Bling (Confession of a King)

When I offer you survival

You say it's hard enough to live

It's not so bad, it's not so bad

How do you know that you're right?

I awoke on the roadside

In the land of the free ride

And I can't pull it any longer

The sun is beating down my neck

So I ran with the devil

Left a trail of excuses

Like a stone on the water

The elements decide my fate, watch it go

When I offer you survival

You say it's hard enough to live

Don't tell me that it's over, stand up

Poor and tired, but more than this

How do you know that you're right?

If you're not nervous anymore

It's not so bad, it's not so bad

I feel my vision slipping in and out of focus

But I'm pushing on for that horizon

I'm pushing on

Now I've got that blowing wind against my face

So you sling rocks at the riptide

Am I wrong or am I right?

I hit the bottom with a "huh!", quite strange

I get my glory in the desert rain, watch it go

When I offer you survival

When I offer you survival

You say it's hard enough to live

And I'll tell you when it's over, shut up

Poor and tired, but more than this

How do you know that you're right?

If you're not nervous anymore

It's not so bad, it's not so bad

Higher and higher

We're gonna take it down to the wire

We're gonna make it out of the fire

Higher and higher, higher and higher

We're gonna take it down to the wire

We're gonna make it out of the fire

Higher and higher, higher and higher

We're gonna take it down to the wire

We're gonna make it out, whoa-oh-oh

Higher and higher

It ain't hard to hold when it shines like gold

You'll remember me
