I see a land with liberty for all
Yet still I know the truth will rise and fall (yeah)
That's just the way it goes, a word now to the wise
The world was made to change, each day is a surprise

Chorus 1: I'm looking at life through my own eyes
I'm seachin'for a hero to idolize
Feeling the pain as innocence dies
I'm Looking at life through my own eyes

I'll take my heart into battle
Give that freedom bell a rattle
Get my Independence signed
Declare it on the dotted line
Let Philadelphia freedom ring
and patriotic voices sing
red, white, and blue never give up
you represent America!

Chorus 2: Hopin' and prayin' for a brighter day
I listen to my heart and I obey
How can I see it any other way
I'm looking at life (looking at life)
through my own eyes
