    What It Was

    (V-1)
    I’m afraid I’m becoming the man my father was
    The smoking and drinking, sometimes the drugs
    Days that roll on and on, Without end
    One more look in the mirror, where have I been
    That’s what my father was, not what my father was

    (V-3)
    I’m afraid my life’s becoming what I thought it was
    I’ve always got tomorrow to get myself done
    I’m trying to warm a heart that’s grown so cold
    I look in the mirror and don’t know where to go
    that’s what my life was, not what my life was

    (Chorus)
    Cause day to day things weren’t that bad
    I really could complain, But I really can’t
    There’s always gonna be something there to blame
    But if I do, I’ll never learn anything
    So I take what I can and just move on,
    Leave it in a song….

    (V-3)
    I’m afraid the world’s becoming the world I thought it was
    Long on fear and hate, short on love
    But that rear view mirror is just a dream
    If I’m gonna get what I need it can’t mean anything
    That’s what this world’s become, not what this worlds become
