Bound for Glory - That was then this is now

18, Damned and Defiant against the lies of this World I couldn't keep quiet
Off with my hair, I made my alliance, Not a show of fasion, but an act of defiance
I learned my lesson there is a story to tell while claim to be true,
Only a few really are with a false pretense in life you won't got very far

After all these years gone by, I think to myself was it all worth it?
The hardships, the anger, the disappointment in some
Playing with life like it's a loaded gun

That was then this is now 4x

Ideals don't change they only get stronger if you can't figure right from wrong,
You won't lost longer while some are like fire, they still flicker in the wind
When their flame burns out their sparks has given in
I can see your fire, and I know it exists in you Be wise, be noble, and above all else be true

Don't jugde a book by its cover until you see what is inside
Pages of pride, passion and sorrow, tales of a man with message you'll find

Just not by what others say, judge only by what you see
In a world governd by shackles and lies, there are those that are truly free
