I have seen the skyline burning And I have watched the deals go down Lost myself in seasons turning And I have walked on sacred ground Lived through nights that never ended I have had belief suspended Through and through But after all is lost and won After all is said and done I am you... I have taken foolish chances I have watched my leaders lie Fallen hard for love's advances And walked away when I should have tried I have filled my heart with hate Cast it out 'fore it's too late What else can you do? Times like these you must remember No quarter, no surrender I am you... I'm gonna hold on and see how this plays Brother to brother till the end of my days And that song you've been singing Well it pulls me on through I am you... I have stopped instead of started And I have watched my children grow Stood by graves of friends departed And found out just how much I do not know Followed when I should have led I have left too much unsaid Sad but true And after all is lost and won After all is said and done I am you... I'm gonna hold on, gonna see how this plays Brother to brother till the end of my days And that song you've been singing Well it pulls me on through 'Cause I am you... I'm gonna hold on, gonna see how this plays Brother to brother till the end of my days And that song you've been singing Well it pulls me on through I am you... I am you... I am you...
