They all said “Boy, you should never lose sight of what`s right”
Over time, I made a thousand plans
Now I`m hopeful `bout where I stand
Once I knew where I was coming from
But now it`s so hard to touch the ground
So don`t get me wrong
I`m alright tonight
I know I look a little down
But soon, I`m gonna stand up
And I`ll be ready to fight
Oh soon I`m gonna stand up
I won`t let you out of my sights
Face it now; it`s been a hard road
It looks like there`s worse to come
Nothing comes easy; you`ll just have to wait
While you`re making plans
Designing your own fate
Once I knew where I was coming from
But now it`s so hard to touch the ground
So don`t get me wrong
I`m alright tonight
I know I look a little down
But soon, I`m gonna stand up
And I`ll be ready to fight
Oh soon I`m gonna stand up
I won`t let you out of my sights
I`ve been sitting `round the animal cage
Forced to fraternize with vampires
I tried to listen to what the preacher said
But there`s a secret grin on his face
