I Must...
I must continue to put one foot in front of the other
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
I must continue my progress forward
despite wanting to turn around
despite wanting to crawl away
despite the hollow place in my core
I must continue to be brave and strong
despite feeling fearful
despite feeling confused
despite the pain in my soul
I must continue to confront my monsters
despite needing to feel protected
despite needing to feel reassured
despite the terror in my heart
I must continue to put one foot in front of the other
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
I must continue my progress forward
despite wanting to turn around
despite wanting to crawl away
despite the hollow place in my core
I must continue to be brave and strong
despite feeling fearful
despite feeling confused
despite the pain in my soul
I must continue to confront my monsters
despite needing to feel protected
despite needing to feel reassured
despite the terror in my heart
I must continue to put one foot in front of the other
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down
pick ‘em up, put ‘em down

Deep with emotion and courage. Good rhythm to live on... A bit excessive with the " pick em up put em down. Less is more and the steps are taken throughout the verse. Keep Grindin CAOS737
