about

"We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."
-Walt Disney

lyrics

Feelings in my head, can’t seem to go away,
Nagging at my conscience all damn day.
Say what you want I’m not working for the devil,
My serotonin’s just a little unlevel.
Mom and Pop saw me through,
Put me on meds, hey what you gonna do?
I felt lifeless and pathetic,
Didn’t know that shit was possibly genetic.

Life ain’t that bad for a kid like me,
Being handicapped but only physically.
Living life experimenting why not?
Just stay on top and get out of this spot.
There’s so much more to see than the same routine,
Don’t let the barriers of life hold you back from the unseen.
Try and brush off the small things,
Can’t sing, this is why it's hip hop, so let those keys ring.

I know things seem bad and out of control,
But keep your head cool, maintain your hold,
These troubles aren’t trivial but try to stay true,
Don’t let these feelings overtake you.

Life can be rough, tough till you’ve had enough,
Trials and tribulations—show your true stuff,
Fear of failure should not mask emotion,
Live for the moment now set it in motion.

The end is close so live it well
Do not pose it could be fatal
Don’t know why just get there some how
Keep moving, keep moving now til you get to the end.
