Twenty-four years ago today I was a baby born and
That's the day I started singing my song
It wasnt long before I felt the river water send a chill into my bones
They told me, they're washin me clean
this is the blood to keep me cool and serene
They told me, you gotta believe
And now today I swear to God
I'm gonna find out what they mean
Cuz the privileged life is taking its toll
I got nobody no where to go but
Maybe it's just me Im afraid of
Twenty-four years Ive been a man Ive done the best I can and
Now today I thought i'd write me a song
It took some time to find the man that I was trying to hide but
Now I can finally say I found my way home
They told me, they're washin me clean
this is the blood to keep me cool and serene
They told me, you gotta believe
And now today I swear to God
I'm gonna find out what they mean
Cuz the privileged life is taking its toll
I got nobody no where to go but
Maybe it's just me Im afraid of
Oh, Oh, Take me away baby
Take me away, where I gotta go
