Hiss Golden Messenger - Whip Lyrics

I saw that spirit on the water
And I rolled with it
I caught that spirit on the water
And I moved with it
I saw that spirit on the water
And I danced with it
That's that spirit on the water
I can't stop chasing it

I was tired of the whip
Don't you give me no lip
It'll change ya
Tired of the chase
Seem to bind us
Link by link
Yard by yard
God, my child
Don't be so hard

I saw that spirit on the water
You know I moved with it
I saw that spirit on the water
I made my peace with it
I saw that spirit on the water
And I raced with it
That's that spirit on the water
I can't stop chasing it

I was tired of the whip
Don't you give me no lip
I was tired of the whip
Don't you give me no lip
It'll change ya
Tired of the chase
Seem to bind us
Link by link
Yard by yard
Child by child
Don't be so hard, nah
