We aren't sons of our fathers sins |
|
We don't inherit iniquities |
|
We aren't heirs to thrones of greed |
|
We don't wear the gold they've thieved and schemed |
|
You don't choose your name |
|
Just what you leave in your wake |
|
We are born, all of us, innocent |
|
We don't wear the wounds of a dying man |
|
No ties no allegiance to majesties |
|
No veil to blind your reasoning |
|
No script rehearsed in all you speak |
|
Own your words in the voice you sing |
|
You don't choose your name |
|
Just what you leave in your wake |
|
We are born, all of us, innocent |
|
We don't wear the wounds of a dying man |
|
Oooooh |
|
No cause to fight for buried kings |
|
Let be what legions they've conceived |
|
No oaths to swear or give repeat |
[2x] |
All words are yours to ink and sing |
|
You don't choose your name |
|
Just what you leave in your wake |
