paul marcus - i am not trapped lyrics

Loading...

well all you cynics would have me believe
that any moment of goodness and peace
is just there to keep me believing

in something that could never be

you say all we can do is hunker down
l!ck our wounds
on this sad day in history

well i won’t let you reduce me to
how the story’s gone so far
some folks spend their whole lives
covering their scars
i’m gonna carry mine with me
to the mountaintop
as i reach for the stars

i for one
i am not trapped
long as somehow i hold on to my humanity
and find the strength to push back
i for one
i am not trapped
just because i’ve lost way more battles
than i’ve won that don’t define who i am

well my dear pessimistic friend
losing the battle with your bitterness
i get it you don’t want to get your hopes up
only to be disappointed again
and you tell me it’s a forgone conclusion
hatred always trumps love in the end

well i won’t let you reduce me to
how the story’s gone so far
some folks spend their whole lives
covering their scars
i’m gonna carry mine with me
to the mountaintops
as i reach for the stars

i for one
i am not trapped
long as somehow i hold on to my humanity
and find the strength to push back
i for one
i am not trapped
just because i’ve lost way more battles than i’ve won
that don’t define who i am

who knows
maybe it’s in doing
the smallest act of kindness for someone
i’ll know what it’s like to be free
yeah lately i’ve been thinking
as long as i can brighten
the corner wherever i may be

i for one
i am not trapped
long as somehow i hold on to my humanity
and a few friends to help me push back
i for one
i am not trapped
just because i’ve been told a lifetime full of lies
that don’t define who i am

i for one
i am not trapped
long as somehow i hold on to my humanity
and find the strength to push back
i for one
i am not trapped
just because i’ve lost way more battles than i’ve won
that don’t define who i am
i am not trapped
