October
I wrote this song for Tricia, I want her to hear it first
My favorite store clerk known me damn near since birth
And when I heard the news with my mom I was confused
'Did you hear what happened?' Cancer, never thought would have her
But here we are to this day, she fought back, she's okay
Head was shaved wearin' her game face, lookin' straight
Down the chamber, they came for, disclaimer
The aim was no match for the passion of our star act
Had to have the know how to throw down, blow out of the water
Masses being wrote out by her doctor, didn't knock her
God give the hardest battles to his strongest warriors
Hearing they won the fight's the biggest joy you've ever heard
October now, we out wearing our ribbons
'Cuz we all joined your fight, we all made a decision
To be committed, livin' and stronger than little muscle tissue
So get your steps, Tricia, 'cuz you know I'm standing with you
Watch me, can't stop me
I'm tougher, than concrete
Hear it in the way that I breathe, that I sing
Surrounded by kings and queens and IV's
Six letter word I don't know the meaning
I'm crawling, kneeling, standing, running, screaming
I am a commander marchin' with a banner
Damn sure I am that I ain't answerin' to cancer
It's a word, not a life sentence
In fact I'm not even sure I heard what you meant
'Cuz yes sir I can stand sure on my land
Capitalize, begin my day with a bang, call me Thailand
Strands of my DNA, they wanna say
I salute all of you, what you're going through
Pushed through the ringer I'm just a singer, I know that
I hope I show that to you my spirit's true
Rogue chemicals are miniscule, the smallest part
Grandma use her brain, Uncle loves through heart
Auntie then use her chest to bless us through these tests
Testament to her faith, she fights by sheer will
Got a marathon ahead of us, no time for standing still
When the pressure's on don't be bettin' on no magic wand
We got enough of the brawn, united, October strong
Watch me, can't stop me
I'm tougher, than concrete
Hear it in the way that I breathe, that I sing
Surrounded by kings and queens and IV's
Six letter word I don't know the meaning
I'm crawling, kneeling, standing, running, screaming
I am a commander marchin' with a banner
Damn sure I am that I ain't answerin' to cancer
Pitchers, stunters
Position players, front runners
Moms and brothers you never thought it would be
Bouncin' back on trampoline springs, kickin' like a wallabee
Can't keep 'em down and limited, committed to finishin'
Remission go down the hall to the bell they installed
Ring it loud and proud, rip it right off the wall
Got the rest of your life to live, time to go and start it off
Watch me, can't stop me
I'm tougher, than concrete
Hear it in the way that I breathe, that I sing
Surrounded by kings and queens and IV's
Six letter word I don't know the meaning
I'm crawling, kneeling, standing, running, screaming
I am a commander marchin' with a banner
Damn sure I am that I ain't answerin' to cancer
Watch me, can't stop me
I'm tougher, than concrete
Hear it in the way that I breathe, that I sing
Surrounded by kings and queens and IV's
Six letter word I don't know the meaning
I'm crawling, kneeling, standing, running, screaming
I am a commander marchin' with a banner
Damn sure I am that I ain't answerin' to cancer
