RELEASE DAY

I’ve been up, I’ve been down

I have crawled through the trenches

Tied yellow ribbons round old pickett fences

And with god as my witness it’s all been worth it

It was a hell of ride and I know it wasn’t perfect

I have seen the light and I have been in the dark

I have felt your love like a shot in the heart

Now I know the best sunsets come after a storm

The darkest trial followed by amber warmth

After dropping the ball, a fight to stand tall

Getting back up after the hardest fall

You can’t say you got faith if you ain’t ever had doubts

A tussle with morals and your head & heart bout

I don’t mean to preach but I’ve seen it with my own eyes

Everything you’re searching for is right in front of you the whole time 

Maybe we need to feel pain just to know we’re alive

Keep on chasing the truth and aiming for the light

The path will be rough and our feet start to bleed

Reminds us of love and the ones that we need 

It’s not a dance, it’s a brawl, a condolence call. 

Hitting a brick wall, caught in a maul

Your hearts working out if it matters at all
