There Is No El Dorado

lyrics

I've been fed the same ideas since I was young and it's never tasted so stale.
I used to believe everything I was told but I'm tired of searching for a city of gold

But now I'm older and I can see through the lies that have been placed at my feet.
Deaf, dumb, and blind is not who I'm supposed to be.

You think your stance is on solid ground
But I will shake the earth free beneath your feet.

Can you feel that? Can you feel the tremor running down your spine?
I've shattered your resolve with just a few small words, it's a wonder you stood on your own this time.

Everything I've wanted in my life, I've had to do it for myself.
Find your motivation and keep moving forward.
The only one who can slow you down is yourself.

Let's make a pact to keep moving forward and never go back on our word.
We are the body but we allow them to use us like a puppet, substituting our voice with their own.
Don't let them tie our hands, we won't be bound and gagged.
Our song will ring strong in their ears.

There is no El Dorado!(x2)

Legends are only as strong as the voices that carry them.
