The Lion

Verse
Once upon a time I was young, full of fire and flame
Ran through the fields, I was wild, a lion without a name
But as the years went by, I grew tired, and my spirit slowed
I took a long look back, and all my memories overflowed

Chorus
But then I remembered the roar, the passion I once had
The lion of my youth, not dead, just sleeping, undisturbed
And as I breathed in deep, I felt a fire reignite
The long look back, became a journey to my own delight

Verse
I thought my spirit was lost, my days as a lion done
But as I stared into my past, I saw the fire still burns
I felt the power return, the strength I thought was gone
And I knew that I could still run, still chase the setting sun

Chorus
And then I remembered the roar, the passion I once had
The lion of my youth, not dead, just sleeping, undisturbed
And as I breathed in deep, I felt a fire reignite
The long look back, became a journey to my own delight

Bridge
I'm not old, I'm just experienced, still got a lot to give
And as I stand here now, I can say, I've got so much to live

Chorus
And now I remember the roar, the passion I once had
The lion of my youth, not dead, just sleeping, undisturbed
And as I breathed in deep, I felt a fire reignite
The long look back, became a journey to my own delight

Outro
So let the fire burn bright, let the lion roar again
I'm ready to take flight, and live my life to the end
