It's About Time

Started out friends 'cause we shared the same enemy
Thought that you were being such a great friend to me
It was us against the world and we had a blast
Always said if the cops came, we would be too fast
Never had a chance to test it though, all that's in the past
I decided I didn't want that life anymore
You decided I was a bad friend and walked out the door

The enemy is defeated now, so we've grown apart
Nothing left to say, but I'll keep you in my heart

It's about time I get independent and stand on my own two
Stop bein frustrated you'll never understand what it's like to be in my shoes
It's about time I go and do my own thing
Open up my eyes more, you never know what life will bring

You bring out the part of me that you most despise
Made me think I was the wrong one so I hid in a disguise
Well all the times you left me alone, I'd look up at the sky
Talking to God trying to figure out 'whats wrong with this guy?'
'cause In the back of my mind, knew it couldn't have been me
I gave us my all, always wanted you to be happy
Tried to make you understand, but all you did is call me crazy
Sometimes I wanna be like you, walk around like nothing can faze me

The end of us is so much different than the start
Nothing left to say now, But I'll keep you in my heart

It's about time I get independent and stand on my own two
Stop bein frustrated you'll never understand what it's like to be in my shoes
It's about time I go and do my own thing
Open up my eyes more, you never know what life will bring

All the mistakes I've made as I've gotten older
And all I got was the world on my shoulders
So I'm taking a load off and I'm starting to move on
All the chances life gave me, don't want them all gone
So I'm using this one for real and I got my head straight
Doing what I never thought I could, creating my own fate

And it's about time...
