Yesterday, 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, I'm out of reason
Seasons change and leave me out in the cold
The story's old, the tale been told by many scholars
Got a fistful of dollar and a pocketful of love
God above, if you hear me cryin'
I'm trying to sell my soul, but no one's buying
Lord, strike me down now, if I'm lying (Lord, strike me down)
(Lord, strike me down, Lord, strike me down)
It's getting cold, it's time for dying
Come on and watch me shine (watch me shine)
Like the world is mine (check it out) today
Come on and watch me shine (watch me shine, check it out)
Like the world is mine today (today)
Watch me shine (check it out)
Let the man who's free from sin (free from sin)
Cast the first stone and begin the violence (and begin the violence)
Let the man whose words ring true
Speak on up 'til his voice breaks through the silence
(Through the silence, check it out)
Let the ones who lose their way
Live to see just one more day in the sunshine
Let the ones who choose to stray recognize the price they'll pay
In their lifetime (in their lifetime, in their lifetime)
Come on and watch me shine (watch me shine)
Like the world is mine (check it out) today
Come on and watch me shine (watch me shine, check it out)
Like the world is mine today (today)
Watch me shine (check it out)
