There's got to be a first time, well everything starts that way
And it can come when you least expect it - a lifetime starts in a day
You know that I won't hesitate and I won't shy away
And when all is said and done I will survive this trial run
Initiation (the first time), Initiation (the first time)
There's got to be a first time that's what the wise men say
And they should know, they carved the roads on which we tread every day
You know that I won't compromise, and I won't shy away
And when all is said and done I will survive this trial run
Initiation (the first time), Initiation (the first time)
Initiation, the wheels will turn. Initiation, from all of this I'll learn
I hear the bells a-ringing, I hear the toll of change,
Cause there's got to be a first time darling, well everything starts that way
You know that I won't hesitate and I won't shy away
And when all is said and done I will survive this trial run
Initiation (the first time), Initiation (the first time)
Initiation, the wheels will turn. Initiation, from all of this I'll learn
Initiation, oh won't you hear my plea. initiation takes the best of me
This is my initiation
