aaron carter - through my own eyes lyrics

[kayla:] give me a world that's equal on all sides
[aaron:] let freedom flow as constant as the tides
[kayla:] i pray with each sunset, don't forget to rise
[aaron:] (don't forget to rise)
[kayla:] i live without regret
[both:] for ordinary lives

[both:] i'm lookin' at life through my own eyes
searchin' for a hero to idolize
feeling the pain as innocence dies
looking at life through my own eyes
i'm hoping and praying for a brighter day
i listen to my heart and i obey
how can i see it any other way?
i'm looking at life (looking at life)
through my own eyes

[aaron:] i see a land with liberty for all
[kayla:] yet still i know the truth will rise and fall
[aaron:] (oooh yeah-yeh)
that's just the way it goes
[both:] a word now to the wise
the world was made to change
each day is a surprise

[both:] lookin' at life through my own eyes
searchin' for a hero to idolize
feeling the pain as innocence dies
looking at life through my own eyes
i'm hoping and praying for a brighter day
i listen to my heart and i obey
how can i see it any other way?
looking at life (looking at life)
through my own eyes

[both:] and i know when you're looking for the truth
(mmmhmm)
if you go and read between the lines
you'll discover how and why

[aaron (rap):] i take my heart into battle
give that freedom bell a rattle
get my independence signed
declare it on the dotted line
in philidelphia freedom ring
and patriotic voices sing
red white & blue never give up
we represent america

[both:] i'm lookin' at life through my own eyes
searchin' for a hero to idolize
feeling the pain as innocence dies
looking at life through my own eyes
i'm hoping and praying for a brighter day
i listen to my heart and i obey
how can i see it any other way?
i'm looking at life (looking at life)
through my own eyes
