I've watched myself go through phases throughout time Build myself higher and higher each passing day To drown out the past i've longed to forget Built inside my thoughts there's progress This is progress With every step that i take, Forever embrace, this is the new beginning Break through the walls of defeat and keep gunning forward Evil that dragged me beneath exists no longer I know at times i think there's no hope but that's not me anymore I won't succumb to this misery life brings to me This is what i've grown to be I'm no longer the same Years have passed in between, No thought of loss, no thought of broken dreams I'm no longer the same No more pressure weighing me down, this burden's been lifted Free of the ones that weigh me down, they no longer linger I'm no longer the same I've watched myself go through phases throughout time Build myself higher and higher each passing day To drown out the past i've longed to forget Built inside my thoughts there's progress
