Lyrics: | V1: I’m always talking to temptation He wants to stain my reputation Got me kneeling on sharp stones Falling down at the crossroads You know this world can leave you thirsty Make you so so dirty C: I’m gonna run to the river Gonna clean my soul I’m gonna be delivered In the waters below V2: Feeling lost & unsettled Time to drown out the devil All that shame won’t break me Spirit gonna come n’ shake me When I drop my shackles Let the Lord fight my battles |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
