I’m Just Livin’

I’ve been waking up every morning just trying to get past it

Till’ a spark of life hit me from above, yeah I was like “what happened?”

Instantly I saw everything from another point of view

I’m so thankful for whatever light God sent down to me cause I see it through

I’m no longer rising up with dread, every day out of bed

Steppin’ out the door with clouds surrounding the thoughts in my head

My sight was gone but I could hear

I was being told to roll on like a sphere

 

I’m just livin’ every day, livin’ every day

Lookin’ at the best of every moment, even if it’s grey

Emotions out like buffets, loving everyone who stays

Like a monument in St. Louis, a gateway to escape

These blessings are to me when they happen

I’m logging the good times just like a cabin so

I won’t forget occurrences as the days pass by

I’m remembering the good times

 

Keepin’ em’ close to home

Yeah I’m keepin’ em’ close to home

 

As a young man I felt alone in my discernment

Pastors preached upon my doorstep but I never heard a sermon

Didn’t know where I was going or how to handle my burdens

Felt a sheep to everyone above me, yet couldn’t stop herding

I was broke and I was hurting, I needed a way out

Which was somehow now possible, even with being devout

That’s supposed to be a good trait, but was nearly my fallout

Like spoiled veggies on conveyer belts, they checked me out

But I learned to look past their gazing glares and take my own route

Cause why on Earth would I change?

That would be messed up in the brain

These peeps firing shots out of range

 

I’m just livin’ every day, livin’ every day

Lookin’ at the best of every moment, even if it’s grey

Emotions out like buffets, lovin’ everyone who stays

Like a monument in St. Louis, a gateway to escape

These blessings are to me when they happen

I’m logging the good times just like a cabin so

I won’t forget occurrences as the days pass by

I’m remembering the good times
