Life I have known While I have grown Some memories grow hazy But I have always embraced my crazy Time I was to bold I know this now that I am old I try to keep my heart from growing cold. Peace I always sought Even the times I fought My heart was free So much I have yet to see Hope Sometimes at the end of my rope Sometimes I had to take a knee Collect myself and gather the strength to be The man I call me The man I hope to save Before the grave Life passes like a wave I was who I wanted to be In the mirror, not who I expected to see But I accept it as me
