Yeah! Grown from a seed of hope I've never known Been raised by the surroundings of a home so cold, so cold If I only knew what I know I'll shake my fist up to the sky Just keeping my dreams alive I'm one part saint and two part sinner, And the last part is still on the line We pray even when we know nobody cares, ah ya And make everything we know turn into fear And then disappear If I only knew what I know I'll shake my fist up to the sky Just keeping my dreams alive I'm one part saint and two part sinner, And the last part is still on the line I'll shake my fist up to the sky Just keeping my dreams alive I'm one part saint and two part sinner, And the last part is still on the line Ya, ya, ya, Eye for an eye they told me for some time No way to hide from what's inside, what's inside of me! I'll shake my fist up to the sky Just keeping my dreams alive I'm one part saint and two part sinner, And the last part is still on the line I'll shake my fist up to the sky Just keeping my dreams alive I'm one part saint and two part sinner, And the last part is still on the line
