The things that I read don’t mean nothing to me Nothing to me, nothing to me The things that I read don’t mean nothing to me Nothing to me, nothing to me 'Cause loyalty I learned from my family And music taught me how to speak True beauty I found in the wilderness Before she brought me down crying on my knees I studied the mistakes of my elders Still had to make all the same ones myself My TV taught me that there’s none you can trust But my friends taught me trust was enough And love I don’t know if I’ll ever be done I learn a little more every day Direction is pointless I can see it in the wind I travel but it blows me away Oh, I spent all my years in a school Only to find out I’m just a clueless fool Learned to listen when I learned to stop talking Realized I felt more than I show For most of what I did to have happened at all Determination I just had to know And love I don’t know if I’ll ever be done I learn a little more about it every day Direction is pointless I can see it in the wind I travel but it blows me away It blows me away I travel but it blows me away (ooh) The things that I read don’t mean nothing to me Nothing to me, nothing to me The things that I read don’t mean nothing to me Nothing at all
