INTRO
(DEMO)

I keep on fallin', and somethin's pullin me down,
I keep on callin', but ain't nobody else around,
And just when I think I lost myself is when I figured out that I'm found,
And now I think it's time to pull, myself right back up on to solid ground,

VERSE 1
(BIG MO-BERG)

Feel the breeze when it blows, and it's so cold,
All alone, when I roam in my own zone,
Misplaced in a place that is no home,
While my soul fades away like the ozone,
And my ground is real shaky now,
No foundation here to brace me now,
Try to stand like a man wit a plan, but everybody wanna try to break me down,
Negativity, never let it get to me, knowin' that the weight of it can take me down,
If that's all that you givin' me, you ain't no friend to me, you the enemy that makes me drown,
Tryin' to stay above the water line wit snakes hangin at the border line,
At the edge with they hands out, lookin' for a handout, but they ain't trying' to throw me no support or line,
Then they go try to ignore my shine,
Call me dark, wit no heart, but I'm fittin' ta spark till I rip apart little marks up,
Wanna start, and you might wanna fight, but I'm bright like a light in the night, and the darkness,
Ain't nothin' you can tell me Jack,
I break the chains in my brain that have held me back,
I overcame all the pain, been through hell and back,
So I don't worry bout haters and how they'll react,
I could care less, hit em in the bare chest,
Then I'm fittin' ta stare death down like I'm careless,
My awareness got me knowin' they're next,
Plottin' over their threats, watchin' over their steps,
Sometimes you gotta lose to win,
You fall down, rebuild, get up, do it again,
Put your back to the wall, get to movin' again,
Cuz in the end, my friend, you gotta choose to win,

HOOK
(DEMO)

Feel the breeze when it blows in the night and it's oh so cold,
Tryin' to do my best to stay above the ground,
Back and forth, tug of war, is a game played with my soul,
And everybody wanna try to pull me down,
So how will I find the strength to overcome,
When everything around me's tumblin' down,
But I know that I will not stop until I've won,
And I'm standin' back on solid ground,

VERSE 2
(THAT MANIAC ZACK)

Feel the breeze when it blows and it's so cold,
All alone on my own and I'm feelin' froze,
No home cuz I know there's nowhere to go,
Tug of war wit my soul, I can feel the pull,
People wanna bring me low when they get a hold,
So I gotta battle foes to get on my toes,
Doesn't matter when I'm close to losin' control,
Unstable but I'm able to hold on to hope,
Love your neighbor but they're evil and wicked with sin,
So I'm diggin' deep, lookin' within
To find the strength to compete and win,
Got me slippin' with no grip again,
But it's different cuz I'm off the edge, in a plummet to the darkest depths,
Steady fallin' wit no balance left, my heart pounds but I lost my breath,
Need a second just to brace for this, ain't a secret my support's a myth,
But I know if I quit then that's it, can't just sit cuz I'll sink like a brick,
Must commit to get up out this pit, cuz I'm stuck wit no lift, but I'll never submit,
To this torment and think that I'll live, everybody wants a little more than I can give,
Starvin', lookin' at my ribs like a skeleton but it's evident they wanna get my bread, leave me left for dead,
Kill my confidence, but I'm positive more than ever now, I found no matter how,
I gotta get to solid ground, I can never let em bring me down cuz I'll drown from the hate around,
And I'd rather make my daughter proud, when I take a bow for the crowd that can only doubt,
Never tried to help me out, only wanna run their mouth,
Like I won't amount to squat, but I'm on solid ground with the top on lock,

HOOK
(DEMO)

Feel the breeze when it blows in the night and it's oh so cold,
Tryin' to do my best to stay above the ground,
Back and forth, tug of war, is a game played with my soul,
And everybody wanna try to pull me down,
So how will I find the strength to overcome,
When everything around me's tumblin' down,
But I know that I will not stop until I've won,
And I'm standin' back on solid ground,
