Listen not to ones who preach

Those who feel you're a freak

Everything about you is wrong

You must be sick, you don't belong



Father said, worry not what they say

Use your mind, your own free will

In a time when everyone follows

Ignorance can kill



They only say what they want you to hear

Half-truths have been twisted to conceal your fate

In a world of spoon-fed emotion

Intelligence can save



Chorus:

Stand alone

Hear what I say

Stand alone

You will seize the day



Son, say what you mean, don't be afraid

Tell them how you feel, hear what I say

Be true to yourself and true to your own

Your spirit will crush the hearts of stone



Stand alone

Hear what I say

Stand alone

It's a leap of faith
