lyrics

Tied down to the metaphorical weight that was placed upon us by those that make the rules we flutter about with a false sense of knowledge and understanding as we lack the ability to look out our window and perceptually soak the information that has been given or has yet to be given we may never fully recognize a struggle other than our own and only untying the bow that frees us from this weight will let us understand that time and place should never affect our outlook on life and learning to open our minds past societal constraints placed upon us by those that make the rules will truly set us free this distance the frivolity of these standards and expectations entertaining our lack of expansion persistence maintain while you're on pins and needles facing your greatest fear not being one with the crowd taking limitations away from ideology desperate times call for revolution revolution revolution sam went to school just like every other day all the kids would call him names and laugh in his face not a day went by that he could get away from the kids and their names yeah the kids and their names they say go away sam nobody wants you around all the kids would push him down go home get lost another day just another routine day with the kids and their names yeah the kids and their names at night he'd find refuge in his room thinking why do things have to be this way to be this way but what doesn't kill you can only make you stronger and what you feel you should always stay true to yourself he would push on couldn't let them get him down he would have to walk in and face the music and he just stands while he imagines rubber bands cause one day cause one day cause one day he's gonna show them all and not a day went by sam didn't hold his head up high and words were running through his mind cause one day you'll see and sammy wears a smile on his face cause one day cause one day cause one day he's gonna show them all "this world will never stand in my way" these words held onto he'd say over and over and over and over again he knew the only thing that he felt all he ever wanted to be was a beautiful girl (x4) so sweet the sound (/x4) (1) tied down to the metaphorical weight that was placed upon us but that rope will come undone yeah we will cut down through the chains and as we utilize information and as we recognize anthers' struggle and as we open our minds and as we set ourselves free (/1) (2) (x2)you can be who you want to be you can see who you want to see you can live how you want to live we can be ourselves (/2) (3) (x4) so sweet the sound (/x4) (/3) and now she's turning heads and causing car wrecks and when she wears that dress she's got the boys all the boys sa-sa-saying ooh-la-la and now she's turning heads (and now she's turning heads) and causing car wrecks (car wrecks car wrecks) and when she wears that dress (that dress) she's got the boys samantha.
