I am not my past
I am not a prisoner in its cell
Those injustices were not made to last
I�ve done my time so now I bid farewell

Fire blazing high
Can�t fear the choice to let die

CHORUS:
This cremation
Say good-bye to all the years
My resurrection
will cause the pain to disappear
Gonna get my matches
And watch the past burn, turn to ashes

I am not my scars
I have not ever been defeated
this life is mine, not ours
I�m not a victim just because I�ve been mistreated

Flames dancing in the wind
It�s another chance to begin

Let the pictures fade in my mind
Clean up the mess he made and left behind
He may have touched my heart
But God knows no one can lay a hand on my soul
So I will start...
