Inner Peace Lyrics

This ain't how I thought this would go

Things don't always go as planned

But everyday I wake up

And I'm given another chance

So it's going as well as it can

But still, things are moving too slow

I wish I could make my dreams come true

It's easy to hope that one day they will

But it's hard to know just what to do

What to do, in spite of the fact

That everything's against me

Everything is missing from my history

It all points to the penitentiary

Guess I've got to unravel the mystery

Yeah

I've been searching for something

Something that isn't free

Something that can't be seen

I'm searching for inner peace

And just like that

I'm back in the game

Now I can't look at things the same

I used to think

What is there to gain?

Now I think

In what way can I change?

And what's at stake

To be acclaimed

And what's the risk

It's yours to claim

But I'm on the fence

Since all it takes

Is just one miss

Just one mistake

So I go all out

I won't take the blame

And it's my life

It's mine to lay

Lay it down

If that's the price I pay

To keep my soul

From the grave

But I might go down

As one of the greats

So when you say my name

Don't take it in vain

Make the sacrifice

And give all the praise

Practice inner peace

I'm good either way

I've been searching for something

Something that isn't free

Something that can't be seen

I'm searching for inner peace
