Lyrics
So many things I thought I’d never do and then I did
Reflects on unexpected accomplishments despite initial doubts.
My wildest dreams were only drafts in my insanity
Describes how their ambitious dreams seemed irrational before achieving them.
In my insanity
Reiteration of the feeling of insanity regarding those dreams.
I hopeful thought that strikes and brings them to reality
Expresses hope that determination will materialize aspirations.
And then the joy to be the person that I wanna be
Finding joy in becoming the desired version of oneself.
I wanna be
Reaffirmation of the aspiration to become one's ideal self.
A step by step that ends up shaping the strategy
Emphasizes incremental steps that lead to a well-thought-out plan.
I may not know how to get there
Admits uncertainty about the path but remains confident in eventual success.
But I sure know I will
Confidence in the ability to achieve despite uncertainties.
Sure know I will
Reiteration of the strong belief in one's capability to succeed.
It’s time to take the wheel and drive
Encouragement to take control and act decisively.
The way is clear for me ride
Expresses the readiness to move forward confidently.
I cannot wait
An eagerness to begin the journey without delay.
I stand up straight
Confidence and determination in facing challenges.
I lead the way
Willingness to lead and set an example for others.
It seems that every stone I throw it comes right back at me
Recognition that actions have consequences, sometimes reflecting back personally.
Maybe to teach me that the works outside is really inside of me
Suggests that external experiences mirror internal lessons.
Inside of me
Reiterates the belief that internal growth is crucial in external circumstances.
For every action a reaction that’s a certainty
Asserts the law of cause and effect in life's actions.
There ain’t no one out there to blame and live guilt free
Understanding that blaming others doesn't absolve personal responsibility.
And live guilt free
Reiteration that true freedom comes from accepting responsibility.
It’s time to take the wheel and drive
A repetition of the call to take control and move forward.
The way is clear for me ride
Reaffirms the clarity of the path ahead.
I cannot wait
A sense of urgency to embark on the journey.
I stand up straight
Confidence and strength in standing tall against obstacles.
I lead the way
Commitment to guiding and leading by example.
A generation running dry
Acknowledgment of a societal problem or crisis.
I can’t sit back and watch it die
Refusal to idly witness societal deterioration.
I cannot wait
Reiteration of the urgency to take action.
I lead the way
Commitment to leading and initiating change.
I lead the way
Further commitment to leading by example.
It all starts with me
Highlighting personal responsibility as the catalyst for change.
How can I judge if I am part of it
Raising a question about personal accountability in judging societal issues.
I gotta be the change I wanna see
Emphasizing the need to embody desired change personally.
It starts with me
Reiteration that individual action is the starting point for change.
It starts with me
Reaffirmation that change begins within oneself.
