My father said listen son
Grow up and be an honest man
No one can save you from your ways
Promise you won't lose your soul
When you are out there on your own
Tell me that you will not lose your way

No one said it would be easy
Day after day of longing and sacrifice
When you're only appeasing
What can you change
Trying hard not to lose control
Playing games that we just do not know
Now it seems your believing this is the way

We don't walk this earth just to sell our souls
And we don't need to buy their broken ways

Now i'm calling on the past to lead me
Telling myself everything's ok
When the lights turn red
