I've had the blues and I had the breaks
I had a million dollars just a little too late
But I stood up - For what I believed in
I ain't never gettin' down on my bended knee
To kiss the ass of the powers that be
And I ain't givin' up on what I believe in
So nobody can dig that thorn in my side
I ain't worried about no perfect disguise
Chorus
Time flies and I'm on the run
Time flies - I'm a loaded gun
Even if I'm fightin' at the starting gate
Can't hold me back - I'm gonna win the race
There'll me be no backin' down - From what I believe in
I've got the courage and I got the mouth
Ain't gonna live my life without doubt
No givin' up - On what I believe in
Repeat Chorus
Nobody can dig that thorn in my side
I ain't worried about no perfect disguise
I've opened my mind and I've opened my eyes
Repeat Chorus
