"One Thing"


I’ve been
Underwhelmed
Overcooked and
Jaded
Living on my last
Drop of adrenaline

Need a change to
Come screaming down the road
Bold-faced and petrified
To shake me
Resurrect what’s left
To bide me
And my time here
In limbo

A quarter-life being unreliable

Now I’ll take a stand
Against myself
And make a change
No more backing out
No more backing out
Keeping my feet planted
On the ground
And my heart
Soaring through the clouds

I’ll take what I can get
No complaints
Using blessings to achieve the rest
No cursing and crying
When nothing turns out
I’ll keep trying
Don’t let myself down

Now I’ll take a stand
Against myself
And make a change
No more backing out
No more backing out
Keeping my feet planted
On the ground
And my heart
Soaring through the clouds

If there was one thing I could save
I’d learn my way but stay the same
Finding new ways to forgive
And leave a pint of blood
Where I live

Now I’ll take a stand
Against myself
And make a change
No more backing out
No more backing out
Keeping my feet planted
On the ground
And my heart
Soaring through the clouds

Keeping my feet planted
On the ground
And my heart soaring
