Within the Ruins - Oath

A wise man once told me
I reminded him of himself when he was young
He saw the respect in my eyes and said
"Stop at nothing and I will see you again one day"
I have stood where you are standing
I have thought what you are thinking
Now I stand before you
Sharing my story
There is nothing wrong
With chasing a dream
There is nothing wrong
With chasing your dream
These words might be simple
But they will change your life
You will gain everything
And regret nothing, regret nothing
Remember how you got here
Something no one can take from you
Experiences to last a life time
And no one can take them from you, take them from you
Just live and don't look back
If it seems that you have failed
Dust yourself off
And wipe the sweat from your head
Set the stage
Scrape my bones from the pavement
Light the fuse and run
We're all in danger
The clock is ticking and our time will soon expire
This road can kill you but it's worth every mile
I'm never leaving here
I'm never coming home
