Andrew Justin Nicoletta - Shine A Light Lyrics
Man on the corner,Asks me for a dime,Change for a drink to ease his mind,Whatever he was seeking, he didnt find,Contemplates the dreams that passed him bySixteen years old, she needs a ride,Stares out the window, feels the kick on her side!Her time will come, her time will come,But not this timeThey take her baby,She whispers goodbyeEverything that breathes, is born to die,This life so beautiful, brutally passes by,They say silence is golden,Thats a lie,Put a stake in the heart of darkness,Shine a lightIn this beautiful, beautiful lifeIn this beautiful, beautiful lifeBridge: Dont patronize me with dead end smilesYou sell your soul, but preach the skies,Youre a Yale school, three piece suit, work boot, American lie,Sold the war, but you cant put a price on a lifeTheres a little black boy, with cardboard on his feet,Throws a ball off a wall on a dead end street,He was born in this country, in this country,But he isnt free,Hes got none of what he wants,And less of what he needs.Everything thats born, is a beautiful life,We all got choices, sometimes theres nothing to decide,They say silence is golden,Thats a lie,Put a stake in the heart of darkness,Shine a lightIn this beautiful beautiful lifeIn this beautifulbeautiful life (six times, fades out)
