If I Abide |
Encouraged to speak, shown every sign |
Learned to never waste the time |
Taught to have an open |
(Mind) |
Why give me a heart |
When you won’t let it beat? |
And I’m not afraid, I’ve still got hope |
But now you tell me I belong |
Do I stay and sing this same old |
(Song) |
Why give me a key |
When you won’t set me free? |
And you listen to our song |
And you wonder what’s going on |
You say that growth’s okay |
But do it by the rules |
But if I abide, how will I grow or learn? |
Is this one big lie or have we been misled? |
It’s time to practice what we preach |
It’s time to move ahead |
Now I’ve lived awhile |
Not much I haven’t tried |
But tell me what to do and you’ll see |
How high I can fly |
Why give me the space |
When you won’t let me breathe? |
It’s time to make things fresh |
Bring in the new |
Put our minds together |
And see beyond this tunnel view |
Why give me two eyes |
When you won’t let me see? |
And you listen to our song |
And you wonder what’s going on |
You say that growth’s okay |
But do it by the rules |
But if I abide, how will I grow or learn? |
Is this one big lie or have we been misled? |
It’s time to practice what we preach |
It’s time to move ahead |
