Citizen Cope - Peace River lyrics

I come from a place Run by a man named Mr. Page Took everything and he wanted more Gun and a knife and he used them both Smack ya in the head in public He kicked ya down and he think nothing of it Take your head down, swallow your pride If you wanna live to see the night and I guess I had my fill I ran from the valley to the top of the hill And even though I got away I couldn't shake Mr. Page and I've fulfilled all my desires I couldn't put out the fire Thing going in my head That I need to put to rest So I would take off, fly off Get a little bit of step in my walk Checked on day given me a callin' I'm done fallin' So I could take off, fly off Get a little bit of step in my walk Swear the little kids beggin' for more Oh ho, darling Pack my bags and went To a place I promise I've never been Call my phone but cowardly steps It turned me to a cowardly man and Y'all wouldn't believe what I've seen Mr. Page, he was broke at the knees Somebody so brave and strong Just turned weak and worn and The fear, it disappeared And the hate, it followed him Could the place it occupied Be replaced by love and light so I would Take off, fly off Get a little bit of step in my walk Checked on day given me you callin' I'm done fallin' So I could take off, fly off Get a little bit of step in my walk Swear the little kids beggin' for more Oh ho, darling
