I Think I Found Myself
Discovering Inner Truth: "I Think I Found Myself" by Eric Carmen
Lyrics
It's been a long time comin'
Acknowledging a long-awaited moment
But I think I've got it figured out
Feeling confident about understanding something
Sometimes the easiest things are still
Simple things can be challenging to comprehend
The hardest ones to learn about
The most straightforward things can be difficult to learn
Well I was strugglin' so hard for my freedom
Struggling intensely for freedom
And it was there all the time
Realizing that freedom was present all along
But I just couldn't see it
Being unable to perceive the available freedom
I think I found myself
Feeling like personal identity has been found
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
Belief in discovering what was sought
I think I found myself
Reiterating the discovery of self
(Don't you know)
Emphasizing the certainty of finding what's sought
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
Reaffirming the discovery of what was sought
Well I got sidetracked somewhere
Getting distracted from a path
Though I really can't recall just when
Uncertain about when the distraction occurred
I lost my inspiration
Losing inspiration
And I couldn't get it back again
Being unable to regain lost inspiration
(No)
Emphatic denial of accepting something
I trusted everyone else so completely
Having complete trust in others
Well I was deaf, dumb and blind
Metaphorically deaf, dumb, and blind to certain truths
But I'll be damned if I'll let 'em defeat me
Determined not to be defeated by others' actions
I think I found myself
Confidently asserting self-discovery
(Don't you know)
Reiterating the confidence in finding what was sought
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
Reiterating the certainty of discovering self
I think I found myself
Restating the confidence in finding what was sought
(Don't you know)
Reiterating the certainty of discovering self
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
Reiterating the confidence in finding what was sought
I'm tired of tricks and politics
Tired of deceit and manipulation in dealings
And futures burning bright
Feeling urgency and intensity about future prospects
I'm on the line and out of time
Feeling pressure and limited time
For once in my life
Finally choosing what's believed to be right
I'm gonna do what I think is right
Decisiveness in making a righteous choice
I think I found myself
Confidently asserting self-discovery
(Don't you know)
Reiterating the confidence in finding what was sought
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
Reiterating the certainty of discovering self
I think I found myself
Restating the confidence in finding what was sought
I think I found what I'm lookin' for
Reiterating the certainty of discovering self
