As I look back now it's exactly how you said But it made no difference to the life that I led The route that I took may mean that I learnt hard But you only get one chance to make things play the way you're dreamin' of I didn't know then but then what the f** is life for I still regret it, but now I strong than before And this strength will open up new doors See things I never saw before I never claim I'm the blessed I have faith in myself and belief in this message No I never claim I'm the blessed I have belief in my strengths and respect for my weakness Cos he who can learn to respect and seek to understand Can overcome or learn to play another hand Yes he who can learn to respect and seek to understand Can look back and say Now I'm stronger than before My strength will open up new doors See things I never saw before I stand now focused again It takes time to reach a peace within I stand now focused again It takes time to reach your peace within You see to try but you never ask the question why Too concerned with your need for an alibi It's only try cos you never find your reason why Too concerned with your alibi
