

for so long it loses meaning, 

and your eyes become so weary, 

lord it feels like you've been dreaming 

have you ever heard the rumor of a promised land 

have you ever turned to Jesus when you need something 

been pulled over for the color of your skin 

cause it's not where ya going girl 

it's where you've been 

have yo ever felt lost while standing still 

have you ever loved somebody and it didn't feel real 

 you ever felt alive, 

like you never wanna die 

have you ever changed your mind, 

like them feelings weren't real 

have you ever had to choose between right and wrong 

have you ever been surrounded, 

felt completely alone 

have you ever been confronted, 

made to feel like your unwanted 

people try and say it's nothing, 

but the memories keep on haunting 

HAVE YOU EVER been accused 

have you ever been touched 

HAVE YOU EVER been abused 

have you ever been rough 

have you ever made excuses,

try your hardest not to lose it, 

tell the world what you've been through 

and swear to God you didn't do it 

have you ever looked away 

have you ever stepped in 

have you ever crossed the line, 

close your eyes and pretend 

have you ever prayed to Jesus, 

begging please Lord let em see us, 

took forever just to free us, 

look around they trying to be us 

Have you ever felt ashamed when you're looking in the mirror 

girl ya seeing what ya seeing cause you trying your best to be HER 

have you ever took the time to look around and think 

have you ever looked around and shook your head in disbelief 

have you ever said never 

turned around and did whatever,

take advantage of the moment and you wish it'd last forever

have you ever done something that you're bound to regret 

have you ever said something that you're trying to forget 

you said you wanna move on, 

but they just wanna hold on, 

Ya said there's nothing left to say that hasn't been sung

have you ever looked around and thought why Lord why 

have you ever looked around and thought 

my oh my 

have you ever gave someone you loved a last goodbye 

did you rush to get through it, 

did you take your time 

have you ever looked in so you could see your way out 

never gave up when you were down and out 

Ya look around in disbelief, 

can't believe in what you see, 

cause we're living in a world when ya tweeting when ya speak 

and the camera paints a picture. 

gotcha thinking things are better, 

but the INSTAnt only captures, 

what is floating on the surface 

while the leader of the free world is trying his best to trick us
