Lessons in Manhood - Foreknown

There is a tragedy at hand, where a boy becomes a man

A loss of innocense, a loss of the things we hold dear

The knowledge of how the world turns

I would give it all away to see like a child again

And to remember the things that make me happy in life again

There’s a breath of apathy that lives in every

Passing moment to never feel that joy again tars me apart

I never knew and I never wanted to care

Growing old was once freedom and now it tears me down

Please lord get me out of here and let me see the world

Let me know what life really is

Guide me up the steps of what you want in me

I’ll try my hardest and I’ll try to be the one

To never let you down

With all I have I’ll never let you down
