Children of the Night - The Heights

Chorus Feel like children of the night Let's walk into the light Like children of the night Repeat chorus Rap 1 A child is born to the night Will it live to see the light Ghetto life means tears and pain Many people cry in vain Bridge This generation Over the nation We're gonna take control Like revolution's My contribution So free your mind and soul Rap 2 Education is the key Leave your hands off extasy Respect for life and liberty Masterboy will set you free Bridge This generation Over the nation We're gonna take control Like revolution's My contribution So free your mind and soul

Late at night when all the world is safe Within their dreams, I walk the shadows Late at night an empty feeling creeps Within my soul, I feel so lonely So I go into the darkness of the night All alone I walk the streets until I find Someone who is just like me Looking for some company Children of the night Late at night a restless feeling takes Control of me and I can't fight it Late at night I feel the need for someone Who like me needs understanding So once again I'll search the darkness of the night All alone I'll walk each street until I find Someone who is just like me Looking for some company, no, yeah, hea Children of the night So once again I'll search the darkness of the night All alone I'll walk each street until I find Someone who is just like me Looking for some company, no, yeah, hea Children of the night Children of the night Children of the night Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Well, we rifle through the night Like the riders on the run now, in the street Holding back the blinding lights 'Cause a thousand eyes can be so indiscreet And we hide away, love the night away And we run between the shadows and the light We're children of the night Runnin' from the light Children of the night Of the night In the day we pass like strangers 'Cause we fear the consequences of our love And we realize the danger Still we choose to take our chances on our love And we hide away, love the night away And we run between the shadows and the light Like children of the night Runnin' from the light Children of the night Of the night, oh yeah There's a fine line, such a fine line, a very fine line Between the day and the nighttime The wrong and the right time, ooh for makin' sweet love Find a place to hide, any place to hide, hidin' in the darkness Feels like the right time for love in the nighttime For makin' sweet love And we hide away, love the night away And we run between the shadows and the light Like children of the night Runnin' from the light Children of the night Runnin' from the light Children of the night Runnin' from the light Children of the night Runnin' from the light Ooh, children of the night We're children of the night Children of the night We're children of the night

All that I know in my life I have learned on the street No magic carpet, no genie, no shoes on my feet Will I wake up from this nightmare A fear that chills me to the bone Though I may be one of many I feel so all alone We are the children of the night We won't go down without a fight Our voices strong, our futures bright And thanks to what we've learned from you We've grown into the children of the night Left by my father with only this scar on my face Told by my mother that no, you were just a mistake I have tasted my own hunger Sold my body to survive So they'll pay to scratch the surface But they can't touch what's inside We are the children of the night We won't go down without a fight Our voices strong, our futures bright And thanks to what we've learned from you We've grown into the children of the night How I long for something better Than this life I know too well Lord I know I'm bound for heaven Cause I've done my time in hell We are the children of the night We won't go down without a fight Our voices strong our futures bright And thanks to what we've learned from you We've grown into the children of the night

There was a demon that I fed It smiled when I laid my head down And I'd like to think there's nothing left But we'll see, tonight I took my belongs to the ledge Threw it all over while I said This has no value now, I guess I learned to love you right And oh, you thought I was weak But I get a kick out of proving you wrong You're the voice in my head and I don't get a break I'd leave you for dead but I don't wanna wait And oh, you like to believe You're a link in the chain that is tying me down You're the voice in my head, you weren't even here And if I'm not scared you can't feed on my fear So if I fall, it'll be 'cause I jumped And if I jump it'll be because I'm reaching the heights The heights If I hit the wall, it'll be 'cause I ran And if I run it'll be because I don't wanna waste my time If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights (Na-na-na-na-na) (Na-na-na-na-na-na-na) (Na-na-na-na-na) I don't like to drink, it makes it worse Yeah, I can't hold my liquor I like to think that praying works But all I hear is quiet And I see my belongings down below I see the dusk begin to settle I could have sold it all, you know But what's the price And oh, you thought I was weak But I get a kick out of proving you wrong You're the voice in my head and I don't get a break I'd leave you for dead but I don't wanna wait And oh, you like to believe You're a link in the chain that is tying me down You're the voice in my head, you weren't even here And if I'm not scared you can't feed on my fear So if I fall, it'll be 'cause I jumped And if I jump it'll be because I'm reaching the heights The heights If I hit the wall, it'll be 'cause I ran And if I run it'll be because I don't wanna waste my time If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights (Na-na-na-na-na) (Na-na-na-na-na-na-na) (Na-na-na-na-na) If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights (Na-na-na-na-na) (Na-na-na-na-na-na-na) (Na-na-na-na-na) If I jump it'll be while I reach for the heights There was a demon that I fed It smiled when I laid my head down And I'd like to think there's nothing left But we'll see, tonight I took my belongs to the ledge Threw it all over while I said This has no value now, I guess I learned to love you right

Paris, it's rainin' on a Saturday night But it cannot keep me away from the sound Holdin' my breath 'cause my heart beats too loud Flashin' lights go dancin' on your skin Facin' my desire, caught me by surprise Night dew fallin' on you as the moon is on the rise Maybe I'm dreamin', maybe I'm crazy But I think I'm seeing what you and I can't be Baby, all night I'm so high Baby, all night I'm lost in your eyes Baby, all night I'm so high Baby, all night I'm lost in your eyes Can you feel the love inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? I feel your lips tastin' all my tears Strummin' with your lover's hands Time is insomniac and my demons are back Every time I meet your gaze Facin' my desire, I see it in your eyes Night dew fallin' on you as the moon is on the rise Maybe I'm dreamin', maybe I'm crazy But I think I'm seeing what you and I can't be Baby, all night I'm so high Baby, all night I'm lost in your eyes Baby, all night I'm so high Baby, all night I'm lost in your eyes Can you feel the love inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? Baby, all night I'm so high Baby, all night I'm lost in your eyes Baby, all night I'm so high Baby, all night I'm lost in your eyes Can you feel the love (can't you feel the love?) Inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? (Can you feel it? Can you feel it?) Can you feel the love (can't you feel the love?) Inside of me? Can you feel the love inside of me? (Can you feel the love? Yeah, yeah, yeah) Can you feel it? Oh, can you feel it? Yeah Can you feel it? Oh, can't you feel the love? Can't you feel it? I wanna feel it I wanna feel it
