Mercy
Gin Lady Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me where to go, I'll follow my flow
Please have some mercy on my soul
Your mind is so free, I envy your dreams
Please have some mercy on my soul

I don't need another piece of the action
I don't want to be guided my lies, no
I just want to feel some satisfaction, baby
When I look back on the days of my life
When I look back on the days of my life

I'm not all that nice, I'm like a roll of a dice
Please have some mercy on my soul
The stare of a snake is easy to break
Please have some mercy on my soul

I don't need another piece of the action
I don't want to be guided my lies, no
I just want to feel some satisfaction, baby
When I look back on the days of my life
When I look back on the days of my life

Please have some mercy on my soul
Have some mercy on my soul
Have some mercy on my soul
Please have some mercy on my soul

I don't need another piece of the action
I don't want to be guided my lies, no
I just want to feel some satisfaction, baby
When I look back on the days of my life
When I look back on the days of my life
When I look back on the days of my life
When I look back on the days of my life




When I look back on the days of my life
When I look back on the days of my life
