Looking for the right words. They were right there. A mantra for someone at the exit who needs one more reason to reach instead of leave.
Lyrics
I had these words…
I knew them well,
Used 'em all the time
Used 'em to break my spell
Now why can't I find them?
Their at the edge of my tongue—
They could help him rise again
To break free from the numb
But it slips, it fades
I can't seem to recall
Though the essence was true
The lines just won't fall
He only sees what's not even there
Miss what's in front, what's fair and square
It breached a point- That last damn stop!
Can't realize, we're all we've got
Damn it!
I had words for this
A mantra so big, I can't let it slip
It's right there, on the edge of my tongue
To rise, to fight, we can't stay numb
Can't recall the line, but the essence is true
To aim for more, we all must push through
Screw this noise, why keep trying to rise?
We live in a free world, hiding in plain disguise
Yet movements pull strings, using him blind
Fighting for scraps, while his peace is confined
He's built great things, once reached for the sky
Now his thoughts feel wrong, no one knows why
There's so much rage and anger inside
And beneath it all, a hurt he can't hide
Damn it!
I had words for this,
A mantra so big, I can't let it slip
It's right there, on the edge of my tongue
To rise, to fight, we can't stay numb
Can't recall the line, but the essence is true
To aim for more, we all must push through
"For real now"
Our world is a stunning view
Yet he still lacks to see love that always grew
Instead of dreams in distant skies
He won't face flaws and confront his lies
Wish he'd ignore his exit in sight
Stop running from issues, be prepared to fight
Let lean on each other, and lean right back
And Maybe , just maybe -
We'll mend what his world still lacks
To stop the fear from what's not even there,
See what's in front, what's fair and square
Beyond that point- That last damn stop!
To finally see, we're all we've got
Damn it!
I had words for this,
A mantra so big, I can't let it slip.
It's right there, on the edge of my tongue,
To rise, to fight, we can't stay numb.
Can't recall the line, but the essence is true,
To aim for more, we all must push through.
Now stop the anger, I'm done feeling cold
Let's write our stories, even untold
There is more to freedom then just feeling free
I will rely on those close to me
And I share your burden, as you will share mine
We live and love, got plenty of time
We'll find solutions, It's in our cards
To come together-
And reach for the Stars
Oh snap!!... I remember my mantra.
Come Say it with me:
