about

Making the choice to be a new man is a long process.

lyrics

I'm not wild, but I can be crazy
I'm not free, but I can be a rebel without a cause
And this guitar, I write a song, so I can be anybody that I need
Until today, until today, I...

I climbed out of the mountains like an old man on his way
Who knew his course but got bogged down when he thought about the way I knew, the right way from the wrong, just because it's common doesn't mean I have to want it anyway

The sun don't seem familiar on the wrinkles I've provided through the years, just like dawn I saw the right thing when I let go of, the darkness and the pain, this atmosphere is toxic in the wake up and the strain, of holding on to a dream

I'm not wild, but I can be crazy
I'm not free, but I can be a rebel without a cause
And this guitar, I write a song, so I can be anybody that I need
Until today, until today, I...

The workout only works out when your mind is changed to make something of it, it feels so strange to finally stretch my wings I'm not ashamed to take it in, for who am I, to provide an institution for my soul, if I get high, there's one way down if I go, but I'm untied, and I'm not lost, so what's to know

Rollback generations in this poor exchange of broken thinking, I can't complain because I like the way I felt before this change, but now I'm here, and I know there's no intention of return, or runaway, of who I'm here

I went from walking weary through salvation still a poor and bitter man, I felt the joy of one courageous and unfailing sun of man, there's no fear, for I am planted in his sovereign graceful hands, shed no tear, take your stand, make no blame, and love yourself as love comands

I'm not wild, but I can be crazy
I'm not free, but I can be a rebel without a cause
And this guitar, I write a song, so I can be anybody that I need
Until today, until today, I...
