There's got to be a first time, well everything starts that way

And it can come when you least expect it - a lifetime starts in a day

You know that I won't hesitate and I won't shy away

And when all is said and done I will survive this trial run

Initiation (the first time), Initiation (the first time)



There's got to be a first time that's what the wise men say

And they should know, they carved the roads on which we tread every day

You know that I won't compromise, and I won't shy away

And when all is said and done I will survive this trial run

Initiation (the first time), Initiation (the first time)

Initiation, the wheels will turn. Initiation, from all of this I'll learn



I hear the bells a-ringing, I hear the toll of change,

Cause there's got to be a first time darling, well everything starts that way

You know that I won't hesitate and I won't shy away

And when all is said and done I will survive this trial run

Initiation (the first time), Initiation (the first time)

Initiation, the wheels will turn. Initiation, from all of this I'll learn

Initiation, oh won't you hear my plea. initiation takes the best of me

This is my initiation
