| Lyrics | Lyrics |
| I can smell the | |
| I can't believe | |
| But this is my deathbed | |
| If I close my eyes tonight | |
| The year was | |
| I was 8 years old | |
| to know that the stories | |
| was a tale a kind mother | |
| you see, dad was | |
| teaching the words | |
| My mother had sworn | |
| and died there with honor | |
| but he left once | |
| which taught me | |
| whatever I thought | |
| I abandoned that thought | |
| By '47 | |
| I'd acquired a taste | |
| I smoked until I threw up | |
| for 30 more years | |
| so right there you have it | |
| is what got me | |
| I can smell the | |
| covering me | |
| this is | |
| I can hear those | |
| still haunting me | |
| But this is my deathbed | |
| If I close my eyes tonight | |
| | Lyrics | Lyrics |
| Got married | |
| 8 months before | |
| It's easier to be | |
| when her father inquires | |
| The union was | |
| No 2 people could've been | |
| The years would go by | |
| and I realized | |
| From there it's | |
| yeah, if life was a highway | |
| I was seeing the loose ends | |
| Yeah I swear I was destined to fail | |
| I bowled about | |
| A bottle of Beam | |
| The marriage had taken | |
| and along with my pride | |
| I can smell the | |
| Covering me | |
| This is the end | |
| sad memories | |
| so many things | |
| But this is | |
| I lie here alone | |
| I know I'll be | |
| I was so scared of Jesus | |
| like the cancer in my lungs | |
| and I've given up hope | |
| but I cling to the hope | |
| then Jesus showed up | |
| | Lyrics | Lyrics |
| I thought that we | |
| see one night in your lfe | |
| you asked for and prayed for | |
| you cried | |
| The tears they | |
| the blood dripped | |
| you said | |
| you loved that lamb | |
| and there you wept alone | |
| you said | |
| sanctify this | |
| stay with me | |
| and on that day | |
| I can smell the | |
| covering me | |
| This is | |
| I can hear you | |
| It's time to leave | |
| But this was | |
| I died there alone | |
| you carried me | |
| I am | |
| follow me | |
| and I am | |
| embrace me | |
| and I am | |
| and for me | |
| for I am love | |
| I, I am | |
|
