I look back on these last years
Did I really make them count?
Could I have done this any different
Or was I destined to go round n' round?
I wish I'd known what I do now
Before the earth had gone once around
Has the time wasted just been earned?
When I let go what have I learned?
I just want to become the person that I'm meant to be
To finally figure out how to set myself free
Ive worked and cried, just to find, how my eyes see
I want the real me no longer A Year From Now
I shed the mask that I was wearing
And took one good hard look
At a boy who'd become so weary
By a man who had just over looked
Under white clouds a dust settled
Where once there were drums of war
To know a new paradise is coming
That an old man has been waiting for
