Exactly |
I am awake |
Finally unafraid |
My dues are paid |
Gone are the days I displayed |
No rhyme because good times could go too quickly |
No reason pleased only by love |
No understanding of this human species |
But where I was |
Begged a why with no because |
Now I’m exactly what I used to be afraid I’d become |
And I’m exactly where I used to be afraid I’d belong |
I feel like I reflect as if I’ve entered yesteryear |
When just yesterday I appeared to be |
Somebody with no fears |
Of ever growing up |
I loved being stuck |
Sometimes I wish I was there |
No rhyme because good times could go too quickly |
No reason pleased only by love |
No understanding of this human species |
But where I was |
Begged a why with no because |
Now I’m exactly what I used to be afraid I’d become |
And I’m exactly where I used to be afraid I’d belong |
Life’s not over |
It’s finally mine to own |
My fears of the fall are gone |
I had no idea |
Still just me now |
Anticipation of the worst was simply wrong |
Yeah I was afraid |
I was afraid I’d become just like them |
Now just the fear of growing up and becoming that |
It almost killed me |
'Cause I had some plans when I was a kid |
I made some promises to myself |
Promises I began to feel I couldn’t deliver on as I grew older |
But you know what? |
looking back |
I love that hopeful kid |
Enough to prove to him |
That nothing can take away that hope |
nothing can take away his vision |
And just because my world is dead |
I came to fight to that noble end |
Gonna keep my eyes wide, |
walk outside |
stay myself inside |
And I’m exactly what I used to be afraid I’d become (And I belong) |
And I’m exactly where I used to be afraid I’d belong (And I belong) |
And I’m exactly what I used to be afraid I’d become (And I belong) |
And I’m exactly where I used to be afraid I’d belong (And I belong) |
