Devil I've Been Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I ran down to the Calico Creek
Where the crystal water pools up deep
And I jumped on in to rinse my sins
Tryna wash off the devil I've been
I didn't wanna do what I had to do
But if you'da been there, it coulda been you
Now the man I was is closin' in
Tryna catch me for the devil I've been

[Chorus]
Lord, I know You hear me
Just know I'm runnin' to get back home
Right now, I need some savin'
Some kind of amen, this much I know
Hell's on my heels, I'm a wanted man
I'm kickin' this dirt as fast as I can
And prayin' them gates will let me in
For tryna outrun the devil I've been
[Verse 2]
Ain't no time for slowin' down
To catch my breath or turn around
It's back there knowin' I'm Heaven bound
Hopin' that I slip
I've done some things that I can't change
My past is just two steps away
But I'll keep lookin' straight ahead I'm still alive, it ain't caught me yet

[Chorus]
Lord, I know You hear me
Just know I'm runnin' to get back home
Right now, I need some savin'
Some kind of amen, this much I know
Hell's on my heels, I'm a wanted man
I'm kickin' this dirt as fast as I can
And prayin' them gates will let me in
For tryna outrun the devil I've been

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Lord, I know You hear me
Just know I'm runnin' to get back home
Right now, I need some savin'
Some kind of amen, this much I know
Hell's on my heels, I'm a wanted man
I'm kickin' this dirt as fast as I can
And prayin' them gates will let me in
For tryna outrun the devil I've been
[Outro]
Tryna outrun the devil I've been
Lord, tryna outrun the devil I've been
Oh, the devil I've been
Just tryna outrun the devil I've been
