Joseph Arthur - Heart's A Soldier lyrics

You can't get to Brooklyn riding on the uptown train You're gonna be a crook until you stop dealing in c**aine Still you provide for your family any way that you still can And you remember when they told you you would always be the man The way we prey On each other, on each other Go on, show a little faith in me Go on, show a little faith in me You know the times are tougher, tougher than they've ever been before Because the streets are rougher, rougher than the bedroom door You try to change the weather even though you know it's a mistake Because the heart's a soldier, even though you know it's gonna break The way we prey On each other, on each other Go on, show a little faith in me Go on, show a little faith in me It's a real tough life when you're searching for ecstasy Go on, show a little faith in me Sometimes the path to freedom is the one that no one else believes Sometimes to rise above them you have to get down on you knees Try to pray For each other, for each other Go on, show a little faith in me Go on, show a little faith in me It's a real tough life when you're searching for ecstasy So go on, show a little faith in me
