I was raised in what's right,

But I strayed from the light;

I fell into things that were wrong.

The things that were good

Did what they could,

But I fell away before long.

I thought it was cool,

So I broke every rule,

And did things I shouldn't have done.

I didn't care much,

I had no use for such;

I thought what was wrong seemed like fun.

Now I regret

And I try to forget,

But my guilt and shame won't remain hid.

I try to improve

But no matter how far I move,

It can't take back what I did.

Now I have changed,

My life is rearragned;

I escaped from the bad somehow.

I go there no more,

I have good things in store;

I am a new person now.
