I was in - I led with grace, with head held high, a captivating charm, authority I was pure - well I stood for truth when all was lost, if only for the slim minority I was change - dissenting views, dissident sights, no room for fair, no mediocrity I was good - you'd look to me to right the world outside and I'd deliver Back in the day my words were strong and real Back in the day my trails were blazed in steel Back in the day I could see - my visionary views were sought, progressive outlooks on society I could feel - my gut was solid, cold as stone, a consequence of loyal piety I could change - adapt and compromise, evolve - laugh in the face of your anxieties My memory's not what it used to be, but hon' it drives my ego Back in the day my words were strong and real Back in the day my trails were blazed in steel Back in the day Too late, I've sealed my own fate. Can sheer denial bring this beast back home? Can I stay true, straight, but yield my whole faith? Defy everything I've ever known? Like a fad, I'll wake one day to find my limelight faded low - subdued sobriety Like a craze, I'll watch my withered seams and ties grow indistinct, freed of variety Like a man, the lines run deep, now drawn and frail, a life soon lost unto antiquity Like a state, immortal words, forgotten wisdoms eulogized and clichéing Back in the day my words were strong and real Back in the day my trails were blazed in steel Back in the day my words were strong and real Back in the day my trails were blazed in steel Back in the day
