And I've always wanted to be something more,
Something more than the shadow that stands over me,
Just take this anchor thats drowning me,

Everything has come to this,
This purpose in life,
A reason to pursue,

And hope to move on

And nothing will ever take this away,

I won't let this world drag me down,
I'll finally take a stand,
My voice will be heard above the crowd,


And when the world turns it's back on me,
I will not fall,

I will remain and sustain,
Remain and sustain,


I won't be stopped,
I'm standing at the bottom,
But i'll make it to the top,

As soon as my feet are back on solid ground,
I swear i'll change,


And I've always wanted to be something more,
Something more than the shadow that stands over me,
Just take this anchor thats drowning me,

Everything has come to this,
This purpose in life,
A reason to pursue,

And hope to move on

I will outlive this hate,

And I will determine my own fate,
For I am my own man,
And nothing will ever change who I am,

For I am my own man,
And I will never change who I am.
