Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Shoulder to shoulder
I know it could be easy, yeah
Now keep your head up, talk to me
I know it could be easy, yeah
What would the world be
If we let it be just fine?
What would a smile be
If not a tear sometime?
[Verse 2]
Sister, sister
I know it could be easy, yeah
Now keep your head up, talk to me
I know it could be easy, yeah
What would the world be
If we let it be just fine?
What would a smile be
If not a tear sometime?
[Verse 3]
I'd rather fail on my own terms
And call it a lesson learned
I'd rather fail on my own terms
Than follow you and you burn
Good lord, I'd rather fail on my own terms
And call it a lesson learned
I'd rather fail on my own terms
Than follow you and you burn
[Verse 4]
Shoulder to shoulder
I know it could be easy, yeah
Now keep your head up, talk to me
I know it could be easy, yeah
What would the world be
If we let it be just fine?
What would a smile be
If not a tear sometime? (Ooh)
[Verse 5]
Mother, mother
I know it could be easy, yeah
Now keep your head up, talk to me
I know it could be easy, yeah
What would the world be
If we let it be just fine?
What would a smile be
If not a tear sometime?
[Verse 6]
I'd rather fail on my own terms
And call it a lesson learned
I'd rather fail on my own terms
Than follow you and you burn (Here alone)
I'd rather fail on my own terms
And call it a lesson learned
I'd rather fail on my own terms
Than follow you as you burn
[Verse 7]
I'd rather fail on my own terms
And call it a lesson learned
I'd rather fail on my own terms (Good lord)
Than follow you and you burn
