Walk
Walking Away from the Shadows: The Cloverhearts' Anthem of Liberation
Lyrics
If I had a buck for every time,
If I received money each time
I turned my cheek to the shots you fired.
I ignored the insults or negativity you directed at me
I'd own my own town where I could retire, From the hate you breed, from the pain and ire.
I would be wealthy enough to own a town and retire
But there'll come a day (Come a day)
However, a day will come
When I'll walk away (Walk away)
When I will choose to leave or end the situation
And my mind won't sway, (Won't sway)
And my decision will be firm
No matter what you say. (What you say)
Regardless of what you say or do
And there'll come a time (Come a time)
There will be a point in time
When you'll cross that line (Cross that line)
When you will cross a boundary or go too far
And with my head held high (Head high)
With my self-esteem intact
I'll just walk on by (Walk on by)
I will simply continue my path without confrontation
Coz time rolls on, but you don't change,
Because time progresses, but you remain unchanged
So I'll take my odds out on my own,
So, I will take my chances and face challenges independently
And walk away.
Choosing to distance myself
If I had a buck for every unkind word,
If I earned money for every hurtful word
I've given to you, I could buy the world.
I've said to you, I would be incredibly wealthy
And the older I get, the more I see the light. That this is no way for me to live my life.
As I grow older, I realize the importance of living positively
