Steering Clear

I go under and take in black water I sink in the depths of what I'd known People down here are just like me Who've seen the good in every man I could write a book or a novel on what I've seen I don't wanna go back there When the devil takes control And you see in his eyes constant demise straight through you Oh the fire burns high I thought I was in the right but I was in for the ride And coming up short again Believing everything you hear is what got us here And now I'm steering clear I see clearly now the way of the world Thought I had it figured out but here I am now Sick tired and pissed I'll walk my own path from here on out Step by step I'll leave them behind To a better life A better life When the devil takes control And you see in his eyes constant demise straight through you Oh the fire burns high I thought I was in the right but I was in for the ride And coming up short again Believing everything you hear is what got us here And now I'm steering clear
