old man looking 'round with a faded memory
think now while you got the chance to be who you want to be
your freedom is on my mind and i don't want to face that pain
old man looking down trying to speak
speak now while you got the chance to say what you wanna say
your freedom is on my mind and i don't want to face that pain
the people try and talk to him with the same old stories
but don't fight that fact
talking through his history of peace and glory
seek all the times he remembers most of being young and free
'cause this moment will be gone
young man looks around and now he can see
that the colors of a rainbow don't change when it pours with rain
now he feels that to face the day
he doesn't have to look away no more
the people try and talk to him with the same old stories
but don't fight that fact
talking through his history of peace and glory
seek all the times he remembers most of being young and free
the people try and talk to him with the same old stories
but don't fight that fact
talking through his history of peace and glory
seek all the times he remembers most of being young and free
you've got the old man looking down
