Once when I was young
I thought of life another way
I'd take the world and I'd do it alone
I'm standing up to what I won't allow
Master of my fate, captain of my soul
I try to sympathize, but can't help from growing old
I'm trying
You can't see it
I'm face to face with a veiled thief stealing
That youthful feeling
You think I've lost yeah?
You're losing too but you keep on trying
I lived a harder life
A path I wouldn't compromise
I had to learn to bend so I wouldn't break
I'm holding on to what I know is right
I walk a crooked line but choose the steps I take
Youth
My fears
My hopes
My dreams
Time
My strength
My goals
My life
