One Last Chance

I need another chance
I need one last chance
Ive looked at myself
I dont like what I see
I need another chance
To try to do it right
I can do it right
If I have the strength
If I keep my will
If I direct my body
I can do it right
I need another chance
Because I looked at myself
And Im goin wrong
But I can do it right
You can show me how
Like you did before
When I really needed to do it right
I was in a fix before
I was really in trouble
It was sharp and quick
It took me by surprise
And you helped me then
It was a matter of time
But this time its different
Its been a growing thing
It wasnt sharp and quick
No no no no
It didnt take me by surprise
It came along slow and soft
It crept and I saw it all along the way
It came on bit by bit
And I knew it all along
The only difference is now
Its gone too far
Its gone too far
It almost seems irreversible
I need another chance
I wanna do it right
Cause when I looked at myself
It was going all wrong
Ive got to change my style
Ive got to do something different
Ive got to be in my world
Ive got to see what I see
Ive got to hear what I hear
Ive got to move through time
With me on my mind
You can forget the rest
Because if I think about it Im gonna lose myself
And itll be too late
Dont let it be too late now
Dont let it be too late now
I need another chance
Cause its gone too far
I hope its not irreversible
Let me stem the tide
Let me reverse this thing
Let me put my hand up and say Stop
Even Turn around, go back where you came
Give me another chance
Because I can do it right
I can do it right
Ive got to do it right
Because if I dont Im gone
Im real gone
And I dont want to lose
All of my control
I wanna be the driver
The one ridin in the trunk
With the rope around my feet and my hand
And a gag in my mouth
Dont wanna be kidnapped by
What? Who? Where?
I wanna move through time
With me on my mind
I wanna be the driver
I wanna say to my selves,
Move like you should, assemble yourselves
and do right for this body, this mind,
this soul, this spirit, this being
I wanna live right
I wanna live so right
I dont wanna go wrong
And I see myself goin wrong
So Ive got to stop
Ive got to summon my powers
Ive got to drop off all the dead and dying
I got to cauterize my wounds
I got to stem the tide of the bad
I got to say
Stop, turn around
Go back to from where you came
I wanna be right, you bad go back
Go back to from where you came
Bad bad, go back, bad bad, go back
I wanna be right
I wanna be right
I wanna control my body my soul my mind my spirit
I wanna be in charge
I wanna say its like this
I wanna say its like that
I dont wanna be told
Dont wanna be told
You gotta be like that
You gotta be like this
Cause it dont help none
I know why I know where I know how
I know when I wanna be
I know what I wanna be
I know how I wanna be
I know when I wanna be
I know where I wanna be
I wanna be right in my own mind
If I cant be right
Im gonna be gone
I dont wanna be gone
I just wanna be, me, here, now
Give me another chance
Give one more chance
And let me do right
Once and for all
All time eternally
I wanna be right eternally
I dont have to be alone
I can be alone
I dont have to be alone
But I can be alone
But I dont have to be alone
It doesnt matter
Right is right
It comes from outside, not from the outside
I wanna be right from the inside out
I want you to see
I want them to see
I want to be right for everyone to see
I wanna be right
For me, for you, for them, for the elements
For space, for time
Please give me another chance
Dont let it be gone
Dont it be the end of being right
I saw myself right
I let it go, give it back
Give me another chance, give it back
I let it go, give it back
Give me another chance
I wanna live right
I wanna live right
I wanna be in charge of my life
My death, my eternity
I wanna be right
And Ill do anything
I gotta summon my powers
I gotta be myself
I gotta have my will
I gotta be myself
I gotta get my strength
I gotta conquer these foes
I gotta beat up on bad
I gotta elevate the good
Its so easy to see
Bad and good, I can see
I can see whats bad and good
I can look I can tell I can judge
I can point my finger
And say Thats bad, thats good
And deep inside I know
I cant be wrong
If Im right, give me another chance
I wanna be right
I wanna be right
I wanna be right
Give me another chance
Give me another chance
Give me another chance
Cause I looked at myself
And I saw bad
I looked at myself and I said
Oh, is it too late?
Is it too late?
Oh, please dont let it be too late
Dont let it be too late
Help me reverse this trend
Help me stem this tide
Help me put my hand down and say
Stop, turn around,
Go back to from where you came
Let me take the good
Let me put it in myself
Let me digest the good
Let me emanate the good
Let me be in control
Dont let this sickness take me over
Dont let these things get me down
Dont let these things take effect
Dont let em change me
And I dont mind if I change
But let it be good
Let me change to the good
Every time I change
Every second I move
Every time
I turn around
Kill the bad, kill em
Kill the bad
Kill the bad
Generate the good in me
Kill the bad things I got inside me
Let them die
They dont deserve, let em die
Just kill em
It aint like killin no
Its annihilation, extermination,
Elimination elimination
Eliminate the bad
Cast the bad
Eliminate the bad
I want to be good
I wanna be right
Theres only one judge of that
I know I wanna be right
I gotta see myself right
I got to see myself
If Im not right, why not?
Cause I did bad
Yeah, I did bad
And Ill tell you this
Bad is different for everyone that is different
And thats everyone and everything
So your bads not my bad
But I got bad and you bad
Unless I dont know you like I know me
But I know me, and I got bad, and I got wrong
And I dont like it
And I want to eliminate it
I want it gone before Im gone
I want bad to be gone before Im gone
I dont want to be gone
I want bad to be gone so I can be
I dont be right
I wanna be right
Give me another chance
Give me another chance
I wont let you down, not this time
Three strikes and youre out
And I had one
And I hit a home run
But I stopped after first base
And hey, they,
They pushed me, they
They pushed and pulled
But they couldnt pull me any farther than that
Must of been fear
I think it was fear
Cause I had it made
I had the whole home run
But I missed it
Second time up
I hardly even swung
I didnt even try
I quit trying
I knew what I should be doin
Every once in a while
Id touch my little toe in the water
But I never did jump in
I never did dive in to that water
And thats what I know I gotta do now
Cause if I dont do it now Im gone
Because wrong is at the point
Its at the point of smothering me
Smoldering me, drowning me,
Putting me out
And I need to burn my flame
I need to ignite
I need to spark
I need to beam
I need to shine my light
Give me another chance to shine my light
I dont want to go down
I dont have to go down
Not if I got some will
And I got some power
And I got some strength
And I got some control
And Im the driver
And Im in charge
I can do it
I can do it
Hey, I got to do it
If I dont do it, Im done
Its either do or be done
Im not over yet
Im not over
Im never gonna be over
Im never gonna end
I shall not end
Im not gonna be gone
Im gonna be forever
Eternally I shall be
And Im not saying
That I always was
Im saying I shall always be
And I make this decision now
I shall be
I want to do right
And there is no eye in this universe
That can tell me
What right is, because I know what right is
And I know what wrong is
By this time I know
Give me another chance
Give me another chance
I surely need your help
I surely need your help
To conquer death
To conquer evil
To conquer bad
I wanna be in charge
I wanna control my destiny
I wanna live up to my standards
I know it can be done
It came sharp and quick
And you helped me
And I conquered all
Now its come slow and soft
And I need your help
For the last time
Cause if its not this time
I believe its never
And I cant face that
I dont have to face that
I demand your assistance
It only takes one word
And that word is yes
Give me your yes
And Ill give you mine
I gave you mine
I forgot it, and Im sorry
But you hit me hard
