I’m a stranger everywhere I go
From Washington to Tokyo,
Angry eyes tell me I don’t fit in
I smile back but I can not win.
[Chorus:]
So I stand tall, and face the scorn,
It’s not the place but the time I was born.
The road ahead may be filled with hate
But I know my path and I walk it straight.
I was born, born at the wrong time
And I live, here at the wrong time
I was born, born at the wrong time
And I live, here at the wrong time
When I hear the countless voices whine,
I can’t believe it’s even worth the time.
I get angry for the things I see,
This is not the way the world’s supposed to be.
[Chorus:]
So I stand tall, and face the scorn
It’s not the place but the time I was born
The road ahead, may be filled with hate
But I know my path and I walk it straight
I was born, born at the wrong time
And I live, here at the wrong time
I was born, born at the wrong time
And I live, here at the wrong time
I think there’s not a place where I can go,
But I’ll be damned if I’ll follow the flow.
Angry minds have built an angry time,
It seems the worlds is used to what was once a crime.
[Chorus:]
So I stand tall, and face the scorn
It’s not the place but the time I was born
The road ahead, may be filled with hate
But I know my path and I walk it straight
I was born, born at the wrong time
And I live, here at the wrong time
I was born, born at the wrong time
And I live, here at the wrong time
I look back
I look forward
And I see, it all makes sense
