One Shot At Life

Life's hard - no joke! Like a chain around your throat
Slave to the life out on the streets
You're down, but not out - you're tryin' to break out from here
But it calls you back again...

You say, 'Leave me be, I just need a little time.'
Yeah - time to die in a concrete grave!
You can say 'Just let me live my life.'
This is it - it's all you get! You only get...

One shot, one shot at life - don't let it pass you by
One shot, one shot at life - you only get one shot at life...

No light with the dawn. No future, can go on - all lies!
Your life is in you hands
You want to die, you want to quit. Wake up - that's just a pile of shit!
If you want to break free, you've got to try...

One shot, one shot at life - don't let it pass you by
One shot, one shot at life - it's gone if you don't try
One shot, one shot at life - make a stand and reach for the sky
One shot, one shot at life - you only get one shot at life...
