M.anifest, Bodi - Hercules lyrics

Not every storm cloud’s got a silver lining
But you gotta have the darkness
To see the sun shining
And sometimes shit just happens
And all you can do is control your reaction
It’s all passin, the beautiful and tragic
It’s an act of vanishing magic
When lines in the hourglass sand are drawn
And you can’t take a picture
It’s already gone
This goes beyond carpe diem
Now’s all you have til the eyes closed leavin
Ain't always meanin in the plotline schemin
Too busy breathin that the truth
Is make believe in
Yourself, but, take the body shots
Fight like a bull in a china shop
It’s never gonna stop
Life is a test until the
Quiz goes pop to stand

Up, there’s no shame
We all fall down like drops of rain to
Stand, up, I do the same
May forget the face
But they won’t forget the name when you stand
May forget the face
But they won’t forget the name when you stand

Some days you’re the pigeon
In others the statue
But you can’t control what attacks you
Black blues how you’re gonna be left
Sometimes you can’t stay on your chest
Never expect a hand to pull you vertical
Vertigo riddles, you can’t take it personal
When people would rather see
You fall than fly
Why you think there’s so many
Bullet holes in night’s sky?
Shootin stars, they wish on
Cause they don’t wanna be
The only victim of the prison of gravity
See kids rip their wings out their vertebrae
Just to stick below the clouds with
The other birds of prey
Cause that ain't freedom
Freedom is refusin the
Bullshit they’re feeding
Making the most of the world before leaving
And marching to the sunset no matter
When you’re leaving to stand

Up, there’s no shame
We all fall down like drops of rain to
Stand, up, I do the same
May forget the face
But they won’t forget the name when you stand
May forget the face
But they won’t forget the name when you stand

Yo, see, i go hard on this journey
Down for that dope sound
Not an attorney, but legally I stay bound
To the words I utter, I don't stutter now
Even though a legion of trying
To bring me down the road less traveled
The challenge unravels
And the last straw coulda broke
The back of the camel
I could swim across the English Channel
Emerge dry as a drub and
Then put on my flannel
Pants, or maybe trousers, yep
The beat arouses
Moving on strong make the weak say wowzers
We build houses filled with
Many dreams and goals
Some moments sugar free like sweet and lo
Still we on a roll trying
To make the honor roll
An African noble and admirable
I could put my own soul as collateral
Fo sho, I pay calm on what I owe
