I Wasn't Born To Follow Lyrics - Social Distortion

When I grow up, gonna be a star 

Gonna sing my songs and play my guitar, I'm ready 

Gonna change the world, gonna turn the page 

Gonna say what I feel, let out this rage, get ready 

We're going down, down to the streets below 

Gonna sing the songs of the streets again 

Gonna knock me off my feet, so get ready 

I'll sing a song for the fallen angels 

This one goes to all the unsung heroes 

We're going down, down to the streets below 

'Cause don't you know, I wasn't born to follow 

I realize that in your eyes you got ideas 

But I got mine, get ready 

Here comes the new generation 

Hope they feel and fight the same way as we did 

We're going down, down to the streets below 

Cause I wasn't born, I wasn't born to follow no 

When I grow up, gonna be a star 

Gonna sing my songs and play my guitar, I'm ready 

Gonna change the world, gonna turn the page 

Gonna say what I feel, let out this rage, get ready 

We're going down, down to the streets below 

'Cause don't you know, I wasn't born to follow 

We're going down, down to the streets below 

'Cause don't you know, I wasn't born to follow 

We're going down, down, down, down 

We're going down, down, down 

I said goodbye to the masses 

I wasn't born to follow
