WHO I AM
Words & Music by Nick Granato
Wasted too much time trying to figure it out
Complicated up the truth with doubt
Should have listened to my inner voice
Said I never really had a choice…
I heard what they all had to say, but I never felt the same
I couldn't share my point of view, in fear of what I'd lose
I questioned and I reasoned why, no place to run, no place to hide
(CHORUS)
And I traveled down this beaten path
Too scared to look, too lost to ask
And I did my best for being just a man
Well (no) I'm not the first, I won't be the last
To make my way and not turn back
On this journey only few can understand
Down this long and winding road… to who I am….
So many years in search of truth, through the pain I missed the proof
In hindsight I can clearly see, the way it was supposed to be
Broken hearts and sleepless nights, wasn't what I had in mind,
But I knew deep down in time, all the wrongs would turn out right
(CHORUS)
(BRIDGE)
Some disguised as friends, but really demons
Armed with their smiles and hidden reasons
Through all the trials and all the treasons
I heard wisdom from my past
Saying…hold on, this too shall pass…..
(CHORUS)
No I'm not the first, I won't be the last
To make my way and not turn back
On this journey only few can understand
Down this long and winding road… down this long and winding road…
To who I am…. To who I am… It's who I am…
