I Wasn't Born to Follow
Born to Rebel: Unleashing the Anthem of a New Generation
Lyrics
When I grow up I'm gonna be a star
Expressing a childhood aspiration of becoming a famous figure.
Gonna sing my songs and play my guitar, I'm ready
Anticipating a future of performing music and being prepared for it.
Gonna change the world, Gonna turn the page
Desire to make a significant impact on the world, symbolized by turning a page.
Gonna say what I feel, let out this rage, get ready
Expressing the intention to speak openly about personal feelings and release pent-up anger.
We're going down, down to the streets below
Announcing a descent to the challenges and realities of life.
Gonna sing the songs of the streets again
Commitment to singing about the struggles of everyday life.
Gonna knock me off my feet, so get ready
Expecting emotional impact from the experience of street life.
I'll sing a song for the fallen angels
Dedicating a song to those who have faced challenges and setbacks.
This one goes out to all the unsung heroes
Tribute to the unnoticed heroes and individuals who contribute without recognition.
We're going down, down to the streets below
Reiteration of descending to the realities of street life.
'Cause don't you know know, I wasn't born to follow
Asserting that the singer wasn't born to conform or follow conventional paths.
I realize that in your eyes you've got ideas
Acknowledging differences in perspectives with someone else.
But I've got mine, get ready
Asserting individuality and readiness for personal ideas.
Here comes the new generation
Welcoming a new generation and hoping they share the same passion and fight for their beliefs.
Hope they feel and fight the same way as we did
Encouraging the new generation to feel and fight similarly to the previous one.
We're going down, down to the streets below
Reiteration of the descent to the challenges of street life.
'Cause don't you know know, I wasn't born to follow
Reasserting the rejection of conformity and following one's own path.
When I grow up I'm gonna be a star
Repetition of the childhood aspiration to become a star.
Gonna sing my songs and play my guitar, I'm ready
Reiteration of readiness to sing and play music and impact the world.
Gonna change the world, Gonna turn the page
Renewed commitment to making a difference and expressing personal feelings.
Gonna say what I feel, let out this rage, get ready
Reiterating the intent to speak openly and release inner turmoil.
We're going down, down to the streets below
Final descent to the challenges and realities of street life.
