The Things You Couldn’t Do

[Verse 1]
It's what I'm waiting for that matters
Not the things I have right now
Some say your dreams will make you higher
But mine, they keep me on the ground
You see, my fears are all I have
They're all that's keeping me alive
The fear of being like my dad
And never living a full life

[Chorus]
And let it waste away
When there's so much left to say
If you don't like your ways
Well then, you have to make a change
And after all I've done
And all that I've been through
I've changed my ways
I've done the things you could not do
I'm done with more than my own
And I will fight to make it through
They said it wouldn't happen, it couldn't happen
Now I've got a lot to prove

[Verse 2]
They say a memory last forever
Sometimes I wish that this weren't true
I can't forget how much you mattered
Or how much I thought of you
My love will never let you go
But we're nothing more alike
And I just want to let you know
I'll make much more of my one life

[Chorus]
And let it waste away
When there's so much left to say
If you don't like your ways
Well then, you have to make a change
And after all that I've done
And all that I've been through
I've changed my ways
I've done the things you could not do
I'm done with more than my own
And I will fight to make it through
They said it wouldn't happen, it couldn't happen
Now I've got a lot to prove

[Chorus]
And after all that I've done
And all that I've been through
I've changed my ways
I've done the things you could not do
I'm done with more than my own
And I will fight to make it through
They said it wouldn't happen, it couldn't happen
Now I've got a lot to prove
