Revival


Have you ever had the feeling when you're depleted

And the feeling of being tired in seeded

In your head and your body

And your vision is getting kinda spotty

Then all of a sudden you get a resurgence

That refreshes you more than detergents

I'm not talking about running

Cuz for that I'll always be stunning

I'm talking about how you feel

When you're ready to break down for real

And you think of things like they're on a reel

And you try to take them off like a peel

Because you want to make it seem like you're make of steel

Even though you don't feel like you're behind the wheel

And you just bend over and keel

Get on one knee and kneel

Trying to figure out what's the deal

Making sure you keep what they can not steal

So you end up trying to conceal

And you're hoping they don't find your achilles' heel

It's time to get your head out of your ass

Move out all the toxic stuff like gas

It's time to go fast

Block out everything in the past

There's nothing to stress about

Even when you just want to run and shout

It's time to grow a pair and show your might

Make it know to others like a bright green light

Shit always seems worse the more you think about it

So in reality a lot of things don't mean shit

There's no reason to be quite or bitching

The only plan should be sticking and kicking

If life hands you lemons don't make lemonade

Squeeze it in life's eye like it's haterade

We doubt ourselves too much with all the barricades 

Blow it up with some big grenades

This is how you get refueled

All you're life you've dueled

It's time for you to realize that you're more than you think you are

You're the one the depend on cuz you're the main star

Hold you head up high

You know you can defy

The odds and the obstacles against you

Cuz you've done it before, you know it's true

It's time to celebreate what you've become 

And knowning damn well that you won't succumb

This is your legacy 

It's time to show your supremacy

This is your revival

After all this time that you've focused on survival

You have new life and energy, a refound sense of purpose

So you'll do more than just resurface

You'll break the ground and show all that you are

Because you know by far

That you are the very best even with all the scars
