Roberto Cacciapaglia - Second Chance (Don't Back Down) lyrics

[Verse 1] Ive been a man ever since I can remember I never been a big fan of December The nights get cold Nobody there to take care of me Nobody there to tell me that they love me And nobody knows But we were born and raised in the days where you couldn’t even pay to get away from the pain And that’s where we live, all day And now we get paid to be slaves of our very own grave and I say it every g-----n day: that’s no way to live [Hook/Chorus] I’ve been called the murderer, k**er I’ve just played with the hand that they deal us I’ve been called a loser, an outlaw Shut down in my very own backyard In this crazy world, we all deserve a second chance In this crazy world, we all deserve a second chance Don’t back down, don’t back down, no never [Verse 2] But you a (?), I never claimed that I wasn’t a sinner Bless my soul I’ve been down for too many days I might drown in all these haters out of control We were born and raised in the days where you couldn’t even pay to get away from the pain And that’s where we live, permanently And now we get paid to be slaves of our very own grave and I say it every g-----n day: that’s no way to live No, not for me [Hook/Chorus] I’ve been called the murderer, k**er I’ve just played with the hand that they deal us I’ve been called a loser, an outlaw Shut down in my very own backyard In this crazy world, we all deserve a second chance In this crazy world, we all deserve a second chance Don’t back down, don’t back down, no never [Bridge] Who better to fix you other than you? ooh You know exactly what you want, you know exactly what you gotta do You just gotta do it, do it You just gotta do it, do it [Hook/Chorus] I’ve been called the murderer, k**er I’ve just played with the hand that they deal us I’ve been called a loser, an outlaw Shut down in my very own backyard In this crazy world, we all deserve a second chance In this crazy world, we all deserve a second chance Don’t back down, don’t back down, no never
