Seer

I am a sinner, baby, I am a deceiver
I am so selfish and so proud
There is no question of my need to be delivered
I’ll never get in if I’m afraid of comin' out
I am a seer, baby, I am a believer
My name is written in the clouds
You never dream but life flows by you like a river
You’ll never jump in if you are still afraid to drown
Are you still afraid to drown?
CHORUS:
Starin' at that cold river
Hangin' on to the roots of a broken tree (dream?)
Said can you control your shivers?
'Cause whatever that cold river takes she keeps
The spirit’s flowin', mama, make your body quiver
It’s wellin' up from underground
The lord has spoken, lover, give it to the river
You’ll never get high if you’re afraid of comin' down
Are you afraid of comin' down?
CHORUS
Don’t you know that the river plays deep?
