lyrics

Save Yourself
(Verse1)
When you walk on by afraid to stop and try
You wanna make it right you wanna save a life
You just turn your head on all the suffering
Like you always did , gonna save a life

(chorus)
You gotta save yourself
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself…
If you wanna get home tonight

(break)

(verse 2)
Gotta have some faith, foundation laid in place
When we make a change we can save a life
There’s no more in between the lines that can’t be seen
Problems on the street, reach out and save a life

(chorus x 2)
You gotta save yourself
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself…
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself…
If you wanna get home…

(bridge)
Define our generation as one to be heard
Reach out to tomorrow, get what you deserve
Are you ordinary and have you got the time
Reach out to another and save a life
I’ve got the inspiration for a better time
The seconds on the clock are going to end tonight
I haven’t got the reason but I got the rhyme… tonight…
Tonight I’m gonna save a life

(solo)

 
(verse 3)
The future’s in our hands along with its demand
We learn to understand, we learn to understand
We all make mistakes, some don’t go away…
They never go away

(chorus x 2)
You gotta save yourself
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself…
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself
If you wanna get home tonight
You gotta save yourself…
If you wanna get home tonight
