The truth is they dont give us much time
and it wears us down and keeps fueling the grind
we take our shots and shield our pride
we lift these stones with the fire inside

Burning through the maze we are trying to get ahead
in a rat race chasing for our daily bread
there is no finish line out there in the streets
well, what if there is something more than what your 
eyes believe

Now that i can see this light down the road
so far i know there is something else
if i live or die, i know it won't be easy
past the gates of heaven and hell

It's hard to know ehre it starts or ends
it's the simple things that kepp pulling us in
we own these chains that pull the weight
and our best chance to dance with fate

when the signs aren't clear and it's hard to breathe
and you are so fed up with how it is supposed to be
there's gotta be something more than what your eyes 
believe

Now that i can see this light down the road
so far i know there is something else
if i live or die, i know it won't be easy
past the gates of heaven and hell

Am i standing on hollow ground
'cause there's nowhere left to run to now
and it's taking its toll, it wears on my soul
i know there must be something else
past the gates of heaven, past the gates of heaven
past the gates of heaven and hell

Now that i can see this light down the road
so far i know there is something else
if i live or die, i know it won't be easy
past the gates of heaven and hell.
