My Journey Lyrics

I was just young
And that mountain was huge
Glanced up above and hopes just crashed


Like pieces of glass so hard to pick up
Because I was just
Broken n smashed, n lonely n crashed
Yea, my soul without no life
I was just waiting, waiting to die
Die

I nearly gave up
Yea, that thunder above
Celebrating my loss


But every match, every league
There's always a right to appeal, to repeat

Maybe I'll win this time?
Will I fail or succeed?

Things were indeed so tight
But them stars they still shined
That light, it sure gave some guide
And I rised, some hope in heart, lifted high


But them butterflies can only fly, within a mile
So I reached a point, when I looked up the sky
There I wished I could take, that flight
Hopes were strong, my strength rooted on the ground
N then there my eagle spirit, on sight
I go round and round and round and round
Worries always get us humans
And the wind was just too strong
When nothing goes right
So I wisely decide
To go left instead
Oh that burden on my head
And so I went falling, fallin, fallin
Hard on that ground

Oh my tears spillin a river!
Oh my body achin with pain!
And then my brain signalling it's insane
To try again
But I get up, despite this action
Lazziness ain't no gain
I was ready to do it, again and again
And again and again!


That greatness in that, option
I was reaching for the max
Exceeding up high
Oh those restless nights
Only some people know, what I've been through

Yea, so I was ready to throw, the final bomb
Some place in my heart knew
I was gonna make it, break through
Final moments, Tickin by
Chances n hopes were really high
But final moments, just gotta sit n watch
All that I could do was pray

Pray, my hard work payed off
Pray, that I could stay strong
And God above, so Merciful
Granted my wish, and strengthened my will
Gave me my dream, and shed that light
The light which shined then glowed and showed me
The right path
And I've been following it since then

And then look at me, today
I am who I wanted to be
Oh Lord, thank you for giving me
Such a big, huge, blessing
I know that God is always testin me
So Imma be underneath
His guidance and endless Mercy

Imma be big, Imma be strong
Cuz I dreamt big, and stretched up long
And Imma reach higher
Because this is just, the beginning
Of My Journey


And you million people out there
People who I inspire at 14
Mature thing to do, but I'm careful
I'm proud and happy, to share my story
Of My Journey
And all that glory I've gained
What a pleasure to stand up and slay
History!
