My Past is Not Today lyrics

[Verse 1]
Power was all I desired (I desired, I desired)
But all that grew inside 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
