SOJA - Shadow lyrics

[Chorus: Trevor Young] I'm not a shadow I'm not the ground beneath your feet I'm not a shadow When you look down, you won't see me I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone I'm not a shadow, cause I'm not a shadow [Verse 1: Soja] Here's to you don't settle, and never separate And never be quiet cause the words you say You never go back on and never turn around Never judge another cause as stupid it sounds Cause when you see others knowing they're all brothers Knowing they're all sisters, seeing the big picture If they're not with you, then they're against And were here now when they are way back when So why try to please everyone? When it seems that all the people really want Is to show love, and out and get love back Is to show some faith and get respect Just look at the world then, you look at the problems And look at the hatred, and we still can't solve it So look inside and you'll find step one Forget a diamond I'm shining like the sun [Chorus: Trevor Young] I'm not a shadow I'm not the ground beneath your feet I'm not a shadow When you look down, you won't see me I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone I'm not a shadow, cause I'm not a shadow [Verse 2: Soja] Here's to you on your own, the innocent criminal You never fit the mold, you never go sit down You never go get approval no matter how you prove That love is the motive in everything you do And revolution is you and you're against the machine You know who you are and you know what I mean And when this record stops you would never slow down When the video is over you want your turn now so You make the truth and move straight ahead While the followers behind you get left for dead For the imminent brainwash follow the dumb rules Created by individuals who unlike you Don't care for the world or, care for the people They love it their way, and they love unequal And they love when they feel above someone I don't follow the leader when they're all wrong [Chorus: Trevor Young] I'm not a shadow I'm not the ground beneath your feet I'm not a shadow When you look down, you won't see me I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone I'm not a shadow, cause I'm not a shadow oh no no
