It's been a while since I last wrote
It's been a while since I last spoke
Doubts in my mind asking if I did grow
I don't see the change maybe cuz the change slow
I've been inconsistent, unaware
Unconscious of the habits that have taken me to places where I had no care to be in Now stuck in this position
Complacency has taken me and put me in unpleasant disposition
I thought I could do it on my own
'Cuz I thought that I knew everything there was to know
Apparently not, lessons i haven't been taught
Life had just been waiting to hit me and I think sped up the shot
Bright light's on me, got me blind and dead on the spot
Sometimes I wish I knew back then what I know now
And maybe make a difference in the way that things had played out
But I never regretted the things that i did and i knew
If i wanted to grow then I had accept it
Yes it was wrong, but I had to know that I failed so that I could pass it

To forget all you did, get revenge
I was different, I wanted to repent
If I did what you did then it wouldn't be the end of it
We would just be causing pain to people who do not deserve it
Making chains of broken kids who end up hurtin' other kids
Just because we were to weak to stand up and just own our shit
What you gotta do to renew the face of the earth?
Start with the individual
Stay true to yourself and pass on what you learn
'Cuz knowledge is power and power to people is change to the future
The future depends on kids on the right path
Gotta save them from our past and give em a present a better chance
Life is a free throw you only get a couple shots
So make em count, no repeats, no Bandersnatch now
