Lyrics:
They say we can’t make it through
Too young; don’t know what to do
This life is much too hard for you and me
They say we’re living in our dreams
Black, white, and nothing in between
This world is never as it seems to be
But they don’t want this
And they don’t feel this
But this was never theirs at all!
So here I stand
I’m ready for anything
Just a man, but I’m giving everything
We’re here only for a second
And then we’re gone when we least expect it
So do more than survive
Let’s live like we’re alive!
They say, “Stay inside the lines we’ve drawn
And you will be just fine
Don’t take chances with your life. C’mon”
But they don’t want this
And they don’t feel this
But this was never theirs at all!
This world, we’ve gotta let it go
This life is out of our control
