Go Down

Intro

(Deep bass hums, cellos swell low)

Mmm... yeah... go down...

Verse

Life's got a way of pullin' you under,

Heavy waves crashin', thunder,

You fight it hard, but the current's strong,

Holdin' on tight, but it won't be long.

Pride keeps you floatin', gaspin' for air,

But the bottom's callin', it's waitin' down there.

Pre-chorus

Why wait for the storm to break your back?

Dive in deep, no turnin' back.

Chorus

Go down, go down, let it take you low,

Go down yourself 'fore the river drags you slow.

Go down, go down, that's the way to rise,

Come up new, open eyes, no disguise.

(Background deep: Go down... go down...)

Go down, yeah, go down.

Verse

Like that river dip on a Sunday morn,

Crowd gathers 'round, horns blowin' strong.

You step in the water, cold rush to your chest,

World fades away, lay your burdens to rest.

Submerged in the flow, old skin sloughs away,

Breathe out the hurt, let the darkness hold sway.

Pre-chorus

No fightin' the tide, just surrender the fight,

Bottom's the beginnin', step into the light.

Chorus

Go down, go down, let it take you low,

Go down yourself 'fore the river drags you slow.

Go down, go down, that's the way to rise,

Come up new, open eyes, no disguise.

(Background deep: Go down... go down...)

Go down, yeah, go down.

Bridge

Cellos weep low, violins climb slow,

Bass thumps the truth you already know.

Washed clean, drippin', standin' tall,

What drowned you down made you rise up strong.

(Deep backgrounds: Rise up... rise up... yeah...)

Chorus

Go down, go down, let it take you low,

Go down yourself 'fore the river drags you slow.

Go down, go down, that's the way to rise,

Come up new, open eyes, no disguise.

(Background deep: Go down... go down...)

Go down, go down, let it take you low,

Go down yourself, yeah, now you know.

Outro

(Deep bass fades, strings linger)

Go down... (go down...)

Rise up... new...

Mmm... yeah.
