It took three damn days for the mission man
Heard he's comin' straight from hell
With a fast track bleedein' and siren screamin
If you don't listen you could never tell
Three days dead and risin'
Where you goin' now.I widh you well
Three days dead and risin'
With a half head full a ' dreams I could never sell
Let us prey
Three days gone for the misson man
Three days gone and risin'
Three days gone hear the mission man say
Time to get down to business
Let us prey
He walked in like the duke he was the mission man
He had death leakin' from his eyes
Machine gun bigger with his linger of the trigger
Said it took me three days to rise
Three days dead and risin'
I think these here are yours. I couldn't tell
Three days dead and risin'
Then he handed on back the dreams that he couldn't sell
Lord I got a bleeder it a tast track feeder
And it nailed me down tight for the rest a' my life
It's a double damn shot a ' what I need when I want it
And it's givin' me redemption through the darkest og night
Lord I lost the lightenin' it was so damn frightenin'
And it pulled me up close like I was losin my life
Was a double damn shot, knocked me down, yeah I got it
and it givin' me some light through the rest a' my life
