Up Front - Left behind Lyrics

can't you get it through your head
I don't like the way things used to be
won't you ever understand
the way I was just wasn't for me

I really wish that you would try
to understand my reasons why
I changed for the better, I'm proud to say
goodbye to what I threw away

times have changed and so have I
I've learned a lot, my knowledge grew
what held me back I left behind
if you can't accept it then I'll leave you too

when I stopped I looked around
I left behind what was keeping me down

now I can see things clear
because I learn from all the words I hear
break free from what is in your way
make a change - it's not so hard to break away
