LYRICS:

Before your time’s up

These bars will open your mind up

The spirit inside ya will live on ’til time’s done

But when the lights go out you might not rise up again like the sun

So embrace the present

You never know when you might lose somebody you love

Grievance hasn’t got a button you can just turn off

Gotta stay true to yourself at any cost

Ascend to the sky, you won’t get lost

When a loved one’s here for a second then gone

Your heart beats to the sound of the drum

When someone above’s still sending you signals

Letting you know you’re not on your own

Hold onto your people

Coz we were born alone, we won’t die alone

You will never lose face by offering a shoulder

Bring them into your space

When the world seems like it’s colder

You will never lose face by offering a shoulder

Bring them into your space

I’ve got love for friends and family who have fallen

Regardless of distance I know none of us here wanna be forgotten

Yeah times get rough for the best of us and daily life is just way too much

Coz we’re riding the waves in the ocean

Lost hope and faith and you’re feeling crushed

We all need to move forward

Need to see that there’s something more than what we had coz we have it all

Emotions rise then emotions fall

Feel pushed back and against the wall

A positive mind will keep you strong

Strike the match, ignite the flames, so we can carry on

You will never lose face by offering a shoulder

Bring them into your space

When the world seems like it’s colder

You will never lose face by offering a shoulder

Bring them into your space

There comes a time in life when someone will want you by their side

And need you to keep them strong

Alone they fall but we are one

There will be a time

When everything’s fine or so it seems

Left with memories, holding onto dreams

You will never lose face by offering a shoulder

Bring them into your space

When the world seems like it’s colder...
