Captian of Your Destiny

<br>Words and Music by John Kay and Morgan Cavett<br><br>Now when you`re down and troubled<br>Like orphan in a storm<br>And you feel life`s weight upon you<br>Your body`s cold and worn<br>You know that there`s no mercy <br>For a child without a home<br>For the streets they hold no comfort<br>For a nameless soul unknown<br><br>And your life it lies before you<br>Like a rainbow `round the sun<br>And the promised they made to you<br>They always seem to get undone<br><br>You`re fighting waves of vast indifference<br>On the high and raging sea<br>You are the captain of your destiny<br>Nobody else can find the way for you to see<br><br>When you can`t see the way before you<br>For the darkness in your head<br>Remember only you can lead yourself to be misled<br><br>I`m standing by the wayside<br>With all my scars from time<br>Reading books of long gone heroes<br>Who died between the lines<br>I climb their walls of anger<br>They build with words of stone<br>Fighting on with tongue and dagger<br>`Til blood and truth are shown<br><br>В© 1976 Rambunctious Music (ASCAP) / Belly King Music (BMI)
