Lyrics

Opened the diary of my life and saw the truth
Never thought I?d ever say that I was wrong
Flicked through the pages of my wasted youth
The only one who couldn?t read it all along

But now it?s clear I wonder where the years have gone
Did I really leave it all behind
Did I throw my chance away, how did I ever go so wrong
It seems I?m on fast forward not rewind

Chorus;
So I?m gonna rise, answer my call
I?m gonna stand up on my own once and for all
Just wanna be true to me
Like a phoenix from the fire I will be free

Thought education was to be avoided at all cost
Didn?t think that there was any point at all
But looking back from here, I can see what I have lost
Coz there was nothing there to catch me when I fall

Chorus; . . . .

Like a phoenix from the fire I will be free. . . .

Go with the winds of change and get my life on track
And when I do well I ain?t ever coming back
Can?t fight the ageing sands of time
A wasted youth feels like a crime
Just wanna say in my own way
That I will start a brand new day

Just wanna be true to me
Like a phoenix from the fire I will be free
Like a phoenix from the fire I will be free.
