Wakin' up to find yourself creamin'
Check your fears and hope that you're dreamin'
A little space is all that I need
If these suckers just allow me to breathe
Snake pits and Lucifer's burns
Can't take the strength I've earned and learned
Stepped in depth of the same livin' hell
Ain't too proud to die here as well.<p>Do Do Wap is strong in here;
Do Do Wap is strong in here, hey! hey!

All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin';
You don't need no ticket, just thank the lord.

Oh, ho, to let him know my love is real.<p>Hey, hey, hey...I'm giving him something he can feel.

To let you know my love is real.

I was someone more
Because I was no one poor.
To find that I too was down on my knees.
I'm just homeless.
