Matt Forshay

I AM 

I am an intelligent, strong willed man    
I wonder where I truly belong
I hear everyone criticizing from behind
I see all the goals of my life
I want to reach them through hard work
I am an intelligent, strong willed man

I pretend that I can change the past
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
I touch my memories to inspire
I worry that they may repeat
I cry still thinking of the mistakes that were made
I am an Intelligent, strong willed man

I understand that I cannot change the past
I say that there are no regrets
I dream that I will be the best
I try my hardest to accomplish all that I said
I hope that I can learn from the past
I am an intelligent strong willed man

That's why we can't spend much time wishing to change the past but what we will do to change the future.
