lyrics

v1:
Look around you, all you see is sunshine
Sunshine & tears
Walk around the world to see what you find
Throughout the years

ch:
When the beat drops, when the beat drops on black river
I pray, my Lord, this sound to deliver me home

v2:
When the tide is rolling in, you're rolling out
To greet the day
Shut out the lights and try to think about
A better way

ch:
When the beat drops, when the beat drops on Black River
I pray, my Lord, this sound to deliver me home
When the heat drops, when the heat drops on Black River
I pray, my Lord, I pray to shake & shiver

v3:
See the night is closing in on you, my friend
So take a bow
All the things you used to know, you let 'em go
An illusion to you now

ch:
When the beat drops, when the beat drops on Black River
I pray, my Lord, this sound to deliver me home
When the heat drops, when the heat drops on Black River
I pray, my Lord, I pray to shake & shiver

tag:
When the beat drops, when the beat drops on Black River
When the beat drops, when the beat drops on Black River
