Getting run down from working all the time and not being able to play my drums in this crappy apartment in Kent Ohio, I turned to my acoustic guitar for an inspiration the song started with a melodic chant running through my head like an epiphany then gradually formed into the little reggae style country tune it is...
Lyrics
Immerse yourself in this love
Even when you feel you’ve failed
Hard not to give when you got it
Your gifts’ll always weigh upon your soul
So why not forgive when you’re honest
Sometimes we all lose control
Isn’t enemy the state where all are under?
You gotta choose to be yourself…
And immerse yourself in this love
Even when you feel you fail
Can’t escape the wave and the thunder
Its lame to always say its cool…
What was your first time?
She asked me why it was that we were here
And I told her I’d try
To keep the truth from turning into fear
Immerse yourself in this love
Even when you feel you’ve failed
Things might have turned out different
But you said what you said
And it might be a crime
Lord, we’ve wasted so much precious time
On this jealous love
But my love is all I’ve got now to resolve
My love is all there is to warm the cold
So, immerse yourself in this love
Even when you feel you’ve failed
