Let's recap the year so far, let's take the stairs, meaning follow my steps.
Don't let me lose you, I'm not trying to confuse you, but these are the reps.
You're gonna feel some type of way after this pen,
And that's a-ok but let's get this started and begin.
Merely a quarter of the way through and you're laid up in bed.
Dealing with demons, constant battles in your head
Weighing down on you, no strength, to weak, hell can't eat fucking bread.
Daughter won't pick up the phone, just leaves your messages on read.
If it's an inconvenience she's not gonna pull through.
Your body is attacking you, meaning a battle……you versus you.
Every attack this disease is gaining fucking ground,
At the moment you cant even make a sound.
Do you remember who the hell you are? Talking to you and Laurie is like broken pieces, so I'm puzzled.
Wouldn't be your first time to get your grind on and fight your way back, so you hustled.
I know the doubts are creeping in, is this worth the battle, when it knocks you flat.
You may not think so, let's give you some hope, you could use a couple shots of that.
We've just scratched the surface on the memories we are gonna share.
Latest one being falling in my lap after a broken chair.
As this battle unfolds and the knock downs pile up
Just like in that boat, I'll be there to pick you up.
So it's left, right, left your a soldier now,
One thing about us is we do not bow.
The war isn't over, has merely just begun.
It's ok to be down, not ok to be done,
time to get angry, for fucks sake get mad.
Too soon for me to lose my dad
So, Ignite that internal flame and let's get a strong hold.
Reaching hand, come grab ahold.
And let's get you outta the black,
let's call this the comeback.
Time for you to do the time, don't let the time do you.
String too many bad days leaves bruises black and blue.
Listen and hear the hoofbeats runnin,
Send a messenger, tell cancer that your comin.
Don't stop, keep on the roan, til king cancer is overthrown.
Sharpen your mind, here you go, take this wet-stone.
Look over to your right, you'll find me there down to ride.
Pushing, fighting, pulling to get you to the other side.
Many options are scattered about across the table,
Quitting, stopping, giving up are ones that are not in the stable.
Your strong, brave, courageous but now it's time to endure.
Let me under some of that weight and let me help to insure,
this journey reaches the final destination and we can have a brew,
While we stare cancer down, throw up the finger and say FUCK YOU.
So it's left, right, left your a soldier now,
One thing about us is we do not bow.
The war isn't over, has merely just begun.
It's ok to be down, not ok to be done,
time to get angry, for fucks sake get mad.
Too soon for me to lose my dad
So, Ignite that internal flame and let's get a strong hold.
Reaching hand, come grab ahold.
And let's get you outta the black,
let's call this the comeback.
I love you dad, you gonna get through this.
