When I lay my head at night
And I lay me down
I ask myself did I do right
The day just seemed so long
So many disappointments
Where did I go wrong
I had it all in the palm of my hand
But I let it go
I know I had to bear my soul
To reach what I was aiming for
I know I'm not the only one
I cannot lose control
I know I had to find a way
To look into my eyes and say
This is who you are today
Don't ever let it go
I look back at the times when I
Could've had it all
I had to be someone I'm not
Someone I didn't know
I just could not live a lie
I've got to be myself
I needed to be free and fly
At the cost of my dream
I know I had to bear my soul
To reach what I was aiming for
I know I'm not the only one
I cannot lose control
I know I had to find a way
To look into my eyes and say
This is who you are today
Don't ever let it go
I know I had to bear my soul
To reach what I was aiming for
I know I'm not the only one
I cannot lose control
I know I had to find a way
To look into my eyes and say
This is who you are today
Don't ever let it go
Don't ever let it go
