Years ago a man told me a secret he could tell it was something I needed to know He told me that I should keep it to myself until this day I haven't told a soul Everything we do we're pulling strings from up above When we give or take when we hate or when we love If you're gonna raise your hand let it be to do good things Because everything we do we're pulling strings I look around at how things are going the world keeps getting further from the truth Like that man told me what I needed to hear I've decided to make it known to you Everything we do we're pulling strings from up above When we give or take when we hate or when we love If you're gonna raise your hand let it be to do good things Because everything we do we're pulling strings All that we have today is from the strings that we pulled yesterday The world that will be ours tomorrow will be from the strings that we're pulling today I'm not here to talk about religion don't tell me fate or sell me fantasy Think it through make your own decision and we can always agree to disagree Everything we do we're pulling strings from up above When we give or take when we hate or when we love If you're gonna raise your hand let it be to do good things Because everything we do we're pulling strings
