Turtles In The Waves

(album: Trailblazer - 2023)

Life feels different with nothing in my way
My mood keeps shifting as my pain begins to fade
I finally see that
It wasn't all a waste
It wasn't all a waste
I say it wasn't all a waste

'Cause I've been hoping and praying for this day
Now I'm floating like a turtle in the waves
I finally see that it wasn't all a waste
It wasn't all a waste
I say it wasn't all a waste

Used to scream up at the sky
I want to live don't want to die
I can't watch my life pass by
Nothings changed how hard I try
Now I got some peace of mind
Improve my health I'll exercise
Like a phoenix I will rise
Like an eagle I will fly

Used to being on the outside looking in
Now I'm inside and I'm never giving in
All these changes are beginning to make motherfucking sense
Ten years and running stopping now would be a sin

All this energy I've spent
On these mistakes I've had to fix
But every moment led to this
Without my dreams I can't exist
The journey's long the fall is quick
Learned to recover when I slip
I failed so much but never quit
I failed so much but never quit

Life feels different with nothing in my way
My mood keeps shifting as my pain begins to fade
I finally see that
It wasn't all a waste
It wasn't all a waste
I say it wasn't all a waste

'Cause I've been hoping and praying for this day
Now I'm floating like a turtle in the waves
I finally see that it wasn't all a waste
It wasn't all a waste
I say it wasn't all a waste

Used to never think this day would ever come
Feel the air rushing back into my lungs
When everything is on the line you just respond
Perspectives change when you turn that pressure off

Life feels different with nothing in my way
My mood keeps shifting as my pain begins to fade
I finally see that
It wasn't all a waste
It wasn't all a waste
I say it wasn't all a waste

'Cause I've been hoping and praying for this day
Now I'm floating like a turtle in the waves
I finally see that it wasn't all a waste
It wasn't all a waste
I say it wasn't all a waste
