Recorded at the famous Muscle Shoals Sound in Muscle Shoals, AL.
lyrics
On a rain slicked street in the south side of the city
The club just closed and the crowd is leavin’ the party
Round the corner comes a White Diamond Escalade
Blindin’ lights slowin’ down in pistol range
There’s a flash of fire, a familiar sound
Another young man is taken down
Fight the light, Fight the light, He heard himself say
Fight the light, Fight the light, Death is just a breath away
Fight the light, Fight the light, the afterlife can wait
Fight the light, Fight the light, Fight the light
Someone stop the bleedin’ a young girl cries for help
As she fumbles deep inside her purse to find her buried cell
The crowd steps aside as the sirens start to scream
He’s surrounded by the faces of the EMTs
But he can’t hear them say your gonna be okay
He’s too busy prayin’ the angels away
Fight the light, Fight the light, He heard himself say
Fight the light, Fight the light, Death’s a breath away
Fight the light, Fight the light, the afterlife can wait
Fight the light, Fight the light, Fight the light
He can’t wait till he’s back in the streets
With his heart full of grace and sermon he must preach
Fight the light, Fight the light, He heard himself say
Fight the light, Fight the light, Death’s a breath away
Fight the light, Fight the light, the afterlife can wait
Fight the light, Fight the light, Fight the light
