When I was standing here on the edge of a split decision
I got it in my head that I could jump before I learned to fly
It's a family tradition
Give it a shot I will
Push the rock up the hill

I finally know where I stand
Started to grow into a man
I wanna show I can
This is now and that was then
I'm glad I got a better plan when the moment of truth
Passes me by

Lady luck has not exactly been there
All the time
Sometimes you have to just decide to change direction of the ride
And start to climb, so tired of big mistakes
And all of the trouble they make

I finally know where I stand
Started to grow into a man
I wanna show I can
This is now and that was then
I'm glad I got a better plan when the moment of truth
The moment of truth
Passes me by

Hope I'm not a total idiot
I guess there's some things that I'll never get at all
But I knew what I was doing, you see
And my personal philosophy lost control and hit the wall
It's hard to put a finger on a feeling that just lingers on
A moment I can't recall

I finally know where I stand
Started to grow into a man
I wanna show I can
This is now and that was then, yeah

I finally know where I stand
Started to grow into a man
I wanna show I can
This is now and that was then
I'm glad I got a better plan when the moment of truth
The moment of truth
Passes me by
