Scorpio
Ronnie Atkins Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Scorpio
You'll never read me
Never figure out
what lies behind my eyes
So strong and yet so vulnerable
I'm complex, consistent,
competitive
See you you
in black and white
Mysterious and perceptual
My trust ain't build up easily
But once you have it you' will see
You'll find no better friend than me
And it goes forever
Here comes the Scorpio
my poison lies within
Strength is my dynamo
as deadly as my sting
If you hurt me I will hurt you back so don't oppose my glee
Don't tread on me
And if you dare to walk with me you'll feel my sheer intensity
My passion and my jalousy
You'll be aware that I desire to lead and I don't take defeat
It's anchored deep inside of me
I'd jump into the fray for you
If you commit yourself to me
There ain't no thing I wouldn't do
My faith is endless
CHORUS
Mars is my lord life is my battlefield
Straight to the core I'm my own worst enemy
Here comes the scorpio
my stamina is strong
And when I've set my goals
I'll battle till it's won
Here comes the Scorpio
my poison lies within
Strength is my dynamo
as deadly as my sting
If you hurt me I will hurt you back




so don't oppose my glee
Don't tread on me

December 31st 2019 at 5:45 p.m. here in New Milford Pennsylvania on route 29 I was involved and one of the most horrific car crashes at people I've ever seen in their life.


I was hit head on at a combined speed of 125 mph at the scene of the crash which I don't remember much anymore I was told that I lost 80% of My blood and that basically during surgery I die twice on the operating table and was brought back I was in surgery for 13 and a half hours.


I broke my tibia shattered my fibia and so many places completely destroyed my left arm and had to have rods pins and screws in both legs both knees and my left arm completely rebuilt from The joint to the hand.


I spent about a month and a half in the hospital and then I went to physical rehab and I spent another week and then I spent another eight to nine months at home physical therapy.


The pain that I went through was there's no words to describe it as whatsoever.


I am currently disabled now because of the accident the guy that hit me basically unfortunately it would do the Pennsylvania law that if you don't have a certain amount of money you can't collect so my settlement was about $8,000 and my medical bills are over two million yeah not much left for me.


I was so that would never walk again or do this and do that and I refuse to accept that I do walk I do drive but I'm at 70% of my life the rest of my whole life I'll be 70%. Meaning that I will be able to run or do physical meaningful activities like I used to.


Before that in 2012 my fiance killed herself on October 15th my other dog passed away on December 15th 2012 my mom died January 27th 2013 and then two years later I lost two more people two more relatives two best friends and so on and so on and then my uncle and my aunt passed away and then I had the horrific accident that changed my life.


so you're probably wondering why the hell am I telling everybody this because I want everybody to know that if I can do it and Ronnie can do it than anybody can do it because I never gave up I don't have hardly any friends I don't have a relationship I'm single you know what made it even harder for my or my surgeon to operate on me as I'm six foot seven and like she said you know you die twice and we brought you back.


And there's a reason that you're back and I don't know what that is and maybe it's to tell people that you can't give up you know like Ronnie says in the song you know you have one shot one voice and he's right and the voice for me is to tell people to spread my message to spread my story so people can realize that when they're at their darkest Days things can be better you just have to make them better they're not going to get better on your own unless you put in the effort.


most people would have probably given up and just said the hell with it but for some reason I did not I push myself to the breaking point and here in New Milford Pennsylvania you know we had a pretty bad winter it was a lot of snow it's starting to melt now it's about 60° outside which is great but we had a hell of a snowstorm and we had a hell of all the snow this year then it's been hell on me let me tell you.


So I just wanted to put that story out there and let everybody know that if I can go through what I went through and Ronnie can go through what he went through then there's nothing anybody can't do out there that's having a problem.


All you have to do is believe in yourself and commit to it and you can do it people have said that there's no way I should be walking there's no way I should be doing this no I should be doing that and they're right you know they're totally right I mean I've got injuries that people have never seen their life but you know what I'm here talking to everybody right now telling people that if I can do it you can do it just believe in yourself put in the hard work and in the end you will succeed.


my mom would always have a saying that when things got the darkest of our life she would always go outside look at the sky and say "now please light My darkest hour"


And that's what I said for a long long time and I still say it times just remember you can do anything your mind you put to just believe in yourself and don't give up.


Thank you for listening and take care

Anybody that ever had a good time listening to his voice should buy this album the week of its release. Let us make Ronnie happy. He deserves it so much.

@dianas5247

Wow! Another amazing song, Ronnie! Pre-ordered after Real was released. I've been listening to you sing for decades. Your voice is still strong. Sending prayers for you to stay strong.

@bejay

Hearing Atkins, making me proud being a dane. And if in mind that Ronnie is deadly sick of cancer. This was a split goal he make, to make an solo album. And that is done, and very good one. He´s next goal is back on stage. I hope it´s come true. If so I`l be there.

@kvkmuzic7092

As I write this, 5 thumbs voted down. Really? Who are these people? Why even listen? God blessed this man and his band with talent. Thanks Ronnie. May you and the Maids live long and keep the great tunes coming!

@Erkilmarl

I don't feel it's my duty to vote down every video I don't like. I just move on.

@jor-el1298

I will never understand why people complain about the thumbs down (28 right now) and don't notice the 1,4 K thumbs up. It's a pretty massive difference. The thumbs down option it's there, people use it, they have their reasons, get over it. As others said, if I don't like it, I move on, but not all are like that.
