Measure of a Man

I wonder is there a part of me

Afraid to be the man I was born to be

All my life I've waited for

One shining chance to be

All I can and more

Am I the fool who dreams what might have been

Or here and now do I begin

There comes a time when the measure of a man is taken

There comes a time when at last you stand alone

Right or wrong wrong or right

There's a time to believe in yourself and fight

For all the dreams you won't betray

For all the novel words you'll say

For all those things much greater than

The measure of a man

Just once I'll let them know that I was here

Just once before I dissappear

There comes a time when the measure of a man is taken

And that time is now

I will turn and make my stand

Win or lose do or die

Nows the time to believe in myself and try

For all the dreams yet to be dreamed

For all the hopes to be redeemed

For all those things much greater than

The measure of a man

For all the things much greater than

The measure of a man
