Burning Desire
[Intro]
You there? You okay?
Yeah, but those flames
It's so hot, I'm scared
Uh, uh-uh, uh, yeah

All that whining be a burden or a sign we flunking
Ain’t been so hard to see my verdict was to die with nothin’

When we was huddled in this church
Where most had lied and fronted
All this time that I spent searching was the diamond cutting
Use to coddle up at Vernon like I’m dodging summons

[Refrain]

Fogs and raining clouds cluttered the way
It's calm, I pray the route—
Lighting and thunder, summer of pain
Fogs and raining clouds cluttered the way

It was nice, it was sunny, in the shade it wasn't as bad
But then we started to notice it was clouds starting to form over the park and...
