Heavy shadows stretching long across this dusty floor
We've been trading sweat for silver at the factory door
Every nickel, every dime, it slips right through my hand
Leaving me with nothing but this dry and thirsty land
My boots are worn, my spirit's torn, but I ain't giving in
Gonna find a little spark where these dark nights begin
We may not have a fortune, we may not have a crown
But that don't mean we're ready to let this world keep us down
So pour another round, let the music take the lead
Got all the magic that we're ever gonna need
Let the worries of tomorrow just dissolve and fade away
We are rulers of the night, no matter what they say
Let him drink and forget his poverty, let the music play
Let him drown out his misery, let it wash away
We are rich in this moment, we are kings of the night
Everything is gonna be just fine in this golden light
Remember no more the struggle, remember no more the pain
We are dancing like believers in the warm summer rain
Let the glass be full, and the heart be light and free
This is how we're writing our own destiny
Riding down the channel of a rough and tough time
Hands are calloused, lines are written on this face of mine
But they can't erase the hope that's flowing like this sweet red wine
Every scar is just a story of a battle fought and won
And we ain't stopping till we see the rising of the Sun, the rising of the Sun
They can take our gold and silver, they can take our daily bread
But they can never take the dreams that are dancing in our head
Let him drink and forget his poverty, let the music play
Let him drown out his misery, let it wash away
We are rich in this moment, we are kings of the night
Everything is gonna be just fine in this golden light
Remember no more the struggle, remember no more the pain
We are dancing like believers in the warm summer rain
Let the glass be full, and the heart be light and free
This is how we're writing our own destiny
Let the glass be full
And the heart be light and free
Proverbs 31:7
We dance in the golden light
No more misery
We are writing our own destiny
