just hear me out for a second or two
because I've got some things I'd like to say to you
I've been places in the past that I no longer go
and there are parts of me that I no longer show
it's not that parts of me died, it's that parts of me grew
and maybe if you thought about it you would too
and I've said and done things that I don't say and do anymore
and once there were things that I'm no longer living for
there's not a day that pa**es that I don't learn and change
and without all my experiences, I wouldn't be the same
so who I am today is the whole of who I've been
and my thoughts are just composites of all I've taken in
so I proclaim of what I think it's all nothing new
the only difference in it is what I choose to do
does your heart ever lead you where you know you shouldn't go
down a path of unsurety of something you've never known
because I have found myself there more than a time or two
and sometimes to let go is all that you can do
and somewhere in that freedom from the standards you've been taught
you'll find that who you want to be is someone who you're not
