I pour water on my face
I begin today
As an adult
Although I've been one
I choose now to say
I make my choices not following another person's steps
No cheating, anger, or divorces
No forgetting where I slept
I'll remember my past but it's not all I am
I'll remember how fast time went by like storm winds
I won't forget what's made me ME but I will forget the pain
Growing up making choices it's time for me to up my range
Range of thought
Range of will
Range of confidence in myself
I've done some wrong things in the past
They say they've forgiven me
Now I forgive myself
I bow my head
Alright
I stand and see the sun
The blue sky is so clear like the life I've begun
To live as a result of...
My choices
My desires
My passion
My goals
No person will ever again take away any of those
I get to do it right
Right now
Watch me as I go
As I grow
As I show
As I climb moutains
Reach levels
And GLOW
