Did they get you?
Did you fall into the game of “growing up”?
It’s not how they tell you it’ll be
Say you should do whatever makes you happy and they’ll back you
Then they’ll tell you that they are on your side
They never were
It’s you against the world
Take your stand
Be who you want to be
Not who they demand of you
Judges will judge no matter what
Let them say what they want
It shows their true nature
Make the change
Take the step
The life you want won’t come free
It’s a sacrifice
You must give to receive
'Cause everything we are
Reflects everything we’re not
Erase the future
Erase the past
All the games we played
Every word left unspoken
Every stupid mistake
All the secrets we keep
It never helped you
It can’t save you
The world doesn’t wait
It doesn’t follow your plans
Don’t lose control
I know your confused and torn up
You wish you could take all these things back
But you never can
The price was paid
Those memories flow through your veins
They run too deep for the memories to fade
What is it that you’re so afraid of?
This can be the life you seek
But time waits for no one
Hold your breath
Hold your dreams
Blood, sweat, and tears will forge the path
A path too dark for most to walk
The people who “just want what’s best”
They’ll hold you back
This road is harsh and unforgiving
But will bring you fulfillment that
Even angels will envy
tread the path untracked
