Slug - Safe lyrics

[Verse One] [Pigeon John]: I was in your little belly You were in Kansas in a hotelly You were worried cause you were late and he didn't know You paced back and forth looking out the window Make sure he's not around when you make the phone call Your hands shaky you don't know if it's the wrong call Already got one angel sleeping quiet on the bed Innocent child, curly hair on his little head And you were once one, didn't know you still were in all A daughter of a king sitting in a dark ball Your silhouette shines thin through the curtain The phone's to your ear, nothing's for certain You got the number, got the plan, hear the dial tone It sounds loud and it rings through your thin bones 7 digits and the whole deal's fixed quick But you're froze cold, and you feel sick You looked at your angel again You slowly put the phone back on its hinge You lie down right next to my big brother You try not to cry when you got under covers You had no money, had no plan, barely had a call But it was funny you didn't worry about it all You fell asleep in your bed with your new son I felt your hand on my head It was all done [Chorus] [Jo Wilkinson]: I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you [Verse Two] [Slug]: Momma, momma, your boy tipped over But this cross ain't your burden to shoulder It's not your fault that the joker Can't find his own way home when he's sober Most minutes, strictly business Wanna do great, wanna make a difference But when the liquor hits, shifted Gonna put this any where that it fits No respect for love and safety Gave face as a place to hate me You made me and named me, but have you seen me lately? I'm not the same baby Nah I take the whole blame, I made the choice to try to play this old game Soul got wet from cold rain When I meet the devil, I'mma say my full name Free fell, ain't a thing to tell You know this world, and you've seen its hell Chin up, kinda like yourself Too much pride inside this ain't a cry for help I wanna be comfortably numb And I'm in the cycle with the life I run from Can't speak on the crimes I've done I'm afraid that you won't recognize your son [Chorus] [Jo Wilkinson]: I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you [Verse Three] [Eligh]: Even if I lost my life a million miles from home My heart would hold you like a locket encrusted in diamonds and chrome That's the way I keep from depression under pressure With bullets whizzing past my ears in this battle zone I'm alone I love you like the wind, and yes we've just begun The wind because it blows me close to you when I'm on the run I'm moving through this desert, the sun is chapping my back Iraq is no joke, I lack, no hope I'm playing my part, you're safe in my heart So keep me on your mind, I'll keep you in my thoughts I'm moving through this desert, the sun is chapping my back Iraq is no joke, I lack, no hope I'm playing my part, you're safe in my heart So keep me on your mind, I'll keep you in my thoughts I'm moving through this desert, the sun is chapping my back So keep me in your mind, I'll keep you in my thoughts [Jo Wilkinson]: Pipelines pumping oil or smack You get rich off my kid's back You take my son and make him pay Keep him harnessed either way [Chorus] [Jo Wilkinson]: I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you Drugs, booze, your dirty war He's not sure what life is for With your greed you keep him bound He's so lost he can't be found [Chorus] [Jo Wilkinson]: I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you A mother knows her child's true worth From the very moment she gives birth The only choice I ever made To give you life, now how you've paid [Chorus] [Jo Wilkinson]: I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you A mother's love runs deeper still Than all the oil in all the drills They may take your body, not your soul You're safe in my heart I won't let go... [Chorus] [Jo Wilkinson]: I love you, yes I love you I love you, yes I love you Safe, safe in my heart We're never apart...I love you, yes I love you...
