Lyrics
Practice
Blood, sweat, mostly tears
Bulking up on empathy
There's no refs in love
Sadness
Joy
Anger
Fear
Anima Sane
In Corpore Sano
Healthy body healthy mind
It's just as hard to
Be flexible
With your body as with your brain
Pumping iron at the feelings gym
Sadness
Joy
Anger
Fear
I was 4 foot 10 and
Weighed 90 pounds when I went into high school
I was destined for lifelong virginity and
Fear of chin up bars
(Virginity)
Then, I had an emotional growth spurt
I started to play in band
I hit my stride and became a man when
I became the drum major
(Virginity)
Athletes of emotion
We're athletes of emotion
Push ups, pull ups, deadlifts, and squats/ Fuck you coach
We've done all of those for our thoughts/ Fuck you schoolyard picks
Carbo loading on self-help books/ Fuck you hand eye coordination
Strengthening my core …. values/ Fuck you body mass index
Admitting I'm wrong is my leg day
We don't need no Olympics
Cuz we're gold medalists of the heart
We solve things with compassion
We are MVPs of love
We're Athletes of Emotion
We're Athletes of Emotion
