Sometimes I get all caught up in these frustration |
|
no my mamma's good raising just disappears |
|
I forget how far and deep a careless word can fly |
|
I hurt the ones I hold so dear |
|
Sometimes between the ruts and the rain |
|
the trainwrecks and the paychecks |
|
I get to feeling so damn small. |
|
And I forget that when it's all said and done |
|
I wanna be that someone |
|
who steps up and spray paints on the wall |
|
I was here, I'm alive |
|
I did more than survive |
|
changed a life, touched a heart |
|
took a stand, left a mark |
|
made the most out of all of my years, |
|
you won't need to see my name |
|
carved on a headstone to know |
|
I was here |
|
between the fancy gyms, the hot wings and the big screens |
|
you'd think that all i'd ever need was at a shopping mall |
|
I forget the most important things in this life |
|
just might not be things at all |
|
so i'm going to stop to thank a few of my earthbound angels |
|
for picking me up off the ground. |
|
I'm going to stop worrying bought a buck or two |
|
and start thinking bout what'll fill up all them pews |
|
the day they lay me down |
|
I was here, I'm alive |
|
I did more than survive |
|
changed a life, touched a heart |
|
took a stand, left a mark |
|
made the most out of all of my years, |
|
you won't need to see my name |
|
carved on a headstone to know |
|
I was here |
