I started to feel while I was walking down the street
Yes I did and I started thinking 'bout my destiny
And how maybe, maybe just someday
I could repay all the times you sang
All of your warm colors have painted all my days
And all of the tragic tears you took off of my face
'Cause I've fallen off of these train tracks and nearly seen my death
And I stand here with a song about to live
This will be my destiny
You will be my song and I will sing
So don't cover up your ears at me
And what I have to tell, I will bet these words, they find you well
I know, I know, when I see it, I will know, it's home
That I'll go when it's my turn to clock out
It's almost like dreaming, it's something I can't explain
That it's almost hard to think the same to try to be a different way
This will be my destiny
You will be my song and I will sing
So don't cover up your ears at me
And what I have to tell
So you, do you know what it is you do?
I assume that you're thinking, "Why yes, I do"
And I just hope and I pray that you change that soon
And I would hope and pray if I were you
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
If I were you, if I were you
If I were you, if I were you
I'd be asking every single person I knew
To [Incomprehensible] say a prayer for me
'Cause I will most assuredly die this century
And in this opportune-filled life that I will leave
I hope to God that I'll live for you and not for me
Woah, woah, woah, no, no, no
Can you hear me? Can you hear me now?
Is this thing on? Can you hear me?
'Cause I am speaking loud and clear
