Today I stepped closer to my goal
To learn
Expand the limits of my mind
To enrich my soul
Fame and fortune
Every man's dream
But sometimes things are not
Exactly what they seem
As I get older
I seem to find the things
I longed for as a boy
Just are not the same
Now I'm a man
And I see things clear
I have found the strength
To conquer my fears
So now I look back
At the length of my life
And see things that haunt me
And things I would not do twice
