Lost Boy (Father's Skin) Lyrics

I was a lost boy

Cutting through the trees

Tryna find my way home

I had no choice

Cause when everybody leaves

I'm left with the void

Looking for safety

Being myself

But they try to change me

I don't wanna be a lost boy

I don't wanna be lost

Just like my grandfather

I've been so tired

Drowning in water

But still in the fire

I've had some demons

Sometimes I still see 'em

Tryna use all this darkness

To take all my freedom

I'm in my fathers skin

Fighting off his father's sin

That's why I'm up all night

Tryna find the medicine

I'm in my father's skin

Fighting off his father's sin

That's why I'm up all night

All night

Yea

One foot in religion, tryna keep my image up

When I'm alone, I still feel like a prisoner

Tryna get them shackles off my feet

But I still love it when she dance on me

Truth be told, I'm like a man in quicksand

With my hands up to the sky for God's plan

If I have to let you leave, don't tear me down

Cause now that I got kids, I want them to be proud

I'm in my fathers skin

Fighting off his father's sin

That's why I'm up all night

Tryna find the medicine

I'm in my father's skin

Fighting off his father's sin

That's why I'm up all night

All night

Satan, the Lord God rebuke you

I ain't going back

I ain't going back, back, back

Satan, the Lord God rebuke you

I ain't going back

I ain't going back

I'm in my fathers skin

Fighting off his father's sin

That's why I'm up all night

Tryna find the medicine

I'm in my father's skin

Fighting off his father's sin

That's why I'm up all night

All night

Hey
