Pattern of Rebirth (feat. Fire From the Gods)

I remain a soldier even through these tears I remain a warrior even through the fear I stay on my grind, walk a road less traveled Keep my head up, every time I touch upon the gravel Enemies to my right and left (right and left) Opposition plottin' on my death At war with my pride Jah, open my eyes So I pray, Jah, guide I And bless my soul Open my eyes Don't let me go And hear my cry And hear my cry Even when the world is on my shoulders Even when the pain takes over And the end feels closer, closer No matter the pain I feel You know I can't fail This won't break me down When you live by the knife Fight for your life I stand on solid ground There's no rest for the wicked There's no sleep for the wicked Yes, as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil 'cause Jah guides my every step I keep my friends close I keep my enemies closer And when they're comin' for the kill I fall to my knees and pray Jah, guide I (Jah, guide I) And bless my soul (and bless my soul) Open my eyes (open my eyes) Don't let me go (don't let me go) And hear my cry Life passes Life comes and goes I used to pray for salvation I used to pray for forgiveness I thought God would save my soul I used to pray that the heavens would open up And favor me and hell would just let me go Here I am Payin' for my sins with my blood Wishin' I had spent time with my blood Wishin' I had done more for my kids Wishin' I had done more for my wife Wishin' I didn't lose my life Why can't I have more time? Why can't I have more time? Just a little bit more time You know, brother, it's all good I'm just hopin' there's room in Heaven for a gangster Jah, bless Life comes and goes Life
