Deliverance ft. Anais Lyrics

We had the same God

The same church

The same spiritual father

I thought we were kindred souls

Wanted to bring into this world 

Another

That would be ours

From then on his soul was empty

With every strike, the pain aplenty

I can withstand it, it'll pass

Even the reverend says it'll pass

And so have passed eleven years

So did the beatings, so did the fear

Five more souls brought into this world

Until one day I said no more

Found a safe haven in police

Found a safe haven in my mother

Found out our reverend wasn't even bothered

God loves humans, not suffering

God loves humans, not suffering

Found a new reverend and then

Learnt to love myself again

And taught my children to love themselves

As well
