Now in these cynical times
Stereotypical minds
Got me falling from my pinnacle the minute I climb
Now these subliminal thoughts got individuals blind
I`m trying to look beyond the lies
Just to see what I`ll find
I`m like a flower in a cave
Another hour in the maze
And I`ll cower to the power of my criminal ways
The sun is shining but I`m catchin` minimal rays
It`s time for me to grow out of this childish phase
My life is like a battle that I`ll probably never win
`cause I keep thinking big and risking everything
Life`s a challenge and I wonder if I`ll ever find the balance
Mixed emotions and confusion topped off with many talents
CHORUS
Sometimes I wonder if I`ll ever change
Can I change
Would I change
Or am I always gonna be the same
I blame the world for making me such a freak
But the world wants to blame it on me
(my life is twisted)
My finger`s poiting in the mirror
I`m the one now
I see my shadow in the sun dial
Am I really out of change
Put my freedom in a cage
Slow down
Man I got a son now
There`s nothing new they all said it
And I know it but I had to go through it myself
I`m hard-headed
that`s the only way I`ll learn
Get caught in the fire there`s no escaping the burn
And it burns
Change this
Change that
Change is full of lies
I remain the same cat wear a good disguise
Living life looking through my third blind crooked eye
So if I change I`d be changing for the worst wouldn`t I?
CHORUS
I wanna run but if I run I`m only running from myself
Would it be easier if I were someone else
I`m like a child plain` with matches that`s never been burned
Relearning all the lessons that I`ve already learned
On a highway to a destination I`ve earned
So many exits, but I`ve never bothered to turn
I`m like a piece of shard glass laying on a frame of a window
That was broken by the bricks of pain
Sometimes I feel just like the devil`s guinea pig
He`s watching me just to see how deep I can dig
I admit I`m fucked up and got a lot to learn
So now I`m dancing in the ashes of the bridge I`ve burned
CHORUS
