Short of breath, what world is left? When did I sleep, can anyone say? Long journey, a tired soul I took the wrong path when my name was called Please hear my message Before you end up in this rabbit hole Shine on now brother Shine on my son Let your soul be vivified Before your time is done My mama told me you got Just one chance here You've gotta shine on Shine on for yourself Reflection now, I bare my soul My mother's words whisper in the cold The light shows my actions dignify the tomb Another chance, my son your breath Is the most cherished weight to bare Take a minute and count your blessings You're at the top of tMy jacket bleeds of transgression's formally known as my wraith He rabbit hole Shine on now brother Shine on my son Let your soul be vivified Before your time is done My mama told me you got Just one chance here You've gotta shine on Shine on for yourself
