I hate the way the weight of your decisions weigh upon me
I won't carry them on my shoulders
My knees may buckle, but my resolve is strong
I am the future, and I'm here to prove you wrong
You are concerned with dragging me down
Everything in me won't let me drown
What you decide has impact on you forever
It will cave in on you forever
You can't ignore what surrounds you forever
What goes up must come down
It's simple physics you see, the laws of gravity
I'll stay above the water just to prove my persistence
Holding on to my desire to improve our existence
The remedy starts with me
It's the logic we all need
Take hold and accept it, if you want things to be different
I'm waiting impatiently while your skin turns thin
You can't ignore what surrounds you forever
Soon enough it will all cave in
Ideals built upon a weak base will slip away without a trace
Like a house that's made of sand being torn to the ground by the waves
I promise to always see things from a better perspective
One that won't block those who chose another direction
This promise to myself, I won't let it go
I'll stand up and take it all in
With open arms, I'll accept what we've been given
This promise to myself, I won't let it go
