Lyrics: An arrow is stuck between my ribs And I pray to God, Don’t let it end like this I fought like a man with will to live But I was betrayed by the man within How on earth did it all go down like this? I’ve got no words to make sense of it My shield, my fight for righteousness Could not protect me from myself I’m looking for the higher power To be my mighty tower Save me from myself, Oh yeah But I’m-a fall seven more times And it ain’t nobody’s fault except mine There’s only one way out Please, Lord, forgive me I’m down on my bended knees And I need your love Mercy is your medicine Help me turn around again To You, my friend How long did I fool myself Believing I, I didn’t need nobody’s help A fool trusts in his power and his wealth Until he’s brought down low Unto a shadow of himself The arrow was sent to intervene It pierced my bones and shook me from my dream Lord You know exactly what I need Wounds from a friend, severe mercy I’m looking for the higher power To be my mighty tower Save me from myself, Oh yeah But I’m-a fall seven more times And it ain’t nobody’s fault except mine There’s only one way out Please, Lord, forgive me I’m down on my bended knees And I need your love Mercy is your medicine Help me turn around again To You, my friend
