This "carpe diem" song celebrates the freedom of choice and the right to look forward rather than feel branded by our past...

I've been a kid, been to school
Made mistakes, I've even broken a few rules
I've fallen down, pushed around
Gave my ground, but tell me, what's a guy to do?
I've played it cool, called it smart
Been untrue, I know I've broken someone's heart
But no more war, or keepin' score
I'll open the front door, instead of livin' in my backyard
CHORUS:
What a day
I don't care if the rain shall fall, I feel twenty feet tall
What a day
There's no limit to what I can do, 'cause every day is brand new
And what a day
People tell me what to see
But mister, I'm not you and you're not me
I could stay in yesterday, but now it's gone away
I will choose what I should be
Hey I know the line on wrong and right
And the right side's where I'll fight to spend my life
I can make a difference in this world
I just need to keep on standing upright
CHORUS
I'm not proud of things I've done
I won't forget a single one
Tomorrow will forgive me I believe
CHORUS
