 Pre Chorus: , ,  (x3) ,
 To share your life's work is your only reward
 you live by the pen and you die by the sword
 i'm struggling to breathe as i fall through the floor
 and i just can't take no more
 i can't get no money for the music i play
 i can't get no respect for the things that i say
 i'm building cobwebs just to blow them away
 and i just can't take no more
 when i was a youth this was never the plan
 thought that things would turn out better once i grew into a man
 now i'm crawling in the dirt because i'm too scared to stand
 and i just can't take no more
 they say the struggle for power will turn your heart sour
 every hour of your days
 if you just can't be there inevitably you will crumble and blow away
 alone, oh yeah
 oh lord, oh yeah
 cause there ain't no time for danger
 and there ain't no time for love
 when we met we both were strangers
 well i guess once push comes to shove
 i don't wanna go back to a world without you
 we spend these days living life on the road
 we take what we can get and try to do as we're told
 there's a glimmer in the distance but it's never paved in gold
 and we just can't take no more
 there's no guarantees for this music we play
 we don't want to dissect everything that we say
 no we don't believe in Jah but we're still writing dub reggae
 and we just can't take no more
