Headstrong

As I look back now it's exactly how you said
 But it made no difference to the life that I led
 The route that I took may mean that I learnt hard
 But you only get one chance to make things play the way you're dreamin' of
 I didn't know then
 but then what the fuck is life for
 I still regret it,
 but now I strong than before
 And this strength will open up new doors
 See things I never saw before
 I never claim I'm the blessed
 I have faith in myself and belief in this message
 No I never claim I'm the blessed
 I have belief in my strengths and respect for my weakness
 Cos he who can learn to respect and seek to understand
 Can overcome or learn to play another hand
 Yes he who can learn to respect and seek to understand
 Can look back and say
 Now I'm stronger than before
 My strength will open up new doors
 See things I never saw before
 I stand now focused again
 It takes time to reach a peace within
 I stand now focused again
 It takes time to reach your peace within
 You see to try but you never ask the question why
 Too concerned with your need for an alibi
 It's only true cos you never find your reason why
 Too concerned with your alibi
