I may walk slow but Iâll never walk backwards
Be honest with yourself
You never expected much from me
But how could I blame you
How could you have faith in me
I never had faith in myself
The times have changed
I wonât let this get in the way
No, not anymore
Itâs not the man I am
I may walk slowly but Iâll never walk backwards
Progress is not how much you know
Itâs how much of what youâve learned has changed you
Weâre all not the same
Everything that Iâve done to get to this point wonât be forgotten
From the debts that Iâve paid
And the scars that Iâve made
With my legacy laid
I will never die
What makes you think youâve already won
I donât go down so easily
Despite what you may think this might not end so peacefully
I'll take the hand that Iâve been dealt
And with everything that I've got, I'll persevere
I may walk slowly but Iâll never walk backwards
Progress is not how much you know
Itâs how much of what youâve learned has changed you
Weâre all not the same
Everything that Iâve done to get to this point wonât be forgotten
From the debts that Iâve paid
And the scars that Iâve made
With my legacy laid
I will never die
I'll strive forward
Until my dying breath
I'll never stop
Until I've reached the end
I may walk slow but Iâll never walk backwards
This is all I am
I may walk slowly but Iâll never walk backwards
Progress is not how much you know
Itâs how much of what youâve learned has changed you
Weâre all not the same
Everything that Iâve done to get to this point wonât be forgotten
From the debts that Iâve paid
And the scars that Iâve made
With my legacy laid
I will never die
