Lyrics Everlast – Today (Watch Me Shine)
Text:
Yesterday is just a dream I don’t remember
Tomorrow, still a hope I’ve yet to endure
I’m out of time
I’m out of rhyme
Season’s change and leave me out in the cold
The story’s old
The tale been told by many a scholar
Got a fistful of dollar
And pocketful of love
God above if you hear me cryin’
I’ve tried to sell my soul
But no one’s buyin’
Lord, strike me down now if I’m lyin’
Bronx Style Bob
Lord strike me down
X3
It’s gettin’ cold
It’s time for dyin’
CHORUS
Come on and watch me shine
Like the world is mine (check it out) today
Come on and watch me shine (check it out)
Like the world is mine today
Watch me shine (check it out)
Then the man was free from sin
Bronx Style Bob
free from sin
Cast the first stone then began the violence
Bronx Style Bob
Let the man whose words ring true
Speak on up till his voice breaks through the silence
Bronx Style Bob
through the silence
Let the ones who lose their way
Live to see just one more day in the sunshine
Bronx Style Bob
La-la-la-la-la-la-laaa
Let the one’s who choose to stray
Recognize the price they’ll pay
In their lifetime
Bronx Style Bob
in their lifetime
X2
CHORUS
Sit in the way and wait for my roads to cross
You nail me down and you watch me bleed
Bronx Style Bob
watch me bleed
So lay my head against the earth
Plant my body like a seed
Bronx Style Bob
plant my body like a seed
You can’t always get the things you want, love (check it out)
Bronx Style Bob
tell me what you want
You get what you deserve
Or maybe what you need
Bronx Style Bob
tell me what you need
So fill my hole with precious dirt, love
Till the soil and part the weed
CHORUS
