WILLING

We've all heard so many conflicting words
About life, whether wrong or right
Of how you gotta be working hard
And it ain't no easy job
To survive, just keeping alive
We've all come to think of ourselves as links
In a chain, so much to gain
We are the ones that tie
Our fathers to our sons
Don't you know that's how we grow?
What my life really means is that
The songs that I sing
Are just pieces of a dream
That I've been building
And we can make a stand and
Hey I'm reaching out my hand
‘Cause I know damn well we
Can if we are willing
But we gotta be willing got to be willing
Got to be willing got to be willing
Well, we've all been so close to getting in
It's always nice, with no sacrifice
But times have changed
And it's no longer strange
To make a few corrections in our direction
‘Cause being strong is more
Than just holding on
To advance, you gotta take a chance
Waiting on line
It ain't nothing but marking time
You won't get nowhere just standing there
What my life really means is that
The songs that I sing
Are just pieces of a dream
That I've been building
And we can make a stand and
Hey I'm reaching out my hand
‘Cause I know damn well we
Can if we are willing
But we gotta be willing got to be willing
Got to be willing got to be willing
We've all heard so many conflicting words
About life, whether wrong or right
Of how you gotta be working hard
And it ain't no easy job
To survive, just keeping alive
We've all come to think of ourselves as links
In a chain with so much to gain
We are the ones who tie
Our fathers to our sons
Don't you know that's how we grow?
What my life really means is that
The songs that I sing
Are just pieces of a dream
That I've been building
And we can make a stand, and
Hey I'm reaching for your hand
‘Cause I know damn well we
Can if we are willing
What my life really means is that
The songs that I sing
Are just pieces of a dream
That I've been building
And we can make a stand, and
Hey I'm reaching for your hand
‘Cause I know damn well we
Can if we are willing
But we gotta be willing got to be willing
Got to be willing got to be willing
