So many times I should have taken back this moment
These words I spoke I know it now
I can see clearly I folded, I shoulder too much weight
I hold in too much pain, and it destroyed me
And then rebuilt me and now it can feel me
It follows me everywhere I go but
It could never break me now I know
I was lying to myself back then
But the truth was always bleeding out my pen
I fade back to myself in the end
I'm just one step away I ascend
I climb that faded staircase of sin
I'm reaching in vain just to hold on to them
Once again, the memories seem to blend
My enemies and friends seem to vanish in the wind
(Chorus)
You want to take back everything you did but you can't
And when you say that all the memories they come back, they come back, they come back
They come back, They come back, they come back
What does it take to be one step closer to your dreams?
Does it mean everything in between where you are right now
And where you want to be, must suffer for the cause like it ought to be
Me against the world, In apostrophes
You look around like aint nothing stopping me
This is my time, my choice, like the whole damn world gotta hear my voice
Cause this is my music, my thoughts my life
It aint a song no more, it's a sacrifice
Its an offering of everything I got
Like everything I am reflects everything I'm not
So much time wasted on all the games that we played
Like every stupid mistake that we ever made
Erase the future, it's the price that we paid
But it runs to deep for the memories to fade
(Chorus) x2
