Words of A Columnist

I’ve found myself in exile
From where I called my home
They said my life/dreams was futile
One they would not condone

What had I done to be
Abandoned on the street so suddenly
Had god forsaken me?
Or was I just a victim of society

One day a wise man came my way

Walk the path that was laid beneath you
Break the walls they’ve build around you
Were the words of a columnist
Were the words of a columnist
Don’t (ever) let the fog surround you
Cause your heart is there to guide you
Were the words of a columnist
Were the words of a columnist

Now I could understand
Why they had lost their sense of what was right
So now I take my stand
For liberty and freedom, it's not the end
Come with me, won’t you sing with me

There’s a place far away
Beauty grows there everyday
In the mirror, find a way
Cause all our minds were led astray

On this earth we are one
Erase the lines and break the norm
We are a world community
And these words will set us free

Walk the path that was laid beneath you
Break the walls they’ve build around you
Were the words of a columnist
Were the words of a columnist
Don’t (ever) let the fog surround you
Cause your heart is there to guide you
Were the words of a columnist
Were the words of a columnist
