I've never felt so alive
I'v never felt so real
I almost gave up
But I'm moving still
Addict since I was 11
Dr. said I was mental
I thought I'd never see heaven
I've went through hell
God spared me
So I'm alive to tell
I've never felt so alive
I'v never felt so real
I almost gave up
But I'm moving still
I'm lucky to be here
You wouldn't know if I didn't tell
My life flashed slowly before my eyes
I crawled from the pit, I crawled out of hell
I make up for lost time
I'm movin fast
I'm movin forward
And I look back on my past
I looked at myself and said,
"Is anyone there?"
And I found a naked soul in there
That told me, "Come on, the coast is clear."
It took 16 years, but there's no more fear
Now you're grown now
What happened to your life
You have make up for lost time now
But the pleasure is amplified
by the pain and the strife
Don't be bitter
This is your life
Don't waste it staring at splinters
Rebuild this house
But make it bigger
And make it better
You're growing stronger
Because the rain came
and the roots are wetter
Pray for those in drought
And tell them not to doubt
Every king outta be in a cave
because when you have nothing and noone
and darkness comes
You can see everything so clearly
And then the sun looks brighter
And you wonder, "how did I miss this really?"
And you live on the second
And you've never felt so alive
You've gotten so much higher
because you were taken so low
You can never go back
You're above the show
And now you have a crazy
love for enemies
Cuz when they tried to stop ya
It just kick-started ya
We've felt the same way
Different situations, but the same thing
So believe me, I feel ya
I know it looks cloudy
But stick around
Because the sun will come out
and you'll see you've climbed mountains
and slayed giants
What would David be without Goliath?
And what would I be without my giants
What you kill, you become
So what you're wrestling,
don't leave undone
Hold the truth and stay loyal
Don't forget your blood is royal
And if you need me, I got you
And no matter where I am,
I'm never far from you
