The Softer Side
Crossing the Bridge
I’ve lived one hell of a life,
If your to take it tonight,
I’ve lived the life of a king, but there's so much to darken my light
Looking 360 degrees, two hundred thousand diseases,
How can I lay back and chill, with so many down on their knees?
But then again who am I? I’m just some typical guy,
I ain’t no fuckin’ hero, I just been wondering why…
I seen some children
Crossing the bridge
What kind of life did they get to live?
What kind of choice do they get to make?
What if it was a child’s mistake?
I’ll never question the book, but let’s say I lived by the book,
I never ate meat on Tuesdays, how much bigger would my wings look?
I try to pray everyday, but sometimes get lost on the way,
I seen the holiest spirit, but so much to mislead the way
I gave the visions I got, I been told I’m gonna rot
Inside the devil’s intestines, but I’m still here holding my spot,
I’ve just been wondering why…
I seen some children
Crossing the bridge
What kind of life did they get to live?
What kind of choice do they get to make?
What if it was a child’s mistake?
BREAK DOWN:
COME ON AND OPEN UP YOUR DOOR/ WHAT IF IT’S PERGATORY'S DOOR
COME ON AND OPEN UP YOUR DOOR/ WHAT IF IT’S PERGATORY'S DOOR
I seen some children
Crossing the bridge
What kind of life did they get to live?
What kind of choice do they get to make?
What if it was a child’s mistake?
Fuckin’ take me instead! (repeats)
