LYRICS:
****************************************************
I'm walking the street and I hear what you say
Advicing me telling me how to play
I know your name it's called Mr.Mean
One thing I've learned you don't know beans
Hight I fly
I touch the sky
Far above the frozen minds
You can't kill my dreams
You can't kill my spirit
I was born to be free
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
EVERY DAY THE POWER GROWS STRONGER IN ME
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
HEAD UP HIGH
THE MASTER OF MY OWN DESTINY
You think you know what is better for me
Holding me lectures of how I should be
Shrugging my shoulders I leave you behind
Any wway I look at it you are blind
Hight I fly
I touch the sky
Far above the frozen minds
You can't kill my dreams
You can't kill my spirit
I was born to be free
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
EVERY DAY THE POWER GROWS STRONGER IN ME
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
HEAD UP HIGH
THE MASTER OF MY OWN DESTINY
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
EVERY DAY THE POWER GROWS STRONGER IN ME
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
HEAD UP HIGH
THE MASTER OF MY OWN DESTINY
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
EVERY DAY THE POWER GROWS STRONGER IN ME
I WALK TO MY OWN SONG
HEAD UP HIGH
THE MASTER OF MY OWN DESTINY
