Not Without A Purpose lyrics

Not without a purpose and it's not without a fightI've got three tales to tell you so please sit tightIt's the story of three underdogs who've grown to see their lightNot without a purpose, not without a fightBeen away for far too long, you're on my mindGot your picture and I stare at it all the timeMinutes turn to hours, hours into daysAnd as each one passes by it feels all the sameBut the lights they go dark, Man In Black on the P.A.Walk up the stairs as one again to decimate the stageNot without a purpose and it's not without a fightOur spirit lives forever blinded by the city lightsIf we keep our act together we might make another nightNot without a purpose, not without a fightHey, I was always just another average kidLooking up to the Pistols, idolizing SidI guess my parents never really felt the sameSpikes and leather jackets hurt my family nameNow I'm on the streets, now I've been locked outFriends and punk rock music were the only way outStarted as a firm believer, now I own
my doubtsAs it's pretty clear a civil war has broken outA Southie iron worker leaving work behindAs W.M.D. propaganda warped my fragile mindBut now I've lived the truth, my eyes are open wideE.T.S. to Boston leave an oil war behindNot without a purpose and it's not without a fightAnother poor kid caught up in a fire fightI don't believe in Jesus but I pray to God tonightNot without a purpose, not without a fightNever give up, never give in, never walk away, always fightingNever give up, never give in, never walk away, always fightingBeen away for far too long, you're on my mindGot your picture and I stare at it all the timeMinutes turn to hours, hours into daysAnd as each one passes by it feels all the sameNot without a purpose and it's not without a fightOur spirit lives forever blinded by the city lightsIf we keep our act together we might make another nightNot without a purpose, not without a fightNot without a purpose and it's not without a fightOur spirit lives forever blinded
by the city lightsIf we keep our act together we might make another nightNot without a purpose, not without a fightNot without a purpose, not without a fight
