Will Not Follow

My aspiration grows and with it grows my pride
No consolations just frustrations I don't mind
I crossed a thousand rivers and never will I tire
But I'll walk away, I'll walk away, And take my test of time

CHORUS

What's ahead That's for me to see and ...
What I am That's for me to be and ...
Where I go That's for me to know and ...
Now I lead And I will not follow

My hands they bleed from the pounding on the door
I fell face down and still I pounded on the floor
My hear it hurts and my throat it's gettin' sore
But I'll talk my way, I'll talk my way
And then I'll talk some more

CHORUS

Tomorrow dawn it lights the way for me
Down a road that goes on and on And on and on and on ...
Just survivin' it ain't the way to be
Tried it once and it took it's toll on me

He hesitated, never acted in the now
I never waited, wiped the sweat off of my brow
They congregated so I looked at them and bowed
And I'll have my way, I'll have my way
And never turn around

CHORUS
