[Intro]
(Woah-oh)

(Woah-oh)
(Woah-oh)

[Verse 1]
Mama don't sleep well
She worried ’bout the kids all night
And the kids don't eat well
They worry 'bout their mama so they hustle on the side
Daddy workin’ three jobs
The sweat keeps drippin' in the Buffalo sunshine
So he drives that car
Promises, "Someday, mama, we will be alright"

[Chorus]
And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down
And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand
Quicksand’s pullin’ me down, down, down

[Verse 2]
Sister's got a new car
No new friends, she got money in the bank
And every day, she works hard, she plays hard
Baby knows how to drink
Her brother’s in a bad place
Takes prescriptions for pain to keep his demons at bay
So she, so she drives that car
Promises, "Someday, brother, we gon' be alright"
[Chorus]
And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand
Quicksand’s pullin' me down, down, down
And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down

[Post-Chorus]
(Woah-oh)
It's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand (Woah-oh)
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)

[Bridge]
Every day, I pray and I pray
Feels like there ain't no escape
Every day, I pray and I pray
I pray that I find my way
Every day, I pray and I pray
Feels like there ain't no escape
Every day, I pray and I pray
I gotta find an escape

[Chorus]
And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down
And I'll be fine, I'll get my feet on solid ground
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (It's pullin' me down)
[Outro]
(Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down)
It's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down)
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand (Woah-oh)
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)
(Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down)
It's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh; it's pullin' me down, oh)
Sometimes, it feels like quicksand (Woah-oh)
Quicksand's pullin' me down, down, down (Woah-oh)
