Still Burning

Now i'm a little bit older

I'm expected to accept all the things that

I can't change

I'm supposed to stand aside

While the fairness you can't hide is paraded before my face

I won't acquiesce take second best

I'm never satisfied

Cos there's a fire inside won't be denied

And i'm still burning see you'll 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

I'd be giving in for sure

I won't acquiesce or take second best

I'm never satisfied cos there's a fire inside won't be denied

And i'm still burning you'll 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
