[Intro]
Something’s changing
(What could it be?)
A little light
(Is dawning on me)
I looked away
(But couldn’t flee)
The thing I sought
(Was looking at me)
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning
With a thought in my head
Something I’d heard
(Something somebody said)
Could be coincidence
Could be a sign
Could be the future
(Catching up with time)
I took a step
Then another one
Didn’t know exactly
Where I was going
But looking back
I can finally see
The road I traveled
Was becoming me
[Refrain]
Reality…
(It’s dawning on me)
I’m starting to see
(Self-fulfilling destiny)
… or…
(A knew trajectory)
[Verse 2]
I thought the future
Was waiting somewhere
Hidden in the distance
(Floating in the air)
Turns out the future
Isn’t somewhere to find
Here it is forming
(One choice at a time)
[Refrain]
Reality…
(It’s dawning on me)
I’m starting to see
(Self-fulfilling destiny)
… or…
(A knew trajectory)
[Bridge]
… if the question
Is part of the clue…
Look at the answer
Staring at you
See!
(See more clearly)
Think!
(Think differently!)
Choose!
(Choose carefully!)
[Break]
For sure?
(Not quite!)
Certain?
(Nope!)
Written in stone?
(Not likely!)
Open for suggestion?
(Absolutely!)
Reality!
(Reality!)
What’s dawning on me?
(The way that we see “we”…)
Can change what it will be!
[Instrumental, Psychedelic Jam, Saxophone Solo, Percussion Break]
Dawn…
(Dawn…)
Dawn…
(Dawning on me…)
[Final Chorus]
Dawning on me
(Dawning on me)
I’m starting to see
(Self-fulfilling destiny)
… the future
Isn’t destiny
… our choices
Become reality
Dawning on me
(What will it be?)
Something is changing
Inside of me
… getting a clue
… about “we”
Starts with what we do
[Final Refrain]
Reality…
(It’s dawning on me)
I’m starting to see
(Self-fulfilling destiny)
… or…
(A knew trajectory)
Reality…
(It’s dawning on me)
Now I’m beginning to see
What I thought was destiny
(Is becoming “we”)
[Outro]
Dawning…
(Dawning…)
On me…
(On me…)
I can see…
(I can see…)
Win or lose…
What we choose
(… what we choose “to be.”)
Dawning on me…
