Good as Hell
paul rey Lyrics

Broke free from your chains and the things that used to hold me back
I've let go of everything that held me back and keeps me chained to the past.

You've lost the grip but I feel the print from your hand
Though I'm no longer held by you, the scars you left still remain.

Now I'm finally able to figure it out and understand who I am
I've come to a realization of who I am and what I want out of life.

Took control even though I thought I was too late
I seized control of my life, even though I felt like it was too late to start out.

On the right track, but I was going the wrong way
I was on my way to success but I was following the wrong path to achieve it.

They say dig where you stand, but I can't stay
I know I should focus on my current situation, but I know I cannot remain stagnant either.

And dig my own grave, today I say
I refuse to waste my life following a path to nowhere and end up regretting it.

I feel like screaming till my lungs have no air
I have so much built-up energy and emotion that I want to release it all by shouting.

Feel like running, though I don't know where
I feel like moving forward but don't know where that direction will lead me.

Feel like laughing till I'm drowning in tears
I feel such immense happiness that it can only be expressed by both laughing and crying simultaneously.

Broker than most though I feel richer than them all
Even though I have less money than most people, I feel like I have more because I'm happy with my situation.

Counting blessings as the rain begins to fall
I'm grateful for everything I have even as more problems and struggles arise.

Growing stronger, holding on to what I want
I'm becoming stronger in my pursuit of my goals and I refuse to let go of what I want.

But I won't brake down, hold my chin high never face down
I will not break down or give up, I will face everything head-on with confidence and pride.

That same old path again, promise I will never look back again, cause...
I'm making a promise to myself not to follow the same mistakes of the past, and to move forward with determination and conviction.

And I won't come down, cause now I'm headed up
I'm on my way up and I won't let anyone or anything pull me down again.

I can show you how, if you had enough
If you have enough motivation, I can show you how to make the same progress I've made.

Pick yourself up from the ground, don't you think of giving up now
Don't give up hope, you can still start over and reach your dreams, just get up and keep moving forward.

Let's walk down this road cause I know
Let's travel down this new path together because I have confidence in our abilities and our success.

For the first time in years I feel good as hell
I haven't felt this good in years, and it's an incredible feeling that I want to hold onto and cherish.
