about

A song about transformation.

lyrics

SPOKEN WORD Intro:
No one really backs you up,
Loyalty is thinner than air these days
I go about my way trying to find a higher ground
the cliffs take over my vision
the road looks long and narrow to the top
i'm nowhere i wanna be, but gotta
remember this life is a journey...
just gotta keep moving
Oh well if I have nothing,
I still have everything, as long as my legs and lungs work
its about the progression
its the most impossible of missions
keep moving even when the road is collapsing
stay blessed, remember the blessings

Verse:
Things haven't changed much
the headaches still come around
and I am still outta touch
my feelings are watered down

but this meteor shower
will not stop my progress
everyday I wake up
I remember I am blessed

So i take that deep breath
and I KEEP ON
itll all be worth it soon

I grab my two legs and I run
when my brain says
"do not move"

and the collisions of power
wake me up from hibernation
and i could not care one bit
if you don't like it

AND I AM STILL BROKE
AND I AM STILL BROKE
BUT WITH THIS BREATH
I AM STILL BLESSED
