Ode To My Past
Here's to you because you have
taught me..
To arise above the pain that life has
brought me.
If it wasn't for you I would never
know..
When I stood at the cross roads which way
to go.
You taught me to focus, see beyond my
eyes..
Press toward the mark never ever
compromise.
I saluate you 'ole' past, and all I've done
wrong..
Things I can change even the things I can't
atone.
These were the things from which I cried at
night..
Decisions I've made when I chose to call wrong
right.
Here's to you 'ole past' because you have
taught me..
To rise above the pain that life has
brought me.
