 The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com

I do this for my family 
Obsessed with success until I slip into insanity 
I say I'm gonna do it, so I follow through 
Swim inside a dead sea long enough, it swallows you... it's true 
And I'm trying to be that dude still 
Traveling uncharted, trespassing where the truth builds 
I was in a bath tub with a salt shaker 
The next thing I know, I'm holding on to melting glaciers 
Now, water world with a widespread ice patch 
Poking through the plastic on a momentary life raft 
Waiting for the flood to float me up until I'm flying 
Maybe I'll be sinking... Either way, I'm dying... it's cool ya'll 
It's all good, man I promise 
That's why I'm working over time to get something accomplished
I contemplate quitting every time I get it started 
Stumble over doubt until you learn to disregard it... for real 
And I'll be doing this forever... 
Cause every day, I dedicate to being better... it's better 
I'll be doing this forever 
Until I'm better 

And that's just how it is
You're only gonna get what you can give 
This is every single thing that I've ever thought about 
Taking place in a personified fire til I'm out

And if it's running out, let the smoke fill the room 
This is dedicated to my friends leaving us too soon 
It's fucked up, but honestly, I think about it daily 
I still recall the moment that I noticed you were changing 
Fading in and out of conciousness, I could see your eyes roll back 
Trapped in a hospital, where the lines go flat 
Flashing the image right in front of me 
Ever since I saw it, I have not been sitting comfortably 
Comforting a mother that I knew would not recover 
The father and the bottle start re-speaking to each other 
Chasing any chance of a change to occur 
Into an oblivion that fades to a blur 
And that's the type of pain that nobody can explain 
And that's the type of pain that nobody can explain 
And that's the type of pain that nobody can explain 
Because every time we talk, I know everything has changed 
I can't imagine everything that's running through your mind 
It's racing in a circle, trying to leave it all behind 
It's gonna be alright, really that's all I can say 
I'm not sure if I mean it, but I wish it every day 
It's gonna be OK 

And that's just how it is 
You're only gonna get what you can give 
This is every single thing that I ever thought about 
Taking a place in a personified fire til it's out 

You take the light away from me, I promise that I'll shine 
I'm not sure what it is, but it's embedded in my mind 
Making something out of nothing, nothing isn't really anything 
If everything you do is what you are then start envisioning 
I'm visiting epiphanies that sit between the sky 
And everything above it that we cannot see with eyes 
I look up and imagine magic manifesting peace 
Listen close enough and you can hear it when it speaks 
And this is what I am, this is everything I need 
Until my body fails me, and then my soul is free 
And if it doesn't fly, then I hope to God it floats 
So I can finally rise and become more than a ghost 

And this is what I am, this is everything I need 
Until my body fails me, and then my soul is free 
And If it doesn't fly, then I hope to God it floats 
So I can finally rise and become more than a ghost 

I'm gettin close, yall... I'm gettin close
