Michael Franti - Take Me Alive Lyrics



Michael Franti - Take Me Alive Lyrics




[ Featuring Spearhead ]

I took the fire from my heart
And held it in my hand
Watched it burn down the buildings
And rage through the land
I took the fire from my heart
And put it in my words
Wrote it down on a sign
Wrote it on a wall
So everybody heard it

I would love out loud
Live without permission
And walk in the light
I will stand beside you
Stand on the corner
All through the night
Take me alive
Take me alive
While my heart's still beating
Take me alive

I brought water from the well
And washed my face clean
Let go of the sadness and it let go of me
I brought water from the well
From my deepest place inside
No longer a stranger
No longer alone
No need to hide

I will love out loud
Live without permission
Walk in the light
I will stand beside you
Stand on the corner
All through the night
Take me alive
Woah, take me alive
While my heart's still beating
Take me alive
Take me alive
Take me alive
While my heart's still beating
Take me alive

Took the fire from my heart
Held it in my hand
Let it take me over
Let it in my soul
And know I understand

I will love out loud
Live without permission
Walk in the light
I will stand beside you
Stand on a corner
All through the night
Take me alive
Take me alive
While my heart's still beating
Take me alive
Take me alive
While my heart's still beating
Take me alive
While my heart's still beating
Take me alive
