Dax - Depression

LexNour This life gets real hard and sometimes you may feel you're outta place You may think there's time then blink and Find it's gone and you can't waste You gotta take a hold Embrace it, close your eyes and walk by faith And go today, don't wait, yeah Go today, don't wait, don't wait, go today Life is crazy, it can switch up in a second School of hard knocks thought me how to deal With my aggression I was never one to cry, my face was Blank with no expression Had to keep a strong face, go to war with my depression I was hurting inside, battling with my faith But God he never gave me nothing I can overtake He put me in position to get stronger through the pain To appreciate the sun after the rain We gotta remind that it gets better with time And we got one life to live and it's Guaranteed that we die So when we open our eyes and take a look in the sky Just be thankful and conquer the day yeah This life gets real hard and sometimes you May feel you're outta place You may think there's time then blink and find It's gone and you can't waste You gotta take a hold, embrace it Close your eyes and walk by faith And go today, don't wait, yeah Go today, don't wait, don't wait, go today Go today don't wait for tomorrow It isn't promised, all the time you get borrowed Don't live your life for other people Don't bottle your emotions till they crack and Fill a couple just sorrows Take your mind and refocus go get a paper write your goals out Throw your middle fingers to all your haters Had some hard working on top of it Mixing consistent prayers Say you're never gonna quit sayonara and see you later 'Cause I gotta remind that we are not meant to survive We meant to live in the moment and make the best of our lives So when we open our eyes and take a look in the sky Just be thankful and conquer the day This life gets real hard and sometimes you may feel You're outta place You may think there's time then blink and find it's Gone and you can't waste You gotta take a hold, embrace it, close your eyes and walk by faith And go today, don't wait, yeah Go today, don't wait, don't wait, go today

Dear depression, do you think that you can stop me? I know the answer, but I see you getting cocky I've seen you win this battle numerous times But you ain't ever gonna take a life that's rightfully mine I understand That your intention is to infiltrate my mind And plant these little seeds of doubt that grow into a massive vine That wrap around my head until I can't get loose You started doing this already so you cannot lose At least you think But who's the one that's in control everything That has to with I how I function Right, that's me See I have grown an understanding of the things you do You're a part of me, but not me So I cannot lose Yeah we gone be alright Just give it some time The more that we fight this fight The more that depression dies I'm a product of an illness I was born with My momma has anxiety and that's what I was formed in I tried to live a life that I was constantly ignoring The truth about my mental state but that wasn't rewarding The way that facing up to it is And understanding that it's not a shameful thing to admit I'm not okay sometimes And that sometimes is a bit Daunting And at times it makes feel like a kid The way that I create imaginary scenarios in my head And fear them to the point that it gives me an existential dread That's greater than the fears that I have grounded in reality But that's just what it's like to be living in your anxiety (damn) We gone be alright Just give it some time The more that we fight this fight The more that anxiety dies
