I'm not a shadow, |
|
I'm not the ground beneath your feet |
|
I'm not a shadow, |
|
When you look down, you wont see me |
|
I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone |
|
I'm not a shadow, cause I'm not a shadow |
|
Here's to you don't settle, and never separate |
|
And never be quiet cause the words you say |
|
You never go back on and never turn around, |
|
Never judge another cause as stupid it sounds |
|
Cause when you see others knowin' they're all brothers, |
|
Knowin' they're all sisters, seein' the big picture, |
|
If they're not with you, then they're against |
|
And were here now when they are way back when |
|
So why try to please everyone? |
|
When it seems that all the people really want |
|
Is to show love, and out and get love back |
|
Is to show some faith and get respect |
|
Just look at the world then, you look at the problems |
|
And look at the hatred, and we still cant solve it |
|
So look inside and you'll find step one, |
|
Forget a diamond I'm shinin' like the sun |
|
Cause I'm not a shadow, |
|
I'm not the ground beneath your feet |
|
I'm not a shadow, |
|
When you look down, you wont see me |
|
I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone |
|
I'm not a shadow, cause I'm not a shadow |
|
Here's to you on your own, the innocent criminal |
|
You never fit the mold, you never go sit down |
|
You never go get approval no matter how you prove |
|
That love is the motive in everything you do, |
|
And revolution is you and you're against the machine, |
|
You know who you are and you know what I mean |
|
And when this record stops you would never slow down, |
|
When the video is over you want your turn now so, |
|
You make the truth and move straight ahead, |
|
While the followers behind you get left for dead |
|
For the imminent brainwash follow the dumb rules, |
|
Created by individuals who unlike you |
|
Don't care for the world or, care for the people |
|
They love it their way, and they love unequal |
|
And they love when they feel above someone, |
|
I don't follow the leader when they're all wrong |
|
Cause I'm not a shadow, |
|
I'm not the ground beneath your feet |
|
I'm not a shadow, |
|
When you look down, you wont see me |
|
I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone |
|
I'm not a shadow, cause I'm not a shadow |
