They can show you things
Or you can learn for yourself
You can have the life they want you to have
You can make something better.
You don't know your blessings
Until you've walked with evil men
Heart stomped on the floor
Wishing you haven't turned that corner.
But you can keep on walking
Leave him behind
Knowing why you perservere and stand up straight:
Dignity.
My self-respect is looming
I helped you cross the street
Now I'm the one who's lost.
I'm scared to turn the corner
I don't know who to trust.
Sanctity for my past
Revered as mostly legends
I hardly believe them myself.
I swear it's all true.
Underneath your fear(Because I know you're scared)
A lesson to be learned
Wisdom to be earned
Choices to be made
Innocence to be lost
The destination doesn't exist
The journey all there is
Travel with your eyes open
You don't want to miss it.
I've never wanted to look back.
Just too nostalgic to turn the corner
Where you are out of sight
Never out of mind.
If I told you the story of my travels
Would you want to take my path?
Or forge your own trail?
Would you want to travel with me, hand in hand
If you knew the road I've traveled
And the one that's still ahead?
