Lyrics

You're always waiting for me to lose
Take 3 steps back and go down again
You've always got something big to prove
No time to say "How have you been?"
I'm counting my fingers up to ten
And when the count hits eleven
I'll be out of the picture that you always imagined
So now that we've settled scores
I have found my place
I've became something more
Than a useless pawn on the board
Sometimes you don't know where to go
The space you need is out of your reach
Sometimes it's the rips that you sew
That piece you back again
I've come a long way
I'm still here today
I Fought the demons that haunted my brain
Ignore the loss, pay the cost, and advance so
It's safe to say that I'm better than yesterday
So won't you take this advice
Learn a lesson from me
I never wanted to be
Anything less than all of your needs
But you're just too much, too much, and I'm getting old
You made me crack but I dug myself out the hole
You're on your own
And I'm unstoppable
I took a shot in the right way
I was alone
Now I'm the carved stone
Lead the way of the arrow
I've found my way and I'm happy to believe
That you were wrong and I'm better than yesterday
