You're not a boy anymore
But not quite a man
So wise in your eyes
But your heart is in your hand
So many ideals
That blow them away
They can feel the power
In everything you say
Stick to your guns
Be who you are
You are the future
You bear the scar
Don't let them change you
Or what you've begun
Run for your freedom
Run rebel run rebel run (x2)
Walking out of step
The beat's not the same
Are you the different drummer
Who cannot play their game
Pure hearted hero
Your spirit so bright
Through the long dark tunnel
You can see the light
The truth that you see
Is all that you know
What they say doesn't matter
What they say isn't so
You know the answer
Is not found with a gun
For all of the children
Run rebel run rebel run
Don't let them change you
Run rebel run rebel run
No don't let them
Run rebel run rebel run
Run rebel run
Eyes so clear, heart so old
What drives you so hard
Wondering what secrets do you hold
Living just like them would be like
Living a lie
You're more than a vision
You're more than a dream
You know what you want
You say what you mean
So march through the streets
March on towards the sun
They're right there behind you
Run rebel run rebel run
Don't let them change you
Run rebel run rebel run
No don't let them
Run rebel run rebel run
Don't let them change you
