Renegade
You turn you weary eyes to watch
The changing of the avant-garde
Everyone's marching to the new drummer
But you walk alone and each step comes hard
Frenzied followers of fads and fashions
Passing passions and political views
They choose their words like they choose their clothes
But those poses just aren't you
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
Now you don't hear much from your college friends
Who spoke out and stood their ground
They've turned into couples
Beneath security blankets
Of suburban silence they lie down
Some play their cards right
Make their bid for the top
Of the jacket and tie society
But you can't bring yourself to follow suit
There's so much more you have to be
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
You're a pacifist with violent emotions
Your devotion is always strong
That anger of old still fills your eyes
When you see human rights being wronged
You're a wise man and a sentimental fool
To you friendship is more than a phase
Your decade's gone but you fight on
Though you're lonely and afraid
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
The changing of the avant-garde
Everyone's marching to the new drummer
But you walk alone and each step comes hard
Frenzied followers of fads and fashions
Passing passions and political views
They choose their words like they choose their clothes
But those poses just aren't you
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
Now you don't hear much from your college friends
Who spoke out and stood their ground
They've turned into couples
Beneath security blankets
Of suburban silence they lie down
Some play their cards right
Make their bid for the top
Of the jacket and tie society
But you can't bring yourself to follow suit
There's so much more you have to be
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
You're a pacifist with violent emotions
Your devotion is always strong
That anger of old still fills your eyes
When you see human rights being wronged
You're a wise man and a sentimental fool
To you friendship is more than a phase
Your decade's gone but you fight on
Though you're lonely and afraid
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
Renegade your youth is gone
Renegade still you fight on
Renegade your spirit's strong
You just refuse to fade
Renegade
