[Lucidious: Verse 1]
Picture this… just a kid who's 21
Caught up in the world tryin’ to figure where to go but he really don’t know so he runs
From everything that he knows, everyone that he loves
Everything that he once trusted but pushed away with a shove
Lost a couple loved ones above to all of the doves
Many issues but he sweeps em all underneath of the rug
He bottles up he fights he drinks
Late at night he just thinks
He lies awake can't get a wink prepares himself to sink
Finally falls, slips into a dream that's commonly lucid…. sees his name up in the lights and he shoots it he cannot believe
That anyone would wanna hear his words
Tell him to work on school and quit perfecting his verse
I mean really what is he worth? One in a million
If only they knew what he's been through bouncing back he's resilient
Waiting for them to feel it, close his wounds with the sealant
Eyes are glued to the pen and paper he’s gonna reveal it no you can’t
[Anna: Hook]
You can’t let nobody stand in your way, you just gotta get back up, yeah
You just gotta get back up, ohh
And take down everything that you cannot change now, you just gotta get back up, yeah
You just gotta get back up, ohh..
[Lucidious: Verse 2]
Ever since I was a little kid I knew exactly what I really wanted to be
Working real hard with an attitude only resulting in money for my family
Even though we have been broken apart, I’ll make it all change I promise you’ll see
On my feet, tell my loved ones that I will never leave
Apologize for the disappointments I made throughout my life
I know that I fucked up, but I promise I won’t make em twice I’m cold as ice
But I can’t keep blaming em on the girl who I thought would be my wife and have my kids the only two reasons I started to write
Music showed me my light, it took me outta my dark
It’s picked me up and it’s shot me down, but it ignited my sparks
Still he can’t believe that they would wanna hear his words
Tell him to work on school and quit perfecting his verse
I mean really what is he worth? One in a million
If only they knew what he's been through bouncing back he's resilient
Waiting for them to feel it, close his wounds with the sealant
Eyes are glued to the pen and paper he’s gonna reveal it no you can’t
[Anna: Hook]
You can’t let nobody stand in your way, you just gotta get back up, yeah
You just gotta get back up, ohh
And take down everything that you cannot change now, you just gotta get back up, yeah
You just gotta get back up, ohh..
[Lucidious: Verse 3]
Close my eyes drift away, start to dream it’s all okay
Put reality on hold I’m in the place that I am safe
Memories I will replace, future I will contemplate
Every day that I awake remember all of my mistakes
Going through the motions waiting for a door to open
They say it happens every time you see one that is closing
Tell me life is gold I don’t feel I have a token
Wrote a story in my lyrics I have finally spoken
I hope they listen cause I got a lot up on my mind
And even when it don’t make sense I can find line
As I dry my eyes to tell a lie to hold my pride
Standing straight a chiropractor couldn’t figure why
Cause I rewind and recall the days that I wasted time
Now I’m choosing any road that I can finally drive
I spread my wings take a leap and hope that I survive
I accept the fact that everybody has to die…and I know
[Anna: Hook]
You can’t let nobody stand in your way, you just gotta get back up, yeah
You just gotta get back up, ohh
And take down everything that you cannot change now, you just gotta get back up, yeah
You just gotta get back up, ohh..
