Lyrics

They taught him right and what to believe

He was taught the correct principles and what to believe in.

How to live by the rules

He learned how to abide by societal norms and regulations.

They all restrained his hungry heart,

Others controlled his passionate and eager heart.

With time he would conceive

Over time, he would understand or perceive.


Walked the path of a righteous man

He followed the path of righteousness.

Taught him how to belong

He was educated on how to fit in or belong.

A winding road, and now it seems

Life's journey was intricate and now it appears.


No, the world is on my shoulders

He feels the weight of the world's problems.

I'm the one against the world

He stands alone in opposition to the world.

The one they led astray

He was led astray by others.

But I'll know till my dying day

However, he will persistently acknowledge this truth until he dies.

I'm the only one against the world

He believes he's the sole opposition against the world.


Never stray from our way of life

He was taught never to deviate from their prescribed way of living.

Vent your anger within

He's encouraged to internalize his rage.

Betrayal, it makes a bitter man

Betrayal transforms a person into a resentful individual.

The truth cuts like knives

The truth can be piercing and painful.


Now look at him and what he's become

Observing what he has evolved into.

He still kneels for them all

He still shows reverence or submission to them all.

A broken pawn, about to fall

He's a fractured pawn, about to collapse.


No, the world is on my shoulders

He feels burdened by the world's problems.

I'm the one against the world

He sees himself as the antagonist against the world.

The one they led astray

He was misled or misguided by others.

But I'll know till my dying day

However, he'll persist in recognizing this truth until he dies.

I'm the only one against the world

He believes he's the solitary opposition against the world.


There he stands alone again

He stands isolated once more.

Watch his world become unreal

Witnessing his world disintegrate into something unreal.

Forever astray

Permanently lost or adrift.


No, the world is on my shoulders

He feels burdened by the world's problems.

I'm the one against the world

He perceives himself as the antagonist against the world.

The one they led astray

He was led astray or misled by others.

But I'll know till my dying day

However, he'll persist in acknowledging this truth until he dies.

I'm the only one against the world

He perceives himself as the lone opposition against the world.


Against the world

In opposition to the world.

The world

The world.
