Life Is On My Side

It's been a long long road, and I been down it before
One with deep open holes and many empty foreign shores

How did I get here, why did I not learn?
Will I ever get there, will I get another turn?
But I know I'm right, cause I can feel it inside
Like a freight train of pain, through a snowy dark night

I feel I'm making it happen
Leaving my fears by the wayside
Feels like I'm dancing and I never danced before
Life might be finally on my side

You heard it from Fela, you learned it all from Bruce,
They sang what you now hear for first time, they sang about the truth

Overcome your nightmares, give room to your tears
Let your heart lift you up, you're heaven is right here
But I know I'm right, cause I can feel it inside
Like a freight train of pain, through a snowy dark night

I feel I'm making it happen
Leaving my fears by the wayside
Feels like I'm dancing and I never danced before
Life might be finally on my side

Oh why did I cause so much pain?
Over my shoulder discarded broken hearts
If only I didn't hurt myself againandagainandagain

I'm a little bit older now, I hope a little wiser too
I pray a little less angry, love for myself is long overdue

And I left my marks, they will always remain
I surround them in love, but the dark parts they still stain
Cause I know I'm right, I can feel it inside
Like a freight train of love, through a snowy dark night

I feel I'm making it happen
Leaving my fears by the wayside
Feels like I'm dancing and I never danced before
Life might be finally on my side
