He?s got a big gold ring that says ?JESUS SAVES?
And it?s dented from the punch thrown at work that day
When he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things
After the big boss said, ?You best be on you way?
Oh yeh
So this life is sacrifice
Oh yeh
Jumping trains just to survive
Well, his wife and kid are sleeping but he?s still awake
On his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills to unpaid
Gets up, lights up a cigarette he?s grown to hate
Thinking if he can?t sleep, how will he ever dream?
Yeh
So this life is sacrifice
Oh yeh
To a stranger?s bottom line
Yeh
I seen the light,.. Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I?s scared alive,?
Near to death,? uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I seen the light,?
Scared alive
Yeh
So this life is sacrifice
Oh yeh
They can?t say I never tried
Yeh
I seen the light,? uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I?s scared alive,?
Near to death,? uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
I seen the light.
Scared alive,? oh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh
Near to death.
Here to die.
Scared alive.
Near to death.
Here to die.
Scared alive.
