I'm gonna hold my head up high before I'm dead in the dirt (I'm still standing here) I want a reason, I want an answer, I want a reason someday I want a reason, I want an answer, I want a reason What is the message What are the chances that I'll be

And I thank my god Go 1, 2, 3, 4, Yeah yeah you gotta Stand tall and cut away the ties Drop Balls and hold that head up high The world is fast and youth ain't gonna wait So grab a hold before it gets to late Bare your soul and strip away the cold

Warm my heart to remind And hold my head up high And help me to survive Take me for a ride Break me up and steal what's left inside And make them pray The iniquity has died inside and left a scar I'm all red and done Bring me peace and wash away my dirt

I'm gonna let it go, oh, oh, oh yeah Today, I'm gonna keep on walkin' I'm gonna hold my head up high Today, I'm gonna stand out in the rain Let it wash it all away, yeah, wash it all away I been caught sideways out here on the crossroads Tryin' to buy

Round and round Till you show me what this life is for I won’t run away this time I’m not gonna let you change my mind You don’t have to hold your head up high We are all living the same way We are escaping the same way We are a part of the same play
