Shades Apart – Older Now

Push forward

Lay to rest old fears

Not long ago I was one of them

I’m changing

The more I’ve changed

The harder it is to face what I was before

It’s one man against one man

I’m gonna take a stand

Older now

Stand silent

The pain is there

The fear burns in my eyes

I won’t look back

There’s nothing left to hide

I’m different but I don’t need it written on my face

The real difference is inside

One man against one man

I gotta take a chance

No pity

No regret for what I left behind

Yesterday is dead

I am still alive

It’s clear now

What I fought so hard

I fought against myself

I’m not ashamed of what I am
