Man in the Mirror
Graham BLVD Lyrics

Growin' up you don't see the writing on the wall
As you grow up, you don't always recognize the clues and warnings that life throws at you

Passin' by, movin' straight ahead you knew it all
Many times when we feel in control and confident in our path, we miss out on alternate perspectives and opportunities for growth

But maybe sometime if you feel the pain, You'll find you're all alone everything has changed
At times, pain and hardship can serve as personal catalysts that open our eyes to the things we've missed, leaving us feeling isolated and disconnected from what we once knew

Play the game you know you can't quit until it's won
Sometimes our perseverance and unwavering drive is what brings us success

Soldier of only you can do what must be done
In many situations, the only person you can rely on and who is accountable is yourself; and to inch closer to your goals, one must take bold and difficult steps

You know, in some ways you're a lot like me
Despite our unique life experiences, circumstances, and differences, we share a common thread of struggle and determination to achieve our dreams

You're just a prisoner, and you're tryin' to break free
At times, we can feel trapped by our situations or expectations placed upon us, but our greatest challenge and triumph is breaking free from these limitations

I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky
There's a sense of renewal and optimism for the future that lies under the bright and unforgiving sun

I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher
I'll be where I can soar and reach new heights, always pushing further

Gonna be your man in motion
I'm going to be an active force driving change and growth

All I need is a pair of wheels
All I need is the right tools and resources to make things happen

Take me where the future's lying St. Elmo's fire
Lead me to where my destiny lies and the energy of my ambition burns bright

Burning up don't know just how far that I can go
Despite the risks and uncertainties, I'm willing to fully commit and see how far I can push myself

Soon be home only just a few miles down the road
There's a sense of comfort and familiarity waiting for me, just within reach

And I can make it, I know I can
I have the self-confidence and drive to overcome challenges and obstacles to reach my goals

You broke the boy in me, but you won't break the man
Despite the setbacks and pain I've experienced, they haven't weakened me beyond repair; I am stronger and more resilient than ever before

I can climb the highest mountain, cross the widest sea
There is no challenge too great or distance too far that can stop me from achieving my dreams

I can feel St. Elmo's fire burning in me, burning in me
I can feel the spark of my ambition and drive pushing me forward, always burning bright and hot

Just once in his life a man has his time
There is a special window of time when we have the opportunity to make our mark and achieve our dreams

And my time is now I'm comin' alive
It's my time to take action and pursue my dreams with everything I have

I can hear the music playin' I can see the banners fly
There is a sense of excitement and hope in the air, signaling something big is on the horizon

Feel like a vet again. I hope I ain't high
I feel seasoned and experienced in my pursuits, but I hope I'm not becoming overconfident or delusional

I can feel burning, uh uh inside of me
There is a fire and passion that is fueling me, driving me towards success and fulfillment
