For The World To See

John Orr Franklin


I have the right to speak my mind
No words that cross or criticize
Free to hear what’s spoke behind
Your murmur veil alights the lies

Cause I know what I am and I will not fail
For I see what could be and I will succeed
It’s up to me to let it show
For the world to see

Upon my truth I’ll stand or fall
True intentions with time appear
I will not beg, no I will not crawl
Through admiration that’s insincere

Cause I know what I am and I will not fail
For I see what could be and I will succeed
It’s up to me to let it show
For the world to see

No way to hide behind destiny
You walk that line and you start to grow
Some things that were simply meant to be
Pick it up get on with the show

Cause I know what I am and I will not fail
For I see what could be and I will succeed
It’s up to me to let it show
For the world to see
