When I was born the seed was sown
I will not obey, my life is my own
Battle rules, which do enslave me
Exposed lies that enrage meI 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 freeI, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that beI, 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 deceitI ask my own betrayal
Cut so deep, suffered defeat
Only to rise againI, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that beI, I go my own way
I swim against the stream
Forever I will fight the powers that be
The eagle flies aloneALONE!I, I go my own wayI 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
