Lyrics
When you're so long gone
You can't help yourself
When you're so dead wrong
Let alone no one else
Well the children still dying in the street
The babies still living with disease
And the cops got guns
And the poor folk got sons
Who work for Mr. Franklin every week
So if you come looking for hard times
Hard times ain't hard to find
Because we're given that lifeline
Only once in a lifetime
Baby we were born
Maybe we were born
To be sure to endure when the storm comes
God damn sad eyes
God damn cat eyes
God damn angel so tired
From saving his life
And I could bet that you could change yourself
Before you end up killed
Yeah, air's bare feet touching
Huh, bare feet
The air breathes sweet
Near the mountain's peak
And I forgot what the wise man said
About that ancient thread
So if you come looking for hard times
Hard times ain't hard to find
Because we're given that lifeline
Only once in a lifetime
Baby we were born
Maybe we were born
To be sure to endure when the storm comes
Well maybe we were born
Maybe we were born
To rejoice the judgements to come
