BLACKSKİN MİLE
CEELO GREEN
I lost my shadow in violent sin
Never knew the search would be within
Drew a picture of my only desire
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
I thought my karma would be my fate
Never saw the sun until it was too late
And oh, drew my loneliness, chasing every last high
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
I've never met a madman's soul, that I
Didn't see reflections of that which I own
But I know there's something better outside
So won't you take me back to Blackskin Mile?
I walk a valley of a thousand streams
In retrieval of my self-esteem
I see a world in you where I may dream high
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
I have fallen but I kept my soul
Though I felt darkness in the light
I never let go
That last solitary seconds of my life, won't you
Take me back to Blackskin Mile?
And with our resolutions high
And with our pretty words in lies
Survival comes with sacrifice
I run toward the burning
To feel alive, ooh
Found my shadow in a violent sky
And in my bleeding she'd watch me cry, Lord
Tears of happiness
My only one desire
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
I said
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
One more time
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
Oh, yes
Take me back to Blackskin Mile
Hmm-mm
Hmm-mm
Hmm-mm
Hmm-mm-mm
