As a kid I struggled with anger Didn't have control of my temper Every single day my mouth would run away my Dad told me I need to learn to use my brain Didn't treat my siblings right Seems like every day we'd fight Didn't think it would change I guess I thought it'd always be this way All of my insecurities held me tight Like a vice holding a pipe All of these lies they gripped me tight Couldn't move couldn't run couldn't fight I've struggled with depression Don't really like stress and When I felt pressure I'd block it out and Push it out of my mind like it never happened Funny cause it never ended up working It would come back ten fold with a vengeance Beat me to the ground then leave me hurting Yeah leave me hurting I've been looking for a way to Escape and leave behind all of this Pain but shame is pounding on my door And guilt keeps calling my name Keeps calling my name will I Ever get away will I ever be the same As I was before will I ever be more Than a hollow shell just sitting and Waiting and praying for there to be more Didn't think the pain would ever leave Didn't think people would believe in me Didn't think this could ever happen Now looking back I can say I'm just happy I'm alive When hideous faces try to lie And you get beat up by life And you have to swallow pride That's the price to be alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive I remember when time dragged on I remember when it felt so long I remember people telling me that someday I would look back and wish it was still this way But did I believe them no I didn't think it be this stressful I thought the world was so full of hope And I didn't think that it'd be so cold Lot of things in my life that I regret Wake up in the middle of the night with a Cold sweat Praying that my dreams don't become reality Then hide them away so that no one could see I remember telling God I couldn't see him I remember begging him for freedom I remember every night when I shut my eyes tight Wishing I didn't have to fight this fight Dead of night wishing I could feel like Everything in my life wouldn't take a beeline Try to run away but the enemy keeps telling me that I am nothing he will never leave no matter what I try Late nights Wondering if I am ever gonna make it out Think twice Before I do something that I might regret I've done it before and I'll do it again this is My life I am happy I'm alive My time Better believe I will shine And know I don't take it for granted You only live once Looking round my life has it's ups and downs I could just sit down and pout tell myself I won't make it out let depression weigh me down let the world just Drown me out But that's hard to do cause I'm just happy I'm alive When hideous faces try to lie And you get beat up by life And you have to swallow pride That's the price to be alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive I've settled just a piece of my mind Is it likely I'll fail that's right If you think that stops me that is a lie I'm just chasing after my birth right I've settled just a piece of my mind Say to all negatives good bye It took a while to decide But listening to you's just like Setting off dynamite I won't lie This life's no piece of pie At times I think it brings blight I don't know why There's been times wish I could just rewind Looking at the world it could be my demise So in turn I'm diligent to think twice Take a warning as a legitimate sign I don't wanna end up pillaged When my life's in plight In life I wanna be polite So listen up I think I have advice The enemy speaks to trip and entice You better tread careful your walking on ice Everything the devil says is lies His only thought for you is to rob you blind In the end his plan for you is to die But look up there's hope in sight You got the King of kings on your side And you got Christ sitting at His right Got the Holy Ghost living inside So get up and tell the devil yeah WHY DON'T YOU TRY So when your scared and you want to hide Take courage get up to fight Cause you are a child of light Fan the flame keep hope alive When hideous faces try to lie And you get beat up by life And you have to swallow pride That's the price to be alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive When hideous faces try to lie And you get beat up by life And you have to swallow pride That's the price to be alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive When hideous faces try to lie And you get beat up by life And you have to swallow pride That's the price to be alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive Happy I'm alive
