|
Obstacles they come and go |
|
That's the name of this game you know |
|
This life can't be bought nor sold |
|
Just play your cards then fold |
|
Take two steps forward, one step back |
|
Every time I get on track the light fades to black |
|
As the curtain drops back, I still step to my destiny |
|
I see it right in front of me, it's in your eyes (I see) |
|
Dancin' to the beat and these sweat melodies |
|
Ridin' on a breeze, the trees part for me |
|
But these sharks still circle through the park |
|
I look to you, it's in my nature since a youth |
|
When I ran after you and lights went blue |
|
Me and you, you and me |
|
I share my heart with ya, you're my family now |
|
Obstacles they come and go |
|
That's the name of this game you know |
|
This life can't be bought nor sold |
|
Just play your cards then fold |
|
Can't give back the time you stole |
|
The path unravels, the day unfolds |
|
This life can't be bought nor sold |
|
So play your cards then... |
|
Once upon a time I ran to you, |
|
Banned myself to find your wealth |
|
Return to the land of truth |
|
Found myself all alone as the stars they kissed |
|
Still runnin' after you through this wilderness |
|
At dawn I tracked snow through back yards and front lawns |
|
I'm up late wide awake I'm reborn as day breaks and gets on |
|
To you, it's in my nature since a youth |
|
When I ran after you and lights went blue |
|
Me and you, you and me |
|
I share my heart with ya, you're my family now |
|
Obstacles they come and go |
|
That's the name of this game you know |
|
This life can't be bought nor sold |
|
Just play your cards then fold |
|
Can't give back the time you stole |
|
The path unravels, the day unfolds |
|
This life can't be bought nor sold |
|
Just play your cards... |
|
Siftin' through the sand |
|
A man is just a man |
|
No matter how you fan the flame |
|
It all comes out the same |
|
In the end you are my friend |
|
