Stride
I see different now*
As I view the rushing all around
But that's the breaks
I've taken in too much hate
But still I'll struggle
To remember what I've learned before
So I'll let that pass me by
And renew what is mine
I know I have the strength
To break away
'Cause I knowthe language
Everyone's speaking today
Who's to say what stays the same
Who's to say that I'm to blame
No one ever said
That I would stay the same
I fear the twist around
And I feel the wrong
That I have found
Too many times I've been disgraced
So I'll look to another place
But I never want to turn around
And see that face again
It's not embarrassment but somewhere
Down the road it's got to end
Research yourself research that place
But I don't know where to begin
I understand I think I've just seen the end
No one ever said
That I would feel no pain
That you would stay the same
That I would always change
Who's to say what stays the same
Not me
