Verse The past is not my friend he says he’s got it in for me He stopped me long ago from being who I wanna be I’ve struggled for so long by doing what the others said So I’ll just live my life but first I’m gonna rest my head So wake me up and let me know when the past has let me go So I can be the man I wanna be And I know it might take time but I know somewhere down the line They’re gonna see the good in me Verse All the crazy money had been bet that I’d succeed But it’s hard to beat the odds when you are up against your greed All the crazy faces wrote me off some time ago Except the crazy people that I’ve tried hard not to know So wake me up and let me know when the past has let me go So I can be the man I wanna be And I know it might take time but I know somewhere down the line They’re gonna see the good in me Instum x2 Bridge They all point the finger and they all laugh at me While sitting on their fortune of fools gold So unaware of what is seen by the likes of me I’m going to make sure that they’re told So wake me up and let me know when the past has let me go So I can be the man I wanna be And I know it might take time but I know somewhere down the line They’re gonna see the good in me So wake me up and let me know when the past has let me go I’ll be the man they’d said I’d never be So stop me sleeping when it’s time to wake these dreams of mine They’re gonna see the good in me, in me_________ Outro
