barefoot truth – holdin’ on lyrics
on top of the world
at least the world i knew
my only company is the wind, the rain, the sun, the sky, the moon
i build my life my roots set deep in the earth
some folks can’t see a good life for what it’s worth
well it all began to change
at the sound of a gun
people running through my fears
their bodies sleeping in the sun
and then the gr-ss became the road
and then the cars rolled by
and i was choking on the smoke i thought the air was on fire
and then the ground began to rise, or maybe i was sinking in
gone be the days i could see or smell the ocean
i’m living in a concrete cave with just a shadow by my side
but i’m gonna hold my ground until this life is gonna p-ss me by
i’m holdin’ on to all that i’ve left
is that so much for one to ask?
i never wanted more than i was given
but some folks just don’t want to understand
i saw a man yesterday
who just had been kicked to the curb
if not by acting bold he’d break off more than he deserve
not he’s stretched himself thin
he holds a cup and paper change
tears fall from his eyes and he thinks about those good old days
i stretch my arms out wide i said i’ll offer you some shade
