This one goes out to the man who mines for miracles, This one goes out to the ones in need

This one goes out to the sinner and the cynical, This ain't about no apology

This road was paved by the hopeless and the hungry, This road was paved by the winds of change

This one's about anyone who does it differently This one's about the one who curses and spits

Walking beside the guilty and the innocent, will you raise your hand when they call your name?

This ain't about our living in a fantasy This ain't about giving up or giving in

Yeah, yeah, yeah

We weren't born to follow, Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow. You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

(coda) We weren't born to follow, oh yeah
