I’ve blazed across this city, broken through the flames
Sold my reflection to ease out the pain
But I’m running out of favours and running out of doors
I just can’t even up the score
Lighten up don’t shoot me down
Let my feet lay on the ground
There’s been so many changes and some I just can’t take
So I remember so much and leave the rest to fate
Cos I feel like I’m a stranger feel like I’m a slave
I’m a prisoner to my lonely grave
Lighten up don’t shoot me down
Lеt my feet lay on the ground
Lightеn up don’t backslide yourself away
Lighten up cos it all comes back one day
Lighten up, watch what you do and say
Take good care you don’t backslide away
I’ve backed up all my chances played out all the cards
Everyone’s told me I’m trying so hard
But I’m owed the blood of diamonds not rattlesnakes and chains
And that’s what’s driving me insane
Lighten up don’t shoot me down
Let my feet lay on the ground
