Raised in a happy home, I got taken away
Goodbye happy home, I’ll see you another day
Mom and dad don’t cry, I’m still your little guy
I’ll grow into a man, next time you see me you won’t cry
I love you with my soul, I love you with my heart
I just lost control, that lost control made us depart
Be that as it may, I’ll return home more mature
I will love, learn and live, these are things I can assure
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ll do my best to love
Surreal and sensitive
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ll do my best to learn
Know what’s right from negative
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ll do my best to live
I’ll make this journey narrative
Habits, havoc, hell, I’m breaking out my shell
Not the best of me, but moments do compel
Lost my innocence, wouldn’t last for ever
I’d say wont relapse, but I should never say never
I’m still standing strong, strong as I can stand
But the weakness hits hard when no one can understand
I’m making my mistakes, probably will some more
But slates can be cleansed, stand in the rain and let it pour
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ll do my best to love
Surreal and sensitive
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ll do my best to learn
Know what’s right from negative
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ll do my best to live
I’ll make this journey narrative
Staring at the moon, wonder if you see it too
I’m coming home soon, coming home back to you
I feel like I have changed, let go of the past
Time has grown me up, time has gone by fast
Here I have been lost, even been depressed
But I’ve done what was needed, I can say that I progressed
Differences in the past, I was drifting from my dome
I’ve loved, lived and learned and now I can come home
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ve done my best to love
Surreal and sensitive
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ve done my best to learn
Know what’s right from negative
Love, learn and live
Maybe gain and give
I’ve done my best to live
I made this journey narrative
