Look at me, what do you see, do you see a man who yearns to be free? For although I walk these streets, those around me hearts have different beat. Does this make me a bad man, does this make me a fool? For unlike those around me, I know the golden rule
Chorus: Now I've worked hard at what I do, What do I do for you! And I know the golden rule, and the golden rule is.
Now no matter how I try, it breaks my heart when my children cry, But all they see is their daddy crying, but inside this man is dying, For I brought them into this world, so I must take the blame. When I see there is no future, For this I feel such shame
Chorus
Although I have tried for so many years, fought through the blood, fought through the tears. One man cannot turn the tide, but at least this man didn't run and hide. I just hope my children understand, I did what I could for our land. But it comes to nothing at the end of the day, There's ony one man who'll have his say.
