With my feet firmly on the ground, I'll cast aside the path that you chose so blindly
Your future's happiness is falsely reinsured
I might just have these words, but at least they have a meaning
I refuse to fall short of the life I want to live
I'll cast aside this pointless life defined by boundaries and willingly let go of all those who confine me
And I will live my life step by step and day by day
Until I've made my mark and let the seas part to carry me away
I'll take my chance on the road less traveled,
And give up everything I have and expect nothing in return
I will never ask for anything in return
And all my life, I've been searching for a deeper meaning to understand why I feel so cold
I have nothing left to prove to anyone, cuz I will never settle for less again
I never thought my life would be like this, the person that I've grown to be, cannot be dismissed
As I sunk to the bottom, I was expected to choke
I've got blood from the blisters from climbing the rope
I never thought my life would be like this, the person that I've grown to be, cannot be dismissed
And I refuse to let anyone get the best of me again
