God, won't you deliver me
From the pain and my confusion?
Growin' up in the city streets
In a desperate situation
A crying mother's deep despair
Comes as no surprise
There's a crying angel over me
That is keeping me alive
Oh, God, deliver me
I had lost my innocence
And I had lost my pride
And every time I looked at her
You know my mama cried
She said, "What could I do different?
There ain't no one by my side"
Oh, oh, oh, what could I do different?
I'm just trying to survive
Oh, God, deliver me, yeah, yeah
From the madness of this world
Oh, God, deliver me, yeah
Frightened of this world
I've heard the voice of evil
Speak to me alone
Sitting cold and lonely
And so far away from home
In the darkness of a prison cell
I can hear the angry screams
Calling out to no one
In a place where no one dreams
God, won't you deliver me?
I've never been before
People say you're watching me, watching me
But I'm not really sure
Oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no
I'm not really sure, really sure
No, no, no, no, yeah
