|
I was born in the city |
|
There's no flies on me |
|
Life can't deliver |
|
No surprise to me |
|
Got a head full of trouble |
|
The world's weight on my back |
|
I'm a fighter |
|
I survive like that |
|
I'm a modern enigma |
|
I am living proof |
|
Cold eyes speaking volumes |
|
Of my troubled youth |
|
I believe in the future |
|
From mistakes I have grown |
|
Leaving the shadows |
|
Which were once my home |
|
Need your hand to help me over |
|
Need your shoulder |
|
Need your light to bring me closer |
|
To your shelter |
|
Been so long in the bitter |
|
City air I breath |
|
Seen a million believers |
|
Cry in disbelief |
|
I won't give in to the pressure |
|
Keep my spirit intact |
|
'Cause I know when I need you |
|
You will watch my back |
|
CHORUS: |
|
Need your hand to help me over |
|
Need your shoulder |
|
Need light to bring me closer |
|
To your shelter |
|
Need your hand to help me over |
|
Need your shoulder |
|
Need your light to bring me closer |
|
To your shelter |
|
They can't take you away from me |
|
When they try it only makes me stronger |
|
Through the dark it's your light I see |
|
Helping to show me the way |
|
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter |
|
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter |
|
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter |
|
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter |
|
Repeat Chorus Once |
