When I was born the seed was sown I will not obey, my life is my own Battle rules, which do enslave me Exposed lies that enrage me I don't believe in heaven I don't believe in hell Never joined the herd, could not adjust well Slave, master, it's not for me I chose my own path, set my self free I, I go my own way I swim against the stream Forever I will fight the powers that be I, I go my own way I swim against the stream Forever I will fight the powers that be The eagle flies alone Reject the system That dictates the norm This world is full of lies and deceit I ask my own betrayal Cut so deep, suffered defeat Only to rise again I, I go my own way I swim against the stream Forever I will fight the powers that be I, I go my own way I swim against the stream Forever I will fight the powers that be The eagle flies alone ALONE! I, I go my own way I swim against the stream Forever I will fight the powers that be I, I go my own way I swim against the stream Forever I will fight the powers that be The eagle flies alone
