Stuck in the Mud

I'd like to wash my hands from these past decisions

That I made when I followed a bad religion

It's not that I'm saying that the church was wrong

But the people in there just acted different

I made mistakes and I can't relive them

I'm at a point that I'm past forgiveness

Down in a hole in a bad position

And no one left there to lend a hand to get me

I'd like to wash my hands from the bad decisions

That I made when I followed a bad religion

It's not like I'm saying that the church was wrong

But some people in there just acted different

Mistakes in the past, can't relive them

At a point where I'm feeling like I'm past forgiveness

Now I'm stuck in a a hole in a bad position

And no one left there to lend a hand to get me

Lord, I tried, Lord, I tried

Crossed my heart and hoped to die

Said go slow, Lord, I tried

I threw that bitch in overdrive

I bust my ass, you know I'm tied

You wanna hear the truth, but you know I lie

But I ain't brave now, rain or shit

Give me one more chance, I'ma stay and listen

I've been caught a fucking dream

I told me get a job you piece of shit

You're never gonna make it cause you're stuck in here you need to quit

I fill a hole then dig a hole

Get stuck inside a deeper ditch

Never have a question but I question who I'm speaking with

Lord help me out because I'm lower than I've ever been

I drank this whiskey cause we're close I need some better friends

I'm closer to the edge, they tell me run to life again

But this time I ain't never coming back again

You can try to wash my filthy

You can try to cleanse my soul

I can try to prove my innocence

But I'm guilty

I'm stuck in the mud, I'm stuck in the mud

Forgiveness won't clean my soul

Mistakes that I can't let go

All this dirt's done turned me cold

I'm stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud

So break me down and then throw me out

Cause the end's feeling like it's getting closer now

They wanna build me up just to hold me down

When you're under this long you're supposed to drown

Shirt soaked in mud, I can't clean these stain

Sun is gone, I can't beat this rain

Point at you but it seems to change

But the fact is, only got me to blame

You're fucking right, I know I'm wrong

I never said I'm not

But every time I feel I'm sinking, you hand me a ride

I just need a helping hand, I know I'll never get

So I act like I don't give a fuck, just for the hell of it

I keep on getting up, they knock me down again

It's never letting up, I think this pool don't have an edge

They tell me the problem is me and I'm starting to think that it is

I know that I'm guilty committing these sins

I'm begging they don't take it out on my kid

I should walk away, walk away

Turn around and don't come back

Honestly, honestly

I don't deserve half what I have

My mama ain't taught me to quit

But I ain't been falling again

The Lord has been washing my sins

When is it all gonna end?

When is it all gonna end?

You can try to wash my filthy

You can try to cleanse my soul

I can try to prove my innocence

But I'm guilty

I'm stuck in the mud

I'm stuck in the mud

Forgiveness won't clean my soul

Mistakes that I can't let go

All this dirt's done turned me cold

I'm stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud

You can try to wash my filthy

You can try to cleanse my soul

I can try to do my own sins

But I'm guilty

I'm stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud

Forgiveness won't clean my soul

Mistakes that I can't let go

All this dirt's done turned me cold

I'm stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud
