When you know you're better off to run away
When your family and your friends all move away
And while I've been by myself and hoping I can make it one day
And when you lose yourself, but find it anyway

And when you worked as hard as us
You feel alone and only you know your trust
Is in the only one who gon' hold you up
And where faith is dead is where I hold my cup
And when I'm feeling like I can't change the earth
Or my pain is shamin' of feeling worth
But when I take my hands right out the dirt
I can see the rising Sun

I can see the victims of the cavalry
And all my friends keep looking down on me
And all my fears keep on surrounding me
But we need to let it go
