The Painfully Obvious

Give me that beat,
'Cause im on my feet.
I'm ready to run -
and I'll never be done.

taking this out to the people when
I'm off and running strong again.
You can't stop this pace - its not my own,
I'm taking off now before I'm thrown

Took me years to search
Right in my face
so obvious it hurts,
since I've ran this race

Deep under despair's wing,
down below my suffering,
I asked myself why I bleed -
to find that you're everything I need.

What I used to be looked worn,
and never were thoughts so torn,
than in the questions I'd begotten-
My past hardships forgotten

took me years to search
right in my face
so obvious it hurts,
since I've ran this race.

but here I am- starting off again
foot by foot pushing off that wind,
breathing in, breathing out,
raising my voice, rising up to SHOUT.

I need you like I need the sun,
going to run like this until I'm done
because you need me to -
and its all that you've asked me to do.

took me years to search
right in my face
so obvious it hurts
since I've ran this race.
