Still Burning

Now im a little bit older
Im expected to accept all the things that
I cant change
Im supposed to stand aside
While the fairness you cant hide is paraded before my face
I wont acquiesce take second best
Im never satisfied
Cos theres a fire inside wont be denied
And im still burning see youll never put the spark out in my soul still burning and injustice builds a bonfire in my core
Still burning.
If i turn my back on all the honesty you lack
Would that make me more mature?
By pretending to be blind, and accepting all your lies
Id be giving in for sure
I wont acquiesce or take second best
Im never satisfied cos theres a fire inside wont be denied
And im still burning youll never put the spark out in my soul
Still burning and injustice build a bonfire at my core
Still burning
We like to think we live in a fair & justice society
Yet we can still lock a man away for 19 years
Having denied him the use of witness statements
That might have cleared his name and we call that justice?
Not in my eyes
