Only God Knows Lyrics

[Verse 1: Struggle Jennings]
Say there preacher man
Could you lend a hand to this broken soul
I could use a friend
Someone who understands
This road I’m on
I’ve been lost
Paid the cost a thousand times
Now I’m down to my last dime

[Chorus: Struggle Jennings]
God knows I’ve drank with the Devil
Been as high as the angels
Dove in that lake of fire
Yeah I’ve wrestled with demons
For secrets I’m keeping
Found that I’d lost what’s inside
Now these ghosts that ain’t holy
They take me down slowly
The bottom’s where I feel at home
No I ain’t sold my soul
But I damn near came close
Oh
Only God knows
Only God knows

[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]
Oh oh
Say there preacher man
Where’s this promised land
You keep promising
Can’t seem to find my way
To amazing grace
And I’m on my knees
I’m tired as hell of asking for help
I need to be saved
From this mess that I made
What else can I say

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
God knows I’ve drank with the devil
Been as high as the angels
Dove in that lake of fire
I’ve done wrestled with demons
For the secrets I’m keeping
I found that I’d lost what’s inside
Now these ghosts that ain’t holy
They take me down slowly
The bottom’s where I feel at home
I ain’t sold my soul
But I damn near come close
Only God knows
Only God knows

[Chorus: Struggle Jennings]
Yeah I’ve drank with the devil
Been as high as the angels
Dove in that lake of fire
Yeah I’ve wrestled with demons
For secrets I’m keeping
Found that I’d lost what’s inside
And now these ghosts that ain’t holy
They take me down slowly
The bottom’s where I feel at home
No I ain’t sold my soul
But I damn near came close
Only God knows
Only God knows

[Outro: Struggle Jennings]
Yeah I’ve drank
With the devil
Been as high as the angels
Dove in that lake of fire

Only God Knows Meaning

[Verse 1: Struggle Jennings]
Struggle Jennings opens the song with a plea for understanding and guidance, addressing a preacher as a symbolic figure of wisdom and salvation. His words reflect exhaustion and desperation, emphasizing a life filled with hardship and the consequences of past mistakes. The mention of being “down to my last dime” serves as both a literal and metaphorical representation of hitting rock bottom, setting the stage for the song’s themes of redemption and reckoning.

[Chorus: Struggle Jennings]
The chorus is a powerful confession of personal demons and near self-destruction. Struggle Jennings acknowledges his past indulgence in vice—drinking, drug use, and battles with temptation—while expressing a sense of regret and lost identity. The reference to “ghosts that ain’t holy” suggests lingering guilt and past sins that continue to haunt him. Despite his struggles, he asserts that he never fully surrendered his soul, though he came dangerously close, highlighting the thin line between salvation and damnation.

[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]
Jelly Roll’s verse continues the introspective narrative, questioning the existence of a promised land and struggling to find peace. His frustration with traditional religious teachings reflects a broader struggle with faith, as he admits to being exhausted from repeatedly seeking help. The line “I need to be saved from this mess that I made” is a raw admission of accountability, acknowledging personal responsibility for his circumstances while still yearning for redemption.

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
Echoing Struggle Jennings’ words, Jelly Roll reinforces the recurring themes of battling demons and feeling at home in the darkness. His personal take on the chorus adds depth to the narrative, illustrating that both artists share similar struggles but experience them in their own way. The sense of being dragged down “slowly” by unholy ghosts emphasizes the ongoing nature of their inner turmoil, making the song’s message even more poignant.

[Chorus: Struggle Jennings]
As the chorus repeats, the emotional weight intensifies, reinforcing the song’s theme of internal conflict. The repeated confession of nearly selling his soul serves as a reminder of how close both artists have come to losing themselves, yet ultimately, they remain standing, seeking a higher purpose.

[Outro: Struggle Jennings]
The outro leaves listeners with a lasting impression of the ongoing battle between good and evil. By repeating the imagery of drinking with the devil and soaring with angels, Struggle Jennings encapsulates the duality of his journey—caught between past sins and the hope for redemption. The closing lines serve as a final, haunting reflection on a life marked by struggle, leaving the listener with a sense of unresolved tension, fitting for a song that so vividly explores the complexities of the human experience.
