Ooh, I hear you say attitudes and times have changed And I know the feeling - it's long overdue You say this is a time to right old wrongs Tell me now, if it's true You got the mind, you got the time How long are you gonna wait to do what you want to do now You've been around too long Not to notice what's going on in town You've got to understand I'm taking my life in my own hands And gaining ground - look around Peace of mind You got yours - I want mine If you really want to do right by me See what you want to see But let me be what I want to be 'Cause you've been around too long Not to realize what's going on inside I'm just like you I'm doing the best that I can do to make my stride
