I’ve always tried to be aware
But, you know, it’s not always easy
I often stop and meditate
I hesitate
And I forget where I have been
And I breathe out, then I breathe in
But underneath my feet I feel
The cold ground
Time and again I face my past
Voices and colors dwelling my heart
And step by step I’ve got to know
That “better†for me is never enough
Sometimes I wish I could rewind
All my life and change the rhyme
I’ve always thought “I’ll be preparedâ€
But, you know, it’s never easy
I often stop and wait alone
All alone, all alone
So many memories have dies
Buried deep inside my mind
I’d never let them re-emerge
Every new day just feeds my soul
I know the best has yet to come
This is the reason to go on
Time and again I let it go
But above all the present is gold
And the end I’ve got to know
That “perfect†for me is never enough
Sometimes I wish that I could see
Myself, the way I move and speak
With the eyes of someone else…
