[Verse 1]
Another memory and I'm asking myself:
Why can't I let the past be the past?
Once and for all take a hold of the future
And not let it control what I aspire to have
I see where my decisions have brought me
What's done is done and its time to start again
Can't let it tear me in two, or waste me away
I gotta believe

[Chorus]
Cause this is now (now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
This is now (now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
This is now (now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
This is now (now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny

[Verse 2]
What I've seen and what I've been through
Has made me who I am
There was a time in my life
Where I had no desire to carry on
I couldn't see a place for me
Or a will to survive
I never thought to rely on myself
Or the beliefs that I had denied
[Chorus]
But this is now (now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
This is now (now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
This is now (now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
This is now (now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny

[Bridge]
If I control myself
I control my tomorrow
I got to change today
Cause this is now!
Now! (now!)
Now! (now!)
This is now!
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
I must control myself if I'm to control my destiny
Cause this is now!
This is now!

[Chorus]
This is now (now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
This is now (now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
This is now (now!)
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today?
This is now (now!)
If I control myself I control my destiny
