LYRICS:
I feel a surge of excitement.
I feel my heart start to swell.
I want to say some thing different.
I’ve got a new story to tell.
This place may seem unfamiliar.
I might feel strange in my skin.
But I am writing a chapter,
And this is how chapters begin.
I never expected the journey I’ve taken.
I thought that by this point my path would be clear.
Yet every decision reversed my direction.
I’ve made lots of choices;
They all led me here.
This is the me of the moment.
You get the me of the moment.
Sometimes you just get distracted.
You let your dreams go astray.
I made some stupid decisions.
I let some jerks get in my way.
But through the doors that were opened,
I met my personal best.
I’ve landed here in your presence,
And look at how much I am blessed!
What we know when we’re small
Is limited and often wrong.
How we grow through it all
Determines how we sing our song!
I never expected the journey I’ve taken.
I had some disasters. I made some mistakes.
Yet every decision reversed my direction.
I’ve made lots of choices,
‘Cuz that’s what it takes
To be the me of the moment.
This is the me of the moment.
Sometimes it’s hard getting started.
But life explodes once you’ve started.
And I am just getting started!
