The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm just the shadow of a bigger man
Glowing brighter with each year i am
I was standing on a mountain
Just looking down (on you on you)
It's like my daddy said
You gotta use your head (my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
Yeah, no one said that i aim to please
All your light can't save me
All your light all your light can't save me
I won't wait though my time may come
I can't wait, i can't wait
My time may come (my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
As a boy i had it figured out
There are things that you can't live without
But money, it's sad but true, would surely top that list
And your rules your rules, well they would not be missed
Well i became
Whole again
Cause no one said no one said no one said
There'd be times like these
I said all your light can't save me
All your light all your light can't save me
I won't wait though my time may come
I can't wait, i can't wait
My time may come
(my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
No one said there'd be times like these
(my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
No one said there'd be times like these
(my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
No one said there'd be times like these
(my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
Well, no one said there'd be times like these
I was licking flames, when i broke your reins
Still, no one said no one said no one said it'd be suicide
All your light can't save me
All your light, all your light can't save me
I won't wait though my time may come
I can't wait, i can't wait
My time may come
(my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
No one said there'd be times like these
(my body won't work for nobody but me, son)
No one said there'd be times like these
All your light can't save me
All your light, all your light can't save me
I won't wait though my time may come
I can't wait, i can't wait
My time may come
