Hard Row to Hoe
Struggling through the Night: A Soul's Journey in a Hard Row to Hoe
Lyrics
I steadily stumble
I consistently struggle
Walking around at night
Roaming around during the night
I'm to mean to die
I am too tough to succumb to death
I'm to numb to write
I am too emotionally numb to write
Now I'm out here
Currently, I am searching for my inner self
Just searching for my soul
So lord help me now it's a hard row to hoe
Seeking divine assistance as the challenges are difficult
I used to have me a woman
I used to have a committed partner
But I can't be true
However, I cannot remain faithful
All that late night rambling
Nightly wanderings are putting immense pressure on me
Bound to put the damn pressure on you
These actions are bound to cause strain
Yea she's still around
She is still present but emotionally distant
But she left along time ago
She left a long time ago
So lord help me now cause it's a hard row to hoe
Requesting divine help due to the challenging circumstances
And the weeds always high
Metaphorically, challenges are abundant and the environment is harsh
And the air is as dry as a bone
The atmosphere is extremely dry
And a mule and a plow
Using a mule and plow is no longer effective
It ain't no good now
Things are no longer good when they are gone
When it's gone long gone
I've been through that high water
I have experienced difficult situations
The fire and the snow
Metaphorical references to challenges faced
So lord help me now it's a hard row to hoe
Seeking divine intervention due to the challenging path
There's hands in my pockets
People are attempting to take advantage of me
They trying to take my change
They are trying to take my possessions
One little last piece of the pie
Only a small portion remains for me
Is all that's left when it hits my plate
When it's my turn, there's very little left
Yea they will plunder ya crops for every seed u sow
Others will exploit your efforts for their gain
So lord help me now
Seeking divine help in this difficult situation
Lord help me now
Won't you please help me now cause it's a hard row to hoe
Pleading for assistance because the path is challenging
