Right Now

Right Now

I got a photograph of Monday
Faded out, it lost the sun
I got a promise from tomorrow
That's a race I never won
I been tangled in the could-be's
Haunted by the should-have-beens
But the clock up on the wall keeps lying
It won't let me live again

I can't change the rain that already fell
I can't outrun the ringing bell
I been reaching past my own two hands
Till I forgot where I stand

So I'm letting go of yesterday
I won't ask tomorrow to stay
'Cause the only fight I'm gonna win
Starts the second that the light gets in
Right here, right now
This is my crown
I can't stop time, I can't turn back
But I own this moment and that's a fact
Right now

They try to sell regret by the hour
Make you fear the setting sun
But the only power they ever had
Was the power to make you run
Now I'm still inside the chaos
Breathing like a live wire burns
Yesterday's a ghost, tomorrow's smoke
Tonight is where it turns

I can't change the rain that already fell
I can't outrun the ringing bell
I been looking for another door
But I ain't waiting anymore

So I'm letting go of yesterday
I won't ask tomorrow to stay
'Cause the only fight I'm gonna win
Starts the second that the light gets in
Right here, right now
This is my crown
I can't stop time, I can't turn back
But I own this moment and that's a fact
Right now

Can't rewind the tape
Can't skip to the end
All I got is this heartbeat
All I got is this breath
Turn it up
Now

Letting go of yesterday
Won't ask tomorrow to stay
All I know is the light gets in
That's the moment I begin
Right here, right now
This is my crown
No past, no fear, no looking down
I came to live it right now
Right now
Right now
