Lyrics

[Intro] [Instrumental Break, Saxophone] [Verse 1] "Born into a world of rules, Guided by life's seasoned schools. Told to walk this way, talk that tone, Every step set, not my own." [Instrumental Break, Electric Piano] [Verse 2] "Lines drawn clear in sand and heart, Every 'please' and 'thank' an art. Childhood's joy, yet a guided hand, Never alone where I stand." [Instrumental Break, Guitar] [Verse 3] "Years rolled by, pages turned, In their words, wisdom I learned. Do right, they say, and right will follow, Yet inside, something felt hollow." [Instrumental Break, Full Band] [Slow Pace] [Verse 4] "Cap and gown, cheers around, At life’s threshold, I’m newfound. 'What’s your plan?' they ask with glee, Not a whisper stirs in me." [Instrumental Break, Keyboard and Flute] [Verse 5] "Suddenly the path fades, blurred, In their eyes, doubt is stirred. 'He’ll learn,' they nod and agree, But no one took the time to teach me." [Instrumental Break, Saxophone] [Verse 6] "Taught to follow, not to lead, Plant my own roots, or be a seed? Now at life’s vast, open gate, I ponder too late, the slate." [Instrumental Break, Electric Piano and Light Drums] [Verse 7] "Can one who’s always followed find a way? Or am I doomed to others' paths to stay? No lesson in the books that line my shelf, Teaches how to be oneself." [Instrumental Break, Full Band] [Verse 8] "Here I stand, a man yet a boy, Armed with others' tools, others' joy. Must forge my trail in this wild, vast dome, To finally build my own home." [Outro] [Instrumental Break, Keyboard Fading Out] [End]
