Age Ahead

Hello my old self
You became someone else
Than the person I thought you'd be
And the life you thought you'd lead

It's been ten long years
Since we've begun, though we've yet to face our fears
I almost forgot you
Can't seem to recall all the things I knew

I'm here with you

Looking in a one way mirror
I don't see what you see but I sure can hear
So much promises in your thoughts
Knowing we will overcome the fights we fought

And you need to know it won't work out in the end
But the letting go, it helps us start again
You need to be advised to let yourself feel
'Cause that's the fire to stoke to make something real

I'm here with you

Ten years ago
There's so much that you didn't know
I know you hated when they said
That you have no value 'til you age ahead

So age ahead

Get out of bed; wake the dead
Don't be mislead; just cut the thread
To things unsaid; signs misread
Times we bled; were in your head

So age ahead, age ahead
I'm here with you
