Yesterday’s gone far away
Tomorrow might be too late
Destiny is here to stay
Like it, leave it anyway
I said, O! my good Lord
Please hear me say *
You see the fire in my eye
Its just an illusion
You haven’t seen me cry
If you think I’m strong
Heck no I am not
I said, O! my good Lord
Its just a feeling l’ve got *
Sometimes I know I’m doing wrong
Times like these my feeling down
Wish you would show me
Just where I belong
I said, O! my good Lord
‘ve I said something wrong *
You, know, history is easy to read
You been through this
But still I plead
Destiny is a stupid place
We all are heading
Without any pace
O! my Lord, don’t you see
I would rather write my own destiny*
I have had my ups
I’ve had my downs
There’ve been times
I’ve written songs
They had no meaning
No songs at all
O! now won’t you hear me say*
Your halo provides me
With the warmth
The light it throws, all along
The alleys are too dark for me
I see hell
I don’t see me
Please, please don’t you hear me say
I’ll find my own way
