We Weren't Born To Follow

This one goes out to the man who minds the miracles

This one goes out the ones in need

This one goes out the sinner and the cynical

This ain't about no apology



This road was paved by the hopeless and the hungry

This road was paved by the winds of change

Walking beside the guilty and the innocent

How will you raise your hand when they call your name?



Yeah, yeah, yeah,

We weren't born to follow

Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow

You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow

And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow

You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooooohhh, yeah



This one's about anyone who does it differently

This one's about the one who curses and spits

This ain't about our living in a fantasy

This ain't about giving up or giving in



Yeah, yeah, yeah,

We weren't born to follow

Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow

You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow

And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow

You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooooohhh, yeah



Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooooohhh, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

We weren't born to follow

Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow

You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow

And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow

You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooooohhh, yeah
