Everything I ever tried to be
Shaken out and stripped away from me
Makes you question everything a man believes
It's hard to know who to call a friend
Knock me down I'm bouncing up again
How much further can my body bend
Lord I can't carry it alone
Trying to walk that line
Take my pride and bury it
Let my soul light shine
Let your soul light shine
Got a lot hangin' over me
It never goes how you think it's gonna be, but you
Can't wait for someday to be free
Looking for a better way to live
A lost soul's gonna stay adrift
Until you find something yourself, you got nothing to give
Lord I can't carry it alone
Gonna cross that line
Take my pride and bury it
Let my soul light shine
Let your soul light shine
Let your soul light shine
Wheels spinning in the salty air
Write it down, let me take you there
Always looking for something we can share
Lord I can't carry it alone
Trying to walk that line
Take my pride and bury it
Let my soul light shine
Let your soul light shine
Let your soul light shine
