When I was born No silver spoon in my hand No trumpet blew No bells rang out in the land Nobody said life would be easy Nobody promised me an island in the sun For all my life I've walked as tall as I can Among the crowd A small invisible man I wasn't born to be a hero I have to make the dream become reality I know that somewhere there must be A golden key And the reason to believe There is freedom in the air And it's easier to breathe A golden key That will open any door And the truth that lies within Is no secret anymore I fill my shoes And walk wherever they go A man of straw For every wind that may blow I have to take control of my life I want the world to see A different side of me Unlock these chains and set me free A golden key To a castle in the air And a heaven here on earth Will be waiting for me there A golden key To the place I want to be On an island in the sun And the hero would be me Don't want to live my life in silence One taste of paradise Is all there has to be All there has to be Set me free A golden key To a castle in the air And a heaven here on earth Will be waiting for me there A golden key And my life would be complete With a crown upon my head And the whole world at my feet A golden key
