lyrics

Every word I’ve ever said
You’ve heard a million times before.
But all the dreams I’ve ever dreamt
Have never mattered more.
I’m searching for some courage
To keep my head on straight.
I’m working up an appetite
For all that’s on my plate.
I’ll find a way to say it
Take these convictions to my grave
Rising above complacency
Making my own way
I’m searching for some courage
To keep my head on straight.
I’m working up an appetite
For all that’s on my plate.
Elusive motivation,
It is so hard to find.
Sometimes the biggest shoes to fill
Are the ones that are mine.
I’ll raise my fist and raise my voice
Regardless of who’s around.
I’m a broken record, tried and true
But at least I’m making sound.
