Live it down
There's a lot of us been pushed around
Red, yellow, black, white and
brown
With a tear of their own
Can't you see
While you're pickin' on society
That
the leaves on your family tree
Are callin' you to come home.
You're the keeper of the
castle
So be a father to your children
The provider of all their daily needs
Like a
sovereign lord protector
Be their destiny's director
And they'll do well to follow where you
lead.
In your head
You don't believe what the good book said
You're gonna strike
out now instead
'Cause the world's been unkind
Through thick and thin
Whatever shape
your heart is in
You only have one next of kin
Better keep 'em in mind.
You're the
keeper of the castle
So be a good man to your lady
The creator of the sunshine in her
day
'Tend the garden that you seeded
Be a friend when a friend is needed
And you won't
have to look the other way.
