lyrics

Indian in Disguise

I'm trapped inside these institutional walls
Everyday I become somebody else
I once sailed the seas
Now I roam these streets
There was a time I was free

chorus

Feel so lost in these shoes
Who do you want me to be
Indian in disguise I feel so defeated
Everyday is a fight but I hold my head high
Can't you see I can't change who I am

Yes I love being brother of the bear
Something nay you all but understand
I once roamed this earth
Now I've lost my worth
I was born from this dirt
