The Man I See

Wanted to be somebody someday Couldn't find my way The man I see Wasn't the man I thought I'd be Lost in time Making things rhythm One step closer to who I want to be The man I want to see So many paths to take Tomorrow is mine to make Leaving yesterday in my wake Time passing by Puts tears in my eye Time just makes me older Life makes me bolder Love made me colder Looking out into the night Watched this big fight What a sight Lost in my mind It keeps hitting rewind Living in the past Became my cast Loosing my tomorrows Over yesterdays sorrow Stepped out past the pain Cause I had much more to gain Than living in the rain Everyday I try Somedays I still cry But on and on I go It is myself I need to show I have the strength I can go the length Find that man I seek Of whom I once had a peek Find the way Making it through each new day Till that man I see Is the man I be
