Underdog

Just a kid when I heard the call
Something outside of these "normal" forms
So deep I could not ignore
But a road so hard, I was just so lost
Didn't really know what I signed up for
Harder day than the one before
Knew I could fly but I didn't know why
Didn't trust in myself or in

All my life I've been written off
These chips on my shoulders won't come off
The quintessential underdog
The stone that the diamonds won't applaud
All these years I've been bottled up
Believed in the words that I'm "not enough"
Maybe it's time for my mind to stop all of this self barrage

Can this mic and my vocal chords conjure hue from a monochrome?
Conjure hope from a barren form?
Find some peace in the heart of the storm?
So afraid when my eyes are closed
What if everything just falls to the floor
Guess it's time for a change in course
Something higher than the bottom floor?

Just a kid when I heard the call
Maybe there's a rise for every fall
Maybe there's an angel in every hall
It's how we get through it all
Maybe it's time to lift the veil and see the odds are not against
Maybe it's worth turning night to day yea everyday
As it comes to be that the soothing ray at the end of the day was not a train that's Heading My way
It's nothing more than an angel's name
But thank you James!

All my life I've been written off
These chips on my shoulders won't come off
The quintessential underdog
The stone that the diamonds won't applaud
All these years I've been bottled up
Believed in the words that I'm "not enough"
Maybe it's time for my mind to stop all of this self barrage

Hand me a page I got more to say
Moulding the pieces together like clay
Scream these words through the line arrays
"I won't stop 'til you know my name"

All my life I've been written off
These chips on my shoulders won't come off
The quintessential underdog
The stone that the diamonds won't applaud
All these years I've been bottled up
Believed in the words that I'm "not enough"
Maybe it's time for my mind to stop all of this self barrage

All my life I've been written off
These chips on my shoulders won't come off
The quintessential underdog
The stone that the diamonds won't applaud
All these years I've been bottled up
Believed in the words that I'm "not enough"
Maybe it's time for my mind to stop all of this self barrage
