lyrics

It’s almost to the time I’ve been waiting for all my life
I’ve known since I was one I’d get it right
When the pathway isn’t clear you gotta persevere
And keep a thousand road blocks in the mirror
 
Take it slow but don’t wait
It won’t come down to fate
 
So I’ll take it and I’ll win it
If it’s paused then I’ll begin it
I’ll mold it and I’ll spin it
I’ll push it to the limit
I’ll close it in a locket
And hide it in my pocket
Then spring up like a rocket and nail the jump
 
They tried to count me out, tried to fill my head with doubt
Didn’t think I’d have the guts to pull it out
But I won’t be so deterred; I’ll have the final word
Cause the story can’t be done till I’ve been heard
 
Tear it all to pieces
And cast them up in light
Then wash away the fire
And see what’s left behind
I’m gonna blow their fucking minds
Now it’s almost time

To take it and to win it
If it’s paused then I’ll begin it
I’ll mold it and I’ll spin it
I’ll push it to the limit
I’ll close it in a locket
And hide it in my pocket
Then spring up like a rocket and nail the jump
I’ll nail the jump
