For Myself (Explicit)

ON MY WAY OUT HERE I TOOK A LOOK IN THE MIRROR

I SAW A BOY AT THE AGE OF TWELVE SEEING THINGS

SO MUCH CLEARER THAN I SEE THEM NOW

BUT WE ARE HERE TO LET GO WE ARE HERE TO FORGIVE

EVERYTHING ELSE IS A CURSE

I TOOK ALL THE PUNCHES AND SMILED MY WAY THROUGH IT

SOME OF YOU PROBABLY DID THE SAME

I KNEW IT

AND I NEVER FORGET THE DAY I KNEW WE WERE FRIENDS FOR LIFE

AND SHE CALLED ME HER LOVER FOR THE FIRST TIME

WE COULD NOT WAIT TO GET OLDER TO ESCAPE THIS SHIT

WE TOOK A LAST LOOK OVER OUR SHOULDERS

PROBABLY WE SHOULD HAVE LEARNED SOME MORE TRICKS

BEFORE WE ENTERED THE STAGE OF ADULTHOOD

WHATEVER THAT MEANS

I WILL FIND OUT I WILL FIND OUT FOR MYSELF

NOW WE ARE CALLING OUR EGOS EVERY TWO MINUTES

CHECKING THE INBOX NOTHING NEW IN IT

AT LEAST NO ONE KNOWS WHAT'S GOING ON INSIDE OUR HEADS

DO WE OWN TIME

DO WE OWN OUR MINDS

DO WE OWN THE LIGHT

MAYBE WE DON'T OWN ANYTHING

BUT WE GOT OUR IMAGINATION COMPASSION AND OUR WILL

AND NO ONE NEEDS A KISS ON THE CHEEK

I WILL FIND OUT I WILL FIND OUT FOR MYSELF

AND I WILL HOLD IT KEEP IT AND TREAT IT LIKE A FRIEND

BUT I WILL FIND OUT I WILL FIND OUT FOR MYSELF

I WILL HOLD IT KEEP IT AND TREAT IT LIKE A FRIEND

BUT I WILL FIND OUT FOR MYSELF
