Standing Ovation: Feat T-Bosko
Black Lyrics
Monsters waiting outside of my home
Are ready to kill me again
But now I just fight with myself
Spotlight taking us over again
Like a hole in the chest
That is crowded with voices
Way bigger than mine
Horns and rumble of thunder again
Im ready to follow the game
Standing ovation and cry
Shadows come all back again here by night
And it feels like an endless routine of
Circles and circles of lives just
Trying to win it's own fight
And all can see is on fire
But now I will sit down and listen
The sound of the voices within
Auburn is now my new white
Horns and rumble of thunder again
Im ready to follow the game
Do I deserve all this light
Standing ovation and
Horns and rumble of thunder again
Inside of my head where there's silence
Do I deserve all this light
Standing ovation and cry
Are ready to kill me again
But now I just fight with myself
Spotlight taking us over again
Like a hole in the chest
That is crowded with voices
Way bigger than mine
Horns and rumble of thunder again
Im ready to follow the game
Standing ovation and cry
And it feels like an endless routine of
Circles and circles of lives just
Trying to win it's own fight
And all can see is on fire
But now I will sit down and listen
The sound of the voices within
Auburn is now my new white
Horns and rumble of thunder again
Im ready to follow the game
Do I deserve all this light
Standing ovation and
Horns and rumble of thunder again
Inside of my head where there's silence
Do I deserve all this light
Standing ovation and cry
