Resiliency of A Man

My life has been one hell of a tumultuous ride
I sometimes wonder if at birth I should've died
I'm being honest and saying anything else would be a lie
I've even had my moments where I've contemplated suicide
Being knocked to your knees and standing up again
Paints a clear cut picture of the resiliency of a man
Life has whooped my ass but I continue to try and stand
Attempting to be the winner of so you think you can dance
Doing my best two step rendition instead of submitting
I want to tap out though and that's what I'm freely admitting
It sometimes feels like I'm in an emotional and mental prison
Like Mic told Rocky, "Get Up!" is what I keep on envisioning
