Don't take me for someone who's never known trouble
I've seen it all before
Please
keep all your handouts
I've fought through the shadows
And I'm better on my own
Someone's gotta walk out ahead
Before the people can follow Try me,
no you don't owe me
It's a new day,
I'm lonely as a grave I'm free,
my mother told me
No one to save us Don't need no favors
We're better on our own
Someone's gotta walk out ahead
Before the people can follow Try me,
no you don't owe me
It's a new day,
I'm lonely as a grave I'm free,
my mother told me
I'm free,
my mother told me I'm free, my mother told me
Someone's gotta walk out ahead Before the people can follow
