This one goes out to the man who mines for miracles
This one goes out to the ones in need
This one goes out to 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
Walkin' beside the guily and the innocent
How will you raise your hand when they call your name?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(chorus)
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 onto what you believe
Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
And that 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, oh yeah
(verse)
This one's about anyone who does it differently
This one's about the one who curses and spits
This ain't about our livin' in a fantasy
This ain't about givin' up or givin' in
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(chorus)
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 onto what you believe
Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
And that 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, oh yeah
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
guitar!
(chorus)
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 onto what you believe
Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow
And that 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, oh yeah
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah
We weren't born to follow, oh yeah
We weren't born to follow, oh yeah
