Young Man Alive - Benjamin Amaru

I am sitting in my room, smoking cigarettes alone

I am thinking of a time when I felt a little more

And I finish my last beer then I write another song

When I scream, when I shout, I think I feel a little more

I am running down the streets, little town is where I’m from

Stumbling over my own feet, and when I fall, I will know

I will know that it is yes and it won’t ever be no

I will know my heart will lead and it will show me where to go

And when I sing, it will be honest, this is something that’s for sure

And what I say, I swear I mean it, all the lyrics, every song

And I don’t wanna be nobody, know I wanna be someone

I don’t do this for my ego but my legacy alone

Young man alive, ooh young man alive

Young man alive, oh young man alive

And I will never be a hero but I can try to help you out

All the love that I will give you is for free, I’ll send it out

You’ll receive it in a package full of hope right on your porch

I will stand there in the rain until you open that door

And I will talk about the time when we felt a little more

We will finish our last beer when we’re listening to a song

Let them hear us like thunder to the words and to a storm

This is me, this is us, this is every single one

And whatever I will do, I will not do without a doubt

Then I’ll be wrong, I will be right, but it will come right from my heart

And you can hate me, you can love me, but I say it one more time

I will sing, I will dance, I will love, and I will cry

Young man alive

Oh, young man alive

Young man alive

Young man alive

Young man alive

Oh, young man alive

Young man alive

Oh, young man alive

Young man alive

I’m a young man alive

We’re young men alive

Young men alive

Young men alive

Alive, alive

Young man alive

Alive
