I look down at my hands that once were calloused
Working in the field all day
My life it once was full of blessings
But you wouldn't know it from my face
Cause my veins are full of garbage
And my eyes are full of pain
And you can't take nothing from me
Cause I throwed it all away
But I'll pray for tomorrow
That I might find a way
To exorcise these demons
That lead my life astray
And silence the temptation
And overcome the pain
But not today
Oh not today
In this darkened alley now I stand
Where no one knows my name
I can't count how many times I've stumbled
Into this god forsaken place
I'm looking for the man
Who prospers from my misdirection
He'll gladly take my dollars
All wadded up in shame
But I'll pray for tomorrow
That I might find a way
To exorcise these demons
That lead my life astray
And silence the temptation
And overcome the pain
But not today
Oh not today
Before the deal takes place
I find the strength to walk away
He said you'lll be back tomorrow
And I say not today
Will I make it till tomorrow
Will I find my way
To exorcise these demons
That lead my life astray
Or be deafened by temptation
And surrender to the pain
But not today
Oh not today
I look down at my hands that once were calloused
