Rock of Life

Well i pick up my guitar
 (To look)
 I look in the mirror
 It's like a stranger in my hand
 (Baby is cryin')
 There comes a time when a boy must leave
 (Get up)
 And the man has to enter
 For the soul to understand
 (All of the changes)
 As if it ain't hard enough
 This life i'm livin' in
 I was caught with my guard down
 When the world came knockin'
 I feel a big beat
 The rock of life
 Big beat talk to me
 Hey
 Whooh
 I feel a back beat
 The rock of life
 Wakin' up blind with the house on fire
 Is it somethin' in my head
 (Look up)
 Or the time or the season
 Or the little boy in my head
 (Must be a reason)
 There's new meaning in my life
 (Shake up)
 But there's pain and confusion
 And i'm tryin' to understand
 (All of the changes)
 I've been cut so deep but
 I can't make it bleed
 I was caught with my head in the sand
 When the world came knockin'
 I feel a big beat
 The rock of life
 Big beat talk to me
 Hey
 Whooh
 I feel a back beat
 The rock of life
 Wakin' up blind with the house on fire
 It ain't no perfect life
 (By far)
 This world i'm livin' in
 But i was caught with my guard down
 When the world came knockin'
 I feel a big beat
 The rock of life
 Big beat talk to me
 Hey
 Whooh
 I feel a back beat
 The rock of life
 Wakin' up blind with the house on fire
 I feel a big beat
 The rock of life
 Big beat talk to me
 Hey
 Whooh
 I feel a back beat
 The rock of life
 Wakin' up blind with the house on fire
