Begin Again

(album: Hard Pills And Heartbreak - 2021)

I've been to the tip of the top (Of the top)
Then fallen to the bed of the rocks (Bed of the rocks)
I'm running circles, but don't stop
Them hubs, I gotta lock 'em in
And then dig in and begin again
When you run off road and
Don't know where you're going
Dig in and begin again
When you run off road and
Don't know where you're going
Dig in and begin again

I've held it all and thought I saw it all
Aw nah, I ain't seen nothing
I got 15/20 vision
And I still couldn't see this coming
Maybe I been drumming for the wrong band
Baby, I been rowing to the wrong land
'Cause my ship hit seashore
And your heart wasn't in the sand (Nah)
I coulda anchored out, miles out (Uh)
And waited for you to map out our plans
But it seems our ships are nautically
Not equipped for meeting our demands
And because of this, I started drinking again
Like a fish, I'll admit, I've been in over my gills
Swimming in regret and guilt
But I won't let depression kill me
Today, I got up on my feet
And I breathed a sigh of relief
'Cause I believe the storm's behind me (Yeah)
I can feel the wind beneath my wings
I've started flying, I can finally see

I've been to the tip of the top (Of the top)
Then fallen to the bed of the rocks (Bed of the rocks)
I'm running circles, but don't stop
Them hubs, I gotta lock 'em in
And then dig in and begin again
When you run off road and
Don't know where you're going
Dig in and begin again
When you run off road and
Don't know where you're going
Dig in and begin again

I've made mountains from an ant mound
I've stayed bound to another's orders, sat down
I've been to counseling, check that background
I've been down and out 'til I lost count (Too many times)
It's just another notch in the wooden stock of my life's rifle
Another page of lyrics saved from another day in my Bible
I'll be alright
Even though I may be here all night
'Cause when I sit down to write
I can't stop 'til I'm feeling like it's all good
And it's all good, all great
'Cause I'm running like I'm in the hallways
Of the eighth grade on the last day
Before summer break, celebrate (Woo)
Boy, I elevate until I levitate
Above the hating noise like I'm a Boeing plane (Woosh)
Find no escape to be too great to make
I'm Houdini when the stress calls
True genius stop and pause, y'all, 'cause
When I wish to begin again, I begin right where I left off

I've been to the tip of the top (Of the top)
Then fallen to the bed of the rocks (Bed of the rocks)
I'm running circles, but don't stop
Them hubs, I gotta lock 'em in
And then dig in and begin again
When you run off road and
Don't know where you're going
Dig in and begin again
When you run off road and
Don't know where you're going
Dig in and begin again
