I was taught to find the answers on my own
Brought up by punk, taught to question all and break the mold
All you have in life is everything you hold inside
It's hard to play along once the truth has been realized

All my life I knew there was better way
All this time you spent and kept it locked away
All my life I knew we had a long way to go
We have a long way to go

Whoa whoa, we got a long way to go
Long way, we have a long way
We have a long way
We have a long way to go

There comes a time when every soul must face oneself
Stand on your own conditioned thoughts get thrown right out
It's like a cleansing or exposing of reality
Once you realize every thing's affecting everything

All my life I knew there was better way
All this time you spent and kept it locked away
All my life I knew we had a long way to go
Yeah, yeah, yeah

They say it's me that's wrong
My thoughts they don't belong
My ways are dead and gone
And all I have are freedom songs

I just don't think their way
Don't like the words they say
The way they operate
Manipulate and spread their hate

I just don't think their way
Don't like the words that they say
We have a long way, we have a long way to go
Whoa whoa, we have a long way to go
