Verse 1
There is a knot in your stomach that eats at you
You feel ashamed because it mocks you

It challenges your will to live, tests your strength
Now here you are face to face, raw and real
Your inadequacies and insecurities

Come to the surface and hit your reality
Something you've been rejecting for so long
There will always come a time when it is too strong

And here it is, alone, no witness, the crowd is what you miss
This is where the ego fail and self pity gets no recognition
Your materialistics go stale

All alone no ammunition
Do you fold and feel the self hate?
Or feel the pain and from it self-create

Learn from your mistakes, accumulate a better fate
Lick your wounds cause that how they grew, your heros
There are very few but next on the list is you, if your choose to

So what are you gonna do? Cause here you lay half awake, scared of what today brings
But you can always count on the birds to sing
A beautiful instrumental

It ain't cut and edited, its raw and sentimental.

Verse 2

I used to hit it like it was my last fix
Now I sing It like its all I got left
Today I fell and I wept

But tomorrow's just another step
Gotta choose a path to take like why?
But no surprise this is where my strength lies

Heart tested with the hardest questions
Will the shame lessen? Who or what will my faith rest in?
Yesterday, today and probably tomorrow

Hard to walk my feet are weighed down by the sorrow
But no matter how heavy the soul of my foot maybe
Life is a game of inches and this next step could save me

I'm gonna sit back and listen to what the birds have to say
Cause they help me focus on only today
Cause they sing a beautiful instrumental

That's not cut and edited, its raw and sentimental
It's theirs to own no rental
So listen and find strength in their beautiful instrumental.
