I am the one who followed your path
Lead to an undesired destination
Supported your values, ignored mine
Lived your dreams, disconnected with mine
Days slipped into years that won’t be regained
Years slipped into a life I’m seeking to reclaim
No longer willing to be fooled

I am the one who is unearthing my past
Searching for answers to my questions
Digging for clues to set the path straight
Finding the courage to set life right
Values need volition I proclaim
Volition leads to actions for change
No longer willing to be fooled

I am the one charting my course
Heading into the realm of truth
Letting go of assumed correctness
Healing can replace forgetfulness
Remembering dreams
Manifests dreams
No longer willing to be fooled
No longer willing to be lead astray
No longer following your path
