So many times I should of taken back this moment 
these words I spoke, I know it
now I can see clearly, I fold it
I shouldered too much weight, I hold it
too much pain and it destroyed me
and it rebuilt me 
and now it can feel me
it follows me everywhere I go but 
it can never break me 
now I know
I was liying to myself back then
but the [bad word] was 
always bleeding out my pen
I fade back to myself 
in the end
'am just one step away
I ascend,
I climb that faded staircase
as in, im reaching in vain 
just to hold on to them
once again
the memories seem to blend
my enemies and friends
seem to vanish in the wind

you wanna take back
everything you did 
but you can't
and when you say that
all the memories 
 [bad word] back... [bad word] back.... [bad word] back.....
 [bad word] back..... [bad word] back.... [bad word] back...

what does it take
to be one step closer 
to your dreams
does it mean 
everything in between
where you are right now
and where you wanna be
must suffer for the cause 
like it ought to be
"me against the world"
in apostrophes
you look around like
ain't nothing stopping me
this is my time my choice
like the whole [bad word] world
gotta hear my voice 
cause this is my music 
my thoughts my life
it ain't a song no more
it's a sacrifice, it's an offering 
of everything I got
like everything i'am reflects
everything 'am not
so much time wasted
and all the games that we played
like every stupid mistake
that we ever made
erase the future
it's the price that we paid
but [bad word] too deep
for the memories to fade

you wanna take back
everything you did 
but you can't
and when you say that
all the memories 
 [bad word] back... [bad word] back.... [bad word] back.....
 [bad word] back..... [bad word] back.... [bad word] back...
