Lyrics

Ain't no Jordan here, Lord
Just mud —
And it still drown the same
I went down where the sinners kneel
Mud so thick, can't tell what's real
Ain't no preacher, ain't no dove
Just worms and ghosts and a twisted love
The water black, the earth still warm
Smell like death in a mother's form
I said, "Lord, You see me yet?"
He said, "Boy, you still too wet."
Baptized in mud, washed in sin
The devil smile, say, "Come on in."
Ain't no holy, ain't no clean
Just brown water where I been
Baptized in mud, faith gone cold
But damn — this dirt feel bold
I seen my face under the wave
Looked like a man God won't save
I held my breath, I bit the ground
Heard the blues in a burial sound
The worms done sing, the stones reply
And I swear I saw the heavens cry
If this my church, it fit me right —
Dark at noon, no need for light
Baptized in mud, Lord, hear my plea
I'm the kind You made to be
No gold robe, no clean bed
Just mud to bless the half-dead
If water pure, it lie to man
Mud the truth that understand
I wash my sin, it wash me back
Now my soul don't need no track
When I rise, I rise alone
Made of dirt, made of bone
Don't lift me high, don't call it love —
I been baptized in mud
