lyrics

Are you afraid of it not working out?
Cause I’ve got news for you buddy,
It won’t
And that’s the only way I condone.

Cause when they say “That’s just the way it is”
I know I’ve got something they don’t
And that’s the only way I’ve known.

So I move on to bigger and better things
I won’t let anyone hold me back,
And there’s only one way I atone.

I push myself to be more than I am,
It’s mind over matter that matters today,
And that’s the only way I’ve grown.

*Are you afraid of the ground that you’ve found holding you?
Cause I’m in the shade and the sun doesn’t know what to do.
And I will stay ‘til it’s cold and I need something more,
But ‘til that day I’ll admit that I don’t know.

I count the days ‘til we can be free
And step into the light bleeding down on what would be
A life that the most content would envy.

And I see a hill that’s smooth and refrained from afar,
As I hold my guitar and listen
To the grass that’s washing around the prairie.

But take a closer look and you’ll see,
Those hills are covered with rocks and debris,
But by the time you realize it’s too late to agree.

‘Cause we’re on the top looking down,
At trees too dense to hear the sound,
Of your voice reflecting off the common ground.

*Are you afraid of the ground that you’ve found holding you?
Cause I’m in the shade and the sun doesn’t know what to do.
And I will stay ‘til it’s cold and I need something more,
But ‘til that day I’ll admit that I don’t know.
