Lyrics: Michael Amott
Music: Michael Amott
When I was born the seed was sown
I will not obey
my life is my own
Battle those
who wish to enslave me
Expose the lies that enrage me
I don't believe in heaven
I don't believe in hell
Never joined the herd
could not adjust well
Slave, master,
it's not for me
I chose my own path, set my self free
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
I, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
The eagle flies alone
Reject the system
That dictates the norm
This world is full of lies
and deceit
I have felt betrayal
Cut so deep,
suffered defeat
Only to rise again
I I go my own way
I swim against stream
Forever I won't fight the power that be
I, I go my own way
I swim against stream
Forever I won't fight the power that be
The eagle flies alone
Alone
I I go my own way
I swim against stream
Forever I won't fight the power that be
I I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
The eagle flies alone
