I Am

I'm scared of growing up I'm scared of growing old I'm scared of falling short I'm scared of the unknown Oh, I'm burning on the edge But I know right where I stand I know the road ahead will make me who I am I am, I am, I am I am, I am, I am I am, I am, I am I was lost, out of hope, I was caving in Overcome by the waves, I was crashing in Took a chance on the other side of fear, I found I can make it out Even if I'm scared of growing up I'm scared of growing old I'm scared of falling short I'm scared of the unknown Oh, I'm burning on the edge But I know right where I stand I know the road ahead will make me who I am I am, I am, I am I am, I am, I am I am, I am, I am I am, I am, I am I am, I am, I am There was sticks, there were stones, there was barricades I was trapped in my mind, threw the key away They say this and that behind my back, not to my face They wanna see me break Even if I'm scared of growing up I'm scared of growing old I'm scared of falling short I'm scared of the unknown Oh, I'm burning on the edge But I know right where I stand I know the road ahead will make me who I am I am, I am, I am (whoo!)

This feeling Some nights, I never know, I never know But if I can fight this feeling I'll see silver and gold, silver and gold Will it ever pass?
