Years ago, years before

I tried to write a melody about everything I felt driving in that driveway

This flood is taking hold of me so I hit my knees and shout to God that's with me

I'm on a ladder to Heaven

Hold tight, no lookin' down

You thought it was a fantasy, now the legacy is lit from the fire within me

Years ago, years before

I would have stayed right here and let the memories guide who the light inside shines for Would I fall?

Would you know my name?

Years ago, years before

But I'm not the same

This breeze is blowing different now

How did I allow a seed of doubt to move me?

Wise up and change the rhythm out for a smoother sound of what's flowing through me

I'm on a ladder to Heaven, I'm not gonna fall, let the past stay behind me

Years ago, years before (woah)

I would have stayed right here and let the memories guide who the light inside shines for Would I fall?

Would you know my name?

Years ago, years before

But I'm not the same, woah, but I'm not the same

I always wondered but I never had to fly till I was standing alone burning out inside hanging on to a leftover goodbye

Years ago, years before (woah)

I would have stayed right here and let the memories guide who the light inside shines for Would I fall?

Would you know my name?

Years ago, years before

But I'm not the same, oh I'm not the same (years ago, years before, but I'm not the same)

Would I fall?

Would you know my name?
