Thursday, February 18

Rap it up:

You think there's no hope
cause you've let go of your hold
no longing clinging on to the rope
You're being dragged behind
the back of the boat
and you're scared cause you can't swim
but thank God you can float

It's daylight out
finally
after spending another sleepless night
as soon as you fall into bed
night after night
you never can sleep
staring wide-eyed and scared
can't shake the feelin' of restlessness from your souless feet
gotta get out
gotta do somethin with your heart
don't need a whole new fresh start
but need some motivation
to get ya outta this starvation
God, i hope you can find some salvation

Now you're on the road alone
running on pavement hard and fast and away from your home
Now you're free
you can finally roam
but where are you headed
where can you go
when your own fears are holdin you back
but if you turn around now it's over
you'll never go back
so just keep on running
lace up your shoes
you got nothin to loose
but remember you can only run so fast for so long
liftin weights can only make you so strong

Eventually the road will get tough
hills turn into mountains and the peaks pille up
and as you get older your strengh begins to fade
your muscles will fail as you grow frail and old
and you've spent all your time worrying
running and falling
you never stopped to slow down
never paused to watch the sun fall down
below the horizon
you laid every night
stuck still in your fright and you
didn't
even
know
