Looking inside me I realize, I don't like what I see Aware of my pride It's no wonder why I'm not what I should be
Through it all There's one thing that I have found There's no instant crown So I remind myself...
It takes time Can't change overnight It's gonna take some time 'til you're forever changed... It takes time To let the old man die Wave yourself goodbye and give your whole life away
The heart is deceitful Desperately wicked no one can know Put in the fire It keeps getting purer Purer than gold
He does it all I don't have to strive Now I realize I can't change myself
It takes time Can't change overnight It's gonna take some time 'til you're forever changed... It takes time To let the old man die Wave yourself goodbye and give your whole life away
The butterfly is transformed overnight But you and I are being changed day by day
