Who Makes the Rules Steven Curtis Chapman

Well, I've been watching us very close
And I guess the one thing
That's been bothering me the most
Is when I see us playing
By the same rules that the world is using
Well, I've been listening
To the things that we say
And I, I hear us mention words
Like fortune and fame
And it makes me wonder
If we're sure about the side we're choosing
That's why I'm asking you

Who makes the rules for me and you
When it's wrong or right
Is it black and white?
Who makes the rules for me and you
It's our life at stake
So, we better know who makes the rules
Yeah, who makes the rules

When I see people just like you and me
Trying to live out the pictures they see on TV
Gotta have a new car, new clothes
New love when they get tired of trying
Well, I've been reading 'bout a different way
Talking 'bout dying to live and losing to gain
Seems like somebody's telling us the truth
And somebody's lying, I wanna know who
