Letra de Battle Born
You lost faith in the human spirit You walk around like a ghost Your star-spangled heart Took a train for the coast When you shine you're a hilltop mansion So how'd you lose the light? Was it blown by the wind In the still of the night? You're up against the wall Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet ('Cause you can't stop now) I always saw you as a kind of keeper A mother to a child But your boys have grown soft And your girls have gone wild From the Blue Ridge to the Black Hills To the Redwood sky The season may pass But the dream doesn't die Now don't you drop the ball Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet ('Cause you can't stop now) And when they break your heart And when they cause your soul to mourn Remember what I said Boy, you was battle born ('Cause you can't stop now) You was battle born When the night falls on the land Are you haunted by the sound? It's gonna take more than a hand To turn this thing around Won't you lean it on me? Rescue, set me free Up against the wall (up against the wall) There's something dying on the street When they knock you down (up against the wall) You're gonna get back on your feet 'Cause you can't stop now ('cause you can't stop now) And did they break your heart? (Did they break your heart?) And did they cause your soul to mourn? Remember what I said (remember what I said) Boy, you was battle born (you were battle born) 'Cause you can't stop now ('cause you can't stop now) Come on, show your face (come on, show your face) Come on, give us one more spark (give us one more spark) We'll sing your song of fire (sing your song of fire) Unless we fall into the dark (fall into the dark) 'Cause you can't stop now ('cause you can't stop now) You never live, you never learn You never shine if you never burn A rising tide, the undertow The famine and the overflow Well, turn away, welcome home
