I'm on my way now   I did it by myself   I looked down every hall and avenue and I did it without help   I'm in a place now where I can be myself   I'm gonna do what I want and say what I think and never be let down      held back and pushing through   looking for a better view   this is what I'm gonna do   when I get through      I understand how I made it through this far   I took the backseat to and let them through and I waited for the start   I'm gonna find out how I can be a part   of everything I'm not but wished I was   I'm gonna fill this empty heart      held back and pushing through   looking for a better view   this is what I'm gonna do   when I get through      and I wonder when it's gonna turn around      standing on this cloud the air is clear up here   I'm never going back from where I came I found what I want it's right here      held back and pushing through   looking for a better view   this is what I'm gonna do   when I get through      and I wonder when it's gonna turn around      I'm waiting, I'm craving, I'm saving   and now it's time I'm gonna stand up gonna shine      and I wonder when it's gonna turn around
