| 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 | |
