From Rock Bottom
If you hit rock bottom oh don't cry
Stop & look around; try focus on the sky
Yes little darling wake that 'you' in your heart
The one that will tell you: 'The only way left is up'
I hope you shut out the taunts of the world
That you find warmth in this war with the bitter cold
I pray that you realize how the world works
That its important to value the fact that you come first
I won't lie to you & tell you it'll be easy
Because it will be hard, oh yes, you will get busy
You'll stumble & fall & stumble again
You'll cry & question when it will all end
Visualize the prize and the glorious finish line
Be patient with the talkers, the world and time
One day soon you'll reap what you sow
Then my friend you will truly know
The beauty of rising from rock bottom
Knowing you stood up again, spoke up...you showed 'em!
