Children Lyrics

Birth me of blood oil

Salt sugar water pales

Build me black jesus

Cause jesus can't save me

Shackles pulling at your hair

Shine me from roots out

Wash me form the neck down

Cut me fat stores

Take me to the tree line

I'm a heading down down down

Down to the river cause I don't believe in medicine

I'll crawl out shaking pale

Always got the answer I got ears all around me

Burn up in black smoke

Thick and pouring down your throat

Make me of bread walks

Listen up with ears we're diving

Birth me of blood oil

Salt sugar water pales

Build me black jesus

Shackles pulling at your hair

I'm a heading down down down

Down to the river cause I don't believe in medicine

I'll crawl out shaking pale

Always got the answer I got ears all around me

Tell your children we got another year coming

Oil stands the legs this body speaks in tongues

And croaks "I'm heading down"

I'll walk down to the river where we met our pales

Filled and spilling like our southern friends

Met that pale atop the rocks and moss

Grass grips licks about our heels and bends

Tell your children we spent a year in this fire.

Copper bands and hells getting lighter line up

In lines we can only get higher

Tell your children we got another year coming
