Lyrics
Did I tell you about a time
When I figured out
The answers to my problems
and this world
Thought there in my
front pocket within my wallet
Chorus
Thought I found security
Thought I found liberty
I guess I'm not that lucky
Thought I found the answer key
Verse
Boy was I wrong
Boy was I wrong
Boy was I so wrong all along
Suicide was temporary
Would have killed myself last January
It's kind of a permanent act
So I think I will just kick back
Take one day at a time
and make up another rhyme
Breakdown
Everyday I look inside this mirror
and I try to find this man
Man without fear
Everyday I justify what it takes
To be this man
I'm his fan
I know he's hiding from his own shadow
I see it in his eyes everyday
