lyrics

How the foundation shook! My thought was overlooked.
Old man, tell me of the old days,
Tell me of the new world,
Tell me of the old ways-
When weak bodies could hold their weight on their own
And a man truly reaped what he sowed.
This is not the world I know.
The stronger man holds the smaller stone.
Would you stand for this?
Would you raise a fist protest?
I’ve tried to find the courage to be the one who sparks a revolution.
I’m begging to know the things you know.
I’m begging for the strength to stand on my own.
I’ve grown weak.
I’ve hung my head in defeat.
Leave me be. Let me wallow in shame;
I’ll find someone else to blame.
The foundation shook! Courage is overlooked.
Old man, tell me of the old days,
Tell me of the new world,
Tell me of the old ways.
This is not the world I know.
The stronger man holds the smaller stone.
I fear I’ve found my place.
I’ve claimed a home. The bed is made.
I’d rather lay down and die.
I’ll make my own way.
