Question of Identity Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My forefathers came when the land it was open
And built it from nothin' to millions of acres
To live there in freedom, no fears to pursue them
To leave all their troubles and trials behind them
And they worked, and they slaved, and make better their livin'
Not chained to the laws of some other society

[Chorus]
And yet you try to tell me that it isn't worth havin'
Try to steal away my name
But my name is my own, and I'm gonna keep it
I'm not a jee jaw in your game

[Verse 2]
Oh, your schools and your masters are trying to tie me
To the rules of your game and the cold of your highway
In little black boxes tied tightly with ribbon
Your face is like faith, behind masks are well hidden
As you strive for the things that to you may seem golden
And mean something to you, but to me they mean nothing

[Chorus]
And yet you try to tell me that it isn't worth havin'
Try to steal away my name
But my name is my own, and I'm gonna keep it
I'm not a jee jaw in your game

[Verse 3]
So don't try to change what you're not understandin'
Over me your world has no jurisdiction
For you can't understand what you speak of in passin'
So just leave me alone, I don't want know ya
I don't want you to show me where I should go to
For you haven't yet found your own long-sought utopia

[Chorus]
And still you try to tell me that it isn't worth havin'
Try to steal away my name
But my name is my own, and I'm gonna keep it
I'm not a jee jaw in your game
