Movin' forward, it's the only way
I was thinkin' about my mother, it was mother's day
Time's been tickin', funny how it goes
Changing directions, four winds blow
Movin' closer to, like to somethin' though it seems
A better mind has, better dreams
I'm a bad boy, the worst there ever was
But can he be forgiven, he who knows not what he does
I changed my mind, I kind of changed it on a dime
I Learned to honor my gifts, gonna practice till it sticks
I'm gonna weigh what i speak, before i turn the other cheek
Gonna be now for what's good, just like the way i never could
Those old letters, burn them in a fire
I'll tell you right now, I'm afraid and i'm a liar
Bad got worse, that's the way it ran its course
South to North, back and forth, back and forth
But I saw the glory, there was proof that i was shown
Closer than you know, miles more to go
Hearts play games, but circles end up the same
So it's all new now, what i love and trust
There's still bait but, I don't take it much
But somewhere in the rust, there's still a piece of us
Ain't no thing to stop it, just change inside my pocket
So I quit the need to know, why I can't let you go
