When I wake, my chest is not empty
My mind is not always clear
Decades and decades of breathing and bearing this body
Work together: I am here

I am here where I woke only yesterday
Staring at the same spot on the wall
And I rise to devour all before me
Every fear, every hope, every call

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriеst man in the world for so long

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in a song
It seems likе I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long

This Memphis is a city of feasts
They sustain and destroy
Temptation is rife, reward is sometimes slippery
And I use all my might to enjoy

The teetering moment of choosing
Just what I will choose to take in
The rewards of your love are confusing
When obscured by the sweet noises of sin
Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long

I’ve never denied myself anything
Yet my whole life is as one spent fasting
Satisfaction, completion, oh, and true satiation
Only accompanies life everlasting

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long
Every call from you, Lord
Every man in song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in a song

Every call from you, Lord
Every man in a song
It seems like I've been
The hungriest man in the world for so long
