Test of Fear
I had a dream my mom was dying
she pulled me close and whispered in my ear
"life is a test of fear"
When I woke up I wrote it down
damn that's so profound
"life is a test of fear"
I had my father visit me
he cracked a joke but I did not find it funny
he said "when I die, you get lots of money"
Then I choked up and started to cry
said "I don't want you to die"
Life is hello, goodbye
I have a job at a daycare
Kids, snacks, a soccer ball outside
Life is a test of pride
So what'd you learn in school today?
She said "nothin"
I said "so what'd you do?"
Then she tells me everything:
the details of the scary thing she went through
I said "I'm so impressed, 'cause you did your best"
"when everything was unclear... life is a test of fear"
"Huh?"
"Life is a test of fear"
"What?"
"Life is a test, and you do your best"
"life is a test of fear"
she pulled me close and whispered in my ear
"life is a test of fear"
When I woke up I wrote it down
damn that's so profound
"life is a test of fear"
I had my father visit me
he cracked a joke but I did not find it funny
he said "when I die, you get lots of money"
Then I choked up and started to cry
said "I don't want you to die"
Life is hello, goodbye
I have a job at a daycare
Kids, snacks, a soccer ball outside
Life is a test of pride
So what'd you learn in school today?
She said "nothin"
I said "so what'd you do?"
Then she tells me everything:
the details of the scary thing she went through
I said "I'm so impressed, 'cause you did your best"
"when everything was unclear... life is a test of fear"
"Huh?"
"Life is a test of fear"
"What?"
"Life is a test, and you do your best"
"life is a test of fear"
