[Verse 1]

Take me down and bury me six feet under

I lay peaceful, forgotten

Here's what lies

We're mixed up in this land of emotion


[Pre-Chorus]

Born into slavery, I fought to be free

Now I find myself sick and live my destiny

Live my destiny in the ground where I will forever lay

Peaceful from my thoughts and fears, peaceful from every danger in the air


[Chorus]

Take me down, bury me

Take me down six feet


[Verse 2]

Is this my true destiny?

I know I can't change this now

Slowly, I slip away into my perfect world where no one can get to me

I lay peaceful bleeding

It makes me feel whole again

Whole again


[Chorus]

Take me down, bury me

Take me down, bury me


[Breakdown]

Is this my destiny?

In the ground where I will forever lay

Peaceful from my thoughts and fears

Peaceful from every danger in the air


[Chorus]

Take me down, bury me

Take me down six feet


[Outro]

Walk alongside my casket with me six feet under

Still awake and breathing

When will I leave this world?

When will my destiny be forced through for me?
