Things have changed

And I feel like nothing's stayed the same

But I will... I will try

To lift this weight with the strength of my actual mind

Because I owe that to myself

In spite of the fear I feel about what comes next

I'm just trying to do what I can

In a way that I understand

Making a conscience choice to live a different way

So as such I will carry on

And carry hope in this heart in spite of all this pain

I can't keep living like this

As if I don't give a shit

I'm making a conscience choice to live for today

We gotta be the change we want to see

It starts with you and with...

me!

Because I'm so far from the person I aspire to be

Envious of those living this life

So free... so free

From weight

I refuse to be tethered to such shaky ground

With stones so cold, with no trust and no love

Nights that I've spent crying here wishing I could

Just tear down these walls...

Just tear down these walls...

I will learn to fly

And I will learn how to let go

I will learn to see the world

From a different point of view

Because things have changed

But I'll learn to see it another way

So watch me... watch me rise

With the strenght of my actual mind

And this raging fire I feel inside

I will set fire to these wings

I will learn to fly

And I will burn
