Fritz Kalkbrenner - Willing lyrics

We've all heard so many conflicting words
About life, whether wrong or right
How you gotta be workin' hard
And it ain't no easy job
To survive just keep it alive
We've all come to think
Of ourselves as links
In a chain, so much to gain
We are the ones who tie
Our fathers to our sons
Don't you know, that's how we grow

What my life really means is that
The songs that I sing
Are just pieces of a dream
That I've been building
And we can make a stand and
Hey I'm reachin' out my hand
'Cause I know damn well we
Can if we are willing but we gotta be


Well we've all been so close to getting in
It's always nice, with no sacrifice
But times have changed and
It's no longer strange
To make a few corrections in our direction
'Cause being strong is more
Than just holdin' on
To advance, you gotta take a chance
Waitin' on line
It ain't nothin' but marking time
Won't get nowhere, just standing there

What my life really means is that
The songs that I sing
Are just pieces of a dream
That I've been building
And we can make a stand and
Hey I'm reachin' for your hand
'Cause I know damn well we
Can if we are willing but we gotta be
