Late bloom

I won't be a pawn
we roughed it up when we were young
i won't say so much for that
what do you do when it is done
cause i know
we grow
when it's over
I used to dream
all the force of solyent green
lazy geese and the weather warm
oh my life of humidity
but i know
we grow
(i know we grow)
when it's over
All that time
i spent walking behind
now i don't mind
cause now i know
They ran us out of town
oh come on they cut us down
raised the flag of the fealty
oh the life of futility
but i know
we grow
(i know we grow)
when it's over
All that time
that you were walking the line
well
now i don't mind
now i know
All that time
that i spent walking behind you
now i don't mind
cause now i know
We grow
when it's over
we grow
