Battle Cry

[Verse 1]
Feast for an old crow
Gonna carve out my guts
Leave me like a hollow tree
East of the meadow
West of the hushed
Well, ain't no sun or stone for me

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been waitin' on and on and on the Father

[Chorus]
When what I need's a lifeline, a heartland I can mainline
I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry
Lord, I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry

[Verse 2]
Bail like an old boat
Gonna break 'fore I bust
Well, shadow gonna swallow me whole
Gassed like an old goat
Gonna wallow and rust
Devil gonna suffer me slow

[Pre-Chorus]
I been takin' on and on and on the water

[Chorus]
What I need's a lifeline, a heartland I can mainline
I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry
Lord, I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry

[Bridge]
Sword in that sweet spot
Judas'll sweet talk
Holdin' court on top of that hill
Steer for the last time
Here for the sweet wine
Follow for I'm fit to be killed

[Pre-Chorus]
I been waitin' on and on and on the slaughter

[Chorus]
But what I need's a lifeline, a heartland I can mainline
I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry
Lord, I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry
No, I can't lose the battle when I still got my battle cry
Oh, Lord, yeah, yeah
