Taking Back My Fate

[Verse] In the heartland where I'm born and raised I found wisdom through trials Through endless days Like a wounded soul With a heavy load I walked the path Where lessons unfold [Verse] In the valleys of my mistakes I learned With every stumble A page was turned Through the sorrow Pain And broken dreams I found the strength to search for brighter seams [Chorus] Through the waves! Through the Wars! We wade through the storms. Letting life just take its course. I won't be a victim of the rage. I'm taking back my fate [Verse 3] So when you're feeling depressed I know you did your best. (I know I sure as hell didnt) Don't blame me for my mistakes My heart is torn and tattered by this life's test. Maybe I'm not just stressed. (Ooh) [Chorus] Through the waves! Through the Wars! We wade through the storms. Letting life just take its course. I won't be a victim of the rage. I'm taking back my fate! (Taking back my fate) [Music softens] [Verse 4] Don't tell me what I went through Wasn't worth it in the end Cause I came out on top Don't ask me about what comes next Just know that I don't plan to stop. [Beat picks back up] [Chorus] Through the waves! Through the Wars! We wade through the storms. Letting life just take its course. I won't be a victim of the rage. I'm taking back my fate (My fate) (My fate) (My fate) I'm taking back my fate! [Song finishes]
