[Akira The Don, David Goggins - The Cookie Jar lyrics]
The cookie jar is something that I've made up
Of all the failures of my life
All the things that I failed and I went back
I failed and I went
Back and finally succeeded
All the things that kicked my ass
I put them all in the cookie jar
Cause at times of hell even the hardest man
In times of suffering what we do is
We forget how hard we really are
That's what suffering is
Suffering is a test that's all it is
Suffering is a true test of lifе
And so that cookie jar travels in
My brain so whenеver I
Get put in a situation where
I have poopy pants
The one with me mentality of
'oh my god life sucks'
I take the 1 second decision
I step out of my life for one second
Go into the cookie jar pull up
'Oh motherfucker you been you were in
Three hell weeks and finished two
One of those hell weeks a guy
Died because it was so bad
Oh you are a motherfucking bad ass, you are'
I put it back into the cookie jar and
I remember who the fuck I really am
I'm not the kid that was called nigga
I'm not the scared kid this is who I am
It's a reminder of who you truly
Are at the core of yourself this is who I am
But what I was saying in myself
The whole time on that track
This is who I am
Self talk and visualization are the
Two keys to my success
I believed for that last 19 miles
I was indestructible
Because I took myself in that chair
Crapping up my
Back, peeing blood down my leg, shin splints
Stress fractures
I used all that for motivation versus
Negativity I used it for motivation
I said to myself who on this fucking
Earth would still be going right now you are
You are you gotta be the hardest
Motherfucker on the planet
Is it true? I don't give a fuck
At that time it got me to the
Finish line of that fucking race
I believed it, I believe it today
I believed it enough to where my
Body said 'he's not gonna stop'
And that's I took all the
Negative things I need
To go to the hospital this and that
And i used it all who the hell
Could even get out of that chair
This is who I am
Who the hell would even think
About taping stress fractures up
This is who I am you do, you did
This is who I am
All those things I used for motivation
This is who I am this is who I am
This is who I am
All those things I used for motivation
