I-I been takin' my time, and followin' my... my intuition And I-I've got no concerns, 'cause every mistake I make is a lesson learned Fight with fire and you're bound to get burned Hesitate and someone's takin' your turn I-I've been takin' a ride, been breaking the ties that once defied me And now yeah, I start to realize, this life is sacred But the struggle makes it hard to breath Come along now, I can put your mind at ease Feel alone now, I could be your company And those who speak into your ear, they don't know everything (yeah, yeah) They criticize to hide their pain and suffering They save their money for a rainy day I'll be spending mine as soon as I get paid And when the rainy day comes They'll be the ones who pray for the days they wasted when they were young
