Michael On Fire: Music

Lord Have Mercy

(Michael On Fire)

I told lies and I was bad 
I was jealous and I was mad
I’ve been two-faced and I’ve been cruel 
I’ve been proud and I’ve been a fool 
I was sly and I been high 
I’ve rebelled and I defied 
I had power I misused 
I’ve met angels I’ve abused 
Lord have mercy on me 
Lord have mercy on me 
I have my moods and I've been a cheat 
I’ve been drunk out on my feet 
I’ve had lovers that I hurt bad 
But I never knew just what I had 
I’ve been a gambler placed some bets 
And I owe at least a thousand debts 
I stood my ground and I ran away 
But I always knew just what to say 
Lord have mercy on me 
Lord have mercy on me 
I been to heaven and I been to hell 
I know what to say and I say it real well 
I’ve laughed with saints and danced with whores 
Had too much and asked for more 
I’ve talked behind my best friends back 
I’ve pulled the rope and cut some slack 
I’ve got some wounds I haven’t felt 
But played those cards like they were dealt 
Lord have mercy on me 
Lord have mercy on me 
Lord have mercy on me
