Intro (featuring Charles Emanuel)

from Backslider: Side A by Ray Curenton

lyrics

A boy with a dream
One so destined to lead
Loses track of himself
As he enters his teens
So he struggles with shame
Often stealing away
To places of solitude
Where he cries and he prays
But with time he embraced
All the words that they placed
Conquering dogma
And unrelenting self-hate
Now a man on a journey
With a heart newly burning
He begins to help others
Those with similar stories

They called him backslider
