Knock Me Out

Knock me out
I thought I was strong
Till I became stronger 
Cos I was knocked out 
Of life at a stand 
I thought I was strong 
It was a disgrace 
Yet I bear my failure
Notice my mistake 
And hit on to life again
Especially when I realise
The old mans words
Life is up and down
That make it interesting
That is why it called life 
He said to my young soul

Knock my out 
I have been depressed
I left it alone 
The way I found it 
And regained 
an higher energy
Yet life never stop 
To push me ahead 
Even doe it pulls me 
Down as well 
Like up and down 
Like the old man said 

Knock me out 
I have failed 
Yet am a testimony
I have cried 
Yet am a survival 
I have bleed 
Yet I am peaceful
Who thought I will 
Be this good 
Even when I was 
Born from the jungle
How can I be a king 
Out from the wilder ness
My testimony is great 
But it can't touch no 
Soul with out love 
Tell God am a sinner 
Cos he knows at least 
I got I soul 
I wish to touch the world 
But I can't fly 
Even when I touch 
The sky still I can't dance 
In the moon 
After all I have 
Where am I going 
I know I will leave you one day and
Always it remembrance always
Knock me out
