After Me
(Rich Catley)

(Verse 1)
Consider how precious a soul must be,
If both God and the devil are after me.
One’s got mercy, the other’s got lies,
And I’m somewhere caught between the skies.
I’ve been a sinner with a Bible in hand,
Half in the water, half in the sand.
Trying to walk straight, but my shadow leans,
Between the altar and the in-between.

(Chorus)
So pour one out for the fight inside,
For the angels that stay and the ghosts that hide.
If heaven won’t quit and hell won’t sleep,
Then I’m worth more than I used to think.
Yeah, consider how precious a soul must be,
If both God and the devil are after me.

(Verse 2)
There’s a cross on my dashboard, a scar on my
wrist,
A past full of things I can’t forget.
But grace keeps showing up just in time,
Like a porch light on a long, dark drive.
I’ve heard the truth in a barroom song,
Sometimes right feels just like wrong.
But even when I fall to my knees,
There’s still somebody fighting for me.

(Chorus)
So pour one out for the fight inside,
For the angels that stay and the ghosts that hide.
If heaven won’t quit and hell won’t sleep,
Then I’m worth more than I used to think.
Yeah, consider how precious a soul must be,
If both God and the devil are after me.

(Bridge)
I ain’t perfect, Lord knows that’s true,
But I’ve seen hell and I’ve seen You.
And if my heart’s still caught between,
It means I’m something worth redeeming.

(Final Chorus)
So pour one out for the fight inside,
For the broken road and the reasons why.
If heaven paid blood and hell won’t leave,
Then there’s still hope left inside of me.
Yeah, consider how precious a soul must be,
If both God and the devil are after me.

(Outro)
So I’ll keep driving till I find peace,
If both God and the devil are after me.
