When one door closes another one opens, Oh how true that can be. When one life ends another one begins, How long will it take you to see? I am not the first nor the last , To travel across the sea. Not the first to open a book. Not even the first to be. But when all is said and done , who am I to me? Am I the monster figure I once was The father that everyone loved Am I the scholar I strive to be Who am I to me? Am I the killer Or am I the killed Am I the feeler Or am I the feeled? Did I let those close to me die Or did I try to give them life? Who am I to me? I am what ever I make myself One day I can be who I want to be A good father and husband Or a low life good for nothin Will I be the leader of the free world Or a worker at sea world Will my dominance be masked Or will defeating me be the ultimate task Only sacrifices will help me see Who I am to me

Who I Am
When one door closes another one opens, Oh how true that can be. When one life ends another one begins, How long will it take you to see? I am not the first nor the last , To travel across the sea. Not the first to open a book. Not even the first to be. But when all is said and done , who am I to me? Am I the monster figure I once was The father that everyone loved Am I the scholar I strive to be Who am I to me? Am I the killer Or am I the killed Am I the feeler Or am I the feeled? Did I let those close to me die Or did I try to give them life? Who am I to me? I am what ever I make myself One day I can be who I want to be A good father and husband Or a low life good for nothin Will I be the leader of the free world Or a worker at sea world Will my dominance be masked Or will defeating me be the ultimate task Only sacrifices will help me see Who I am to me
