Sink Like a Stone - Ikonika, Naomi Pilgrim

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

I am the fatherless child you pass on your way to church and

I am a sinner in your eye

I am a mother showing strength when things are all but certain

But I’m a quitter in your eye

Ain’t giving up my tears of hope

Got my two feet off the ground

No one should treat you like a joke

Don’t you let them tear you down

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the riv-, me in the riv-, in the river

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

Stone, stone, stone, stone, hey, hey

I am a brother doing time for someone else’s crimes and

I am a villain in your eye

I am a silent sister fighting words with words of wisdom

I’m just angry in your eye

Ain’t giving up my tears of hope

Got my two feet off the ground

No one should treat you like a joke

Don’t you let them tear you down

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the riv-, me in the riv-, in the river

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

I am the fatherless child

I am a silent sister, sister

Silent sister, sister

I’m just angry

I am the fatherless child

I am a silent sister, sister

Silent sister, sister

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the riv-, me in the riv-, in the river

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the riv-, me in the riv-, in the river

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

We all leave this place on our own

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone

I sink like a stone

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone, stone

Throw me in the river I sink like a stone
