I've hurt people in my life,
I've done bad things,
but everyone has something to blame.
I wish I could take it all back,
and do right by everyone and reverse the pain I have caused.
That's not how this works though,
we move on and learn from our mistakes.

We are what we do, no matter what is truly in our hearts.
We can dwell on the past, we can dwell on the future, but all that matters is now.
And what we do now.

Time to move on, stop looking back.
The time is now, to make your move.
Everybody is looking at you.
Do what's right, do what is good,
but most importantly do what you should.
Do what you should that will better yourself.
Do what you should to help everyone else.
Do what you should despite the context,
do what you should despite the fear.
What's in your heart counts more than you know,
all that you need to do is let it show.
So don't look back at what you've done,
move on and show everyone who you have truly become.
