Lyrics

I could be loud man, I could be silent 
I could be young man or I could be old 
I could be a gentleman, or I could be violent 
I could turn hot man or I could be cold 
I could be just like the calm before the storm boy waitin' for all hell yeah to break loose 
I could be innocent or I could be guilty 
Doesn't mean that I won't believe in the news 
So I'm singing ... 

I could be rich like a wondering gypsy 
I could be poor like a fat wallet lost 
I could be the first man or I could come last 
It's not who breaks the ribbon boy it's how you get across 
I could be red, blue, black or white sunset 
As dark as a day boy or bright as a night 
I could be the sun boy or I could be the moon 
I made it from the stars boy I'm shining so bright 
So I'm singing... 

I could be asleep boy, or I could be awake 
I could be alive and a be the walking dead 
I could be ignorant or I could be informed 
I could lead my life man or I could be lead 
I could be anything I put my mind to boy all I gotta do is give myself a half a chance 
I could bring love back into my life 
And share it with the world if I had some balance
