Not in My Nature

Do we have a choice whom we love, whom we hate?
Do we follow on to a predetermined fate?
Can we make a change in the course of events
Or are we nothing more than non-participants?

It's just not in my nature
To submit to some creator
And be a child to this will
I'm made for something greater
I can't believe in a made-up maker
All I believe in is myself

Learn to stand up straight and walk tall
Before you bend down on your knees
Save yourself 'cause no one else
Will save you from this living hell

It's pretty crazy
When you think about it
We could be the stars
Of a weird divine script
Tell me, baby, do you think we met by chance
Or is this love some kind of heaven-made romance?

It's just not in my nature
To submit to some creator
And be a child to this will
I'm made for something greater
I can't believe in a made-up maker
All I believe in is myself

Learn to stand up straight and walk tall
Before you bend down on your knees
Save yourself 'cause no one else
Will save you from this living hell
