Matisyahu - Obstacles Lyrics
Obstacles, they come and go,That's the name of the game you knowThis life can't be bought nor sold,Play your cards then foldCan't give back the time you stole,Path unravels, the day unfoldsThis life can't be bought nor sold,Play your cardsTwo steps forward,Take one step backEvery time I get on track light fades to blackWhen the curtain drops back and I step to my destinyI find my freedom right in front of meIt's in your eyes, I see when we dance to the beatAnd these sweet melodies ride in on a breezeTrees part for me but these sharks still circle through the parkI look to youIt's in my nature to listen to youI ran after you and the lights went blueMe and you, you and me,Share my heart with youYou're my family nowObstacles, they come and go, that's the name of the game you knowThis life can't be bought nor sold,Play your cards then foldCan't give back the time you stole, path unravels, the day unfoldsThis life can't be bought nor sold, play your cardsOnce upon a time I ran to youBanned myself to find your wealthAnd return to the land of truth,Found myself all alone as the stars, they kissStill running after you through this wildernessAt dawn I track snow through backyards and front lawnsI'm up late, wide awake,I'm reborn as day breaks and gets calmI look to youIt's in my nature to listen to youI ran after you and the lights went blueMe and you, you and me,Share my heart with youYou're my family nowObstacles, they come and go,That's the name of the game you knowThis life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then foldCan't give back the time you stole,Path unravels, the day unfoldsThis life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then foldSifting through the sandA man is just a manNo matter how you fan the flame,It all comes out the sameIn the end you were my friendSifting through the sandA man is just a manNo matter how you fan the flame,It all comes out the sameIn the end you were my friendObstacles, they come and go,That's the name of the game you knowThis life can't be bought nor sold,Play your cards then foldCan't give back the time you stole,Path unravels, the day unfoldsThis life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards, then fold
