Lyrics: Power was all I desired (I desired, was all I desired) But all that grew inside of me was the darkness I acquired When I began to fall, and I lost the path ahead That's when your friendship found me, and it lifted me instead Like a phoenix burning bright in the sky I'll show there's another side to me, you can't deny I may not know what the future holds, but hear me when I say That my past does not define me 'cause my past is not today Ambition is what I believed Would be the only way to set me free But when it disappeared, and I found myself alone That's when you came and got me, and it felt like I was home Like a phoenix burning bright in the sky I'll show there's another side to me, you can't deny I may not know what the future holds, but hear me when I say That my past does not define me 'cause my past is not today
