lyrics

I always find myself asking the same damned thing
"What should I do with my life, and who should I be?"
Should I listen to the deans, the directors,
The teachers, or my mentors, or the little voice inside of me?
How will I know what's wrong?
How can I choose what's right?
This roadblock in front of me is ruining my life
Every day I hear of somebody breaking down
'Cause of countless obstacles beating them down
Who knew there'd be this many in the world
Who suffer the same conflictions [sic] as me?
How can we know what's wrong?
How can we choose what's right?
This roadblock in front of us is ruining our lives
Been bracing so long, I've lost my touch
Been letting the bad vibes keep me crutched
I'm gonna do it - who cares what they all say?
I'm taking this obstruction and blowing it away
I've had enough of wasted time
I'm leaving the fear behind
Taking in a future light
Nothing will win this fight
I've had enough of wasted time
I'm leaving the fear behind
Taking in a future light
I'm breaking through this roadblock tonight
