Lyrics
I was in quite maybe the gravest of danger
I was in the blackest of blues
Freedom dreaming couldn't have felt any stranger
Than it did to walk in those shoes
They tried to tell me change was reserved for the chosen
Point me at the dollar buffet
They think that I will fill myself up
Won't believe my good luck
Just to be here, hungry just the same
Feeling like I don't have to wait any longer
But you tell me maybe I do
Can't recall a time I felt any stronger
That's the way things feel when they're true
They even have the nerve to suggest their opinion
On the way my heart likes to beat in my chest
Yes, I can't say I'm sorry no more
What am I sorry for?
To begin with, my heart beat just the same
And what they fail to realize (Hey, yeah, yeah)
Is they don't know nothing about what I'm made of
And if I want to get some help (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't ever worry or wonder about it, I will
I will, I will
I will, I will
I have had these dreams for too long to decide them
By the way you like to keep scoring
I would rather lay down and die right beside them
If I couldn't dream them no more
They try to tell me maybe I don't quite belong here
Why that is, they really can't say
They hem and haw and look at the floor
And they don't show me the door
And they tell me, they love me just the same
Just the same, just the same
Just the same, just the same
Just the same, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
