Shadowboxing
Lyrics
Running from dreams had me dealing with insomnia
The road less traveled had me filled up with nausea
Not the life I planned after graduating college
On another detour I pray the path is solid
Is there more to life, far from the morbid type
Darkness go away, cause I'm long for the morning light
Had to say goodbye to my own expectations
Living in a world built on self-preservation
But honestly who wants to be an oddity
Lost in this odyssey we all need camaraderie
Worried about opinions, can leave your life strangled
Labeled me a square but I come with right angles
My own worst critic when life feels cryptic
Writing on the wall looks like hieroglyphics
Staying potent in faith with the opponent I face
The fight of my life, I need a moment of grace
Bouncing back cause I'm trying again
A little nervous but I'm fighting to win
Yea, I'm trying again
Can't quit gotta strive to the end
Knock me down but I'm rising again
Cause I'm fighting again
Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
Thought I'd settle down but that plan never leveled out
Picking up the pieces got my mind left with several doubts
Waiting on this the world now feel the weight of the world
Looking for the purpose someone gave me these pearls
What you don't repair be prepared to repeat
You wanna get win don't be scared of defeat
Know your own shadow as you walk in the light
You're your own worst threat take caution and fight
(Let's go) try again, I'm chasing after triumph
Facing all my giants on some David and Goliath
This ain't a fair fight, cause they'll leave you full of damage
So play your cards right, then gotta pull a Gambit
Life is a gamble never fold stay focused
Spent too much time in mind being hopeless
Might of took a loss but can't lose my confidence
Learning from mistakes but don't make 'em monuments
Bouncing back cause I'm trying again
A little nervous but I'm fighting to win
Yea, I'm trying again
Can't quit gotta strive to the end
Knock me down but I'm rising again
Cause I'm fighting again
Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
Running from dreams had me dealing with insomnia
The road less traveled had me filled up with nausea
Not the life I planned after graduating college
On another detour I pray the path is solid
Is there more to life, far from the morbid type
Darkness go away, cause I'm long for the morning light
Had to say goodbye to my own expectations
Living in a world built on self-preservation
But honestly who wants to be an oddity
Lost in this odyssey we all need camaraderie
Worried about opinions, can leave your life strangled

Whether fall or fly, give my all and try
Here I am, take the call to rise
