Independence

It took some time
But now i can see my faults
And i've made up my mind now
See how the water falls
It's so personal
That i could not come to terms wiht
The choices that i've made
Well, it seems i'm here to stay...
The waves are strong
But they won't pull me down
I know right from wrong
And that's the strength i've found
It's been a while
But i think i've got it now
The waves are strong but they won't pull me
Down
Down on myself for doing things
I said i'd never do, well
I've made mistakes, yeah
All part of growing up its true
We see eye to eye
But there was no way for me to know
Until i tried i've seen the lies
I know which way to go
Foget what i've learned lear to forget
I never wanted this
I'm happy with the way it was
With success that i have earned comes hatred
I never wanted this
I really never wanted this
Down
The waves are strong
But they won't pull me down
I know right from wrong
And that's the strength i've found
It's been a while
But i think i've got it now
The waves are strong but they won't pull me
Down
