All He Had Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He crossed his heart and made a promise
That all his walls would be demolished
Said he'd build a new empire by the sweat of his brow
But when he was finished, there was nothing
[Chorus]
For all he had
Was a bitter cup of gold
Why gain the whole world if we lose our soul?
And all he had
Was an empty heart of holes
Why gain the whole world if we lose our soul?
Why gain the whole world if we lose our soul?
[Verse 2]
Between love or money, He'd choose the latter
He said, "Just one more year and it will get better"
But the higher that he climbed the lower he found himself
And when he reached the top, there was nothing
[Chorus]
For all he had
Was a bitter cup of gold
Why gain the whole world if we lose our soul?
And all he had
Was an empty heart of holes
So why gain the whole world if we lose our soul?
Why gain the whole world if we lose our soul?
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
And for the first time he prayed
"Oh God, this can't be living
I fought, I paved my way
But I must've lost a step or two somewhere
Oh, I must've lost a step or two somewhere"
