Şarkı Sözleri

My father told me
Son, its OK to have ideals,
but beliefs against your government still wont pay your bills.
You can raise your fists and publicly resist
but in the end corruption still exists.
And no protest song will ever change the world.
Everybody does exactly as they are told.
In the end every man works for what is his.
You can fight the world, but thats just the way it is.
Youre words are not meaningless to me,
I feel their honesty but its my life I gotta figure out for me.
Its what Ive always done not what I have become
and I know the consequences that will come.
And if I never reach the world or speak to peoples souls
its a passion that will not die as I grow old.
Its what I choose to do
it may not work for you but to myself I know I must be true.
I am not afraid to stand right where Ive stood.
My beliefs they are unchanged because I believe they should.
And Ill measure my success one word at a time.
If the truth is spoken will I stand the test of time.
