"High Roads & Stepping Stones" lyrics

This is not the day that I call it quits. It's just another chapter
A slap on the wrist. Who thought it'd come to this?
One day you'll wake up and choke on your fucking words
Never forget this moment
Life is a story you'll never read, never read twice

I will not sit back and let this ruin my life
We've been here before and I will not forget
The way you are
The way you were and the day you set me back
There's a reason why there's more than you can see
And in the end its clear you're afraid of me

A man unwilling to fight for what he deserves, he deserves
Since the moment I was told I wouldn't get anywhere
I vowed to make myself more valuable everywhere
And dream so big I wake up dreaming
Thought I had it all. I thought I had it all

This is not the day that I call it quits
It's just another chapter
I don't get what you don't understand about this
Losing everything made life unbecoming
All my hard work done for nothing, done for nothing

We've been here before and I will not forget
The way you are
The way you were, and the day you set me back
There's a reason why there's more than you can see
And in the end its clear you're afraid of me

Now when I look back, and if it wasn't for
That I'd be there right next to you dead in my tracks
Dead in my tracks
