Let's fight a war deep in our hearts we know we can't win
Better to die than feel shameful giving up on this
So take my hand and walk together side by side into heaven
And so it is, the books were written long before our time
The pages promise life will be better
The second time around, our lives are better
Whoa, but life has just begun
I ain't been around here long enough to count my blessings in Barbados
I never had a chance to map the seas
Still I feel the years before me shaking in my bones as I'm taken to my knees
Out in the depths I feel a hunger begging in my soul to fill a prophecy
Whoa, but life had just begun
