Through My Own Eyes

[Lorak]

Give me a world, that’s equal on all sides
Let freedom flow, as constant as the tides
I pray with each sunset “Don’t forget to rise” (Don’t forget to rise)
I live without regret for ordinary lives

I’m looking at life through my own eyes
Searching for a hero to idolize
Feeling the pain as innocence dies
Looking at life through my own eyes
I’m hoping and praying for a brighter day
I listen to my heart and I obey
How can I see it any other way?
I’m looking at life (looking at life) through my own eyes

I see a land, with liberty for all
Yet still I know, the truth will rise and fall (Oooh yeah yeh)
That’s just the way it goes, a word now to the wise
The world was made to change, each day is a surprise

I’m looking at life through my own eyes
Searching for a hero to idolize
Feeling the pain as innocence dies
Looking at life through my own eyes
I’m hoping and praying for a brighter day
I listen to my heart and I obey
How can I see it any other way?
I’m looking at life (looking at life) through my own eyes

And I know,
When you’re looking for the truth (mmmhmm)
If you go, and read between the lines
You’ll discover how and why

I take my heart, into battle
Give that freedom bell a rattle
Get my independence signed, declare it on the dotted line
In Philadelphia freedom ring, and patriotic voices sing
Red, White, and Blue, never give up
We represent America!!!

I’m looking at life through my own eyes
Searching for a hero to idolize
Feeling the pain as innocence dies
Looking at life through my own eyes
I’m hoping and praying for a brighter day
I listen to my heart and I obey
How can I see it any other way?
I’m looking at life (looking at life) through my own eyes
