Neville Brothers - Walkin' in the Shadow of Life lyrics

When will it come, well we don't know So we can't waste time You could just stand there play it safe if you want to No second chance when your ass is grass Ain't about the money You can't take your paper when you're about to meet your maker Watching everything just pass you by Blaming everyone else when you ain't never tried Stalling every little chance you get Never doing nothing about it Until there ain't no time left Walkin' in thе shadow of life You're living blind, open up your еyes, crossroads are waiting It's in your hands, make a choice, but make the right one The moment of truth is going down, you'd better be ready, for any and every Put 'em up when the fight's on You could battle when you're on the ropes Waiting for the bell, caught in some choke hold Just stop waiting on someone to help You don't have to suffer when you could save yourself Walkin' in the shadow of life
