Not a day goes by that I don't wish I could take back what I did. Sure, I was desperate – like a lot of people back then – but that don't change what I did.
Your choice is not about going back to the way things were. Your choice is about hiding, or about going right to the heart of the thing that scares you.
My mom told me once that when you're afraid of something, what you want more than anything else is to make it go away. You want your life back to the way it was before you found out that there was something to be afraid of. You want to build a high wall and live your old life behind it. But nothing ever stays the same. That's not your old life at all. That's your new life with a wall around it.
I don't want to wake up one day And find out it's too late To do all the things I want to do So I'm gonna pack up my bags I'm never coming back 'Cause the years are passing by And I've wasted all my time.
Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening new doors and doing new things, because we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
Don't ever let anybody hold you back. I don't care how strong they are or how tough they think they are. You look them straight in the eye and you say: "I'm better than you. I'm stronger than you. And I'm going to win."
All of us have in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and, therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea - whether it is to sail or to watch it - we are going back from whence we came.
You ever read the Bible? I read it one time. I was eight years old. My daddy had just got hisself killed over a shot of whisky and my mama said we were going back East to start over. So, she gave me a Bible, sat me down at the train station, told me to read it. She was gonna get our tickets. Well, I did what she said. I read das Bible from cover to cover. Took me three days. She never came back.
If you look back in history It's a common double standard of society The guy gets all the glory the more he can score While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
Tell me why do I feel this way? All my life I was standing on the borderline Too many bridges burned Too many lies I've heard I had a life but I can't go back I can't do that, it will never be the same again And I know I don't Have any time to burn
