My Brothers Keeper - Im Through Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now the Good, Good Father told me
“Take up your shield and sword”
But I hocked ‘em off to buy a guitar
And forgot all about the Lord
Now it’s been a couple beatings
Beat me black and blue
But I ain’t cuttin’ slack or slidin’ back
I tell you, baby, I’m through

[Chorus]
I’m through
Standing on the sidelines
I’m through
Saying there’s nothing to do
I’m through
Watching from the skylines
When there’s work to do in the city streets
I tell you, baby, I’m through

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Now I never been much a night owl
Or much on gettin’ around
But if you see me walkin’ around the buildin’
Don’t be surprised if the walls come down

[Chorus]
I’m through
Standing on the sidelines
I’m through
Saying there’s nothing to do
I’m through
Watching from the skylines
When there’s work to do in the city streets
I tell you, baby, I’m through

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Now the Good, Good Father told me
“Write me a song again”
But I went back to sleep instead ‘cause I couldn’t find my pen
But I woke up from a slumber, went and told my bes
“I’ll work when I am livin’ and sleep when I am dead!”


[Chorus]
I’m through
Standing on the sidelines
I’m through
Saying there’s nothing to do
I’m through
Watching from the skylines
When there’s work to do in the city streets
I tell you, baby, I tell you, baby, I tell you, baby, I’m through (woo!)
