Alive Lyrics

I don't want to get into morbid thoughts but at least for me I won't get caught

Not thinking ahead, and trying to live, every day, so time won't get lost

If you're willing, you'll be receiving time with open palms

If you're living it right keep the distance in sight, you'll be stealing time without a broken law

I'm not saying that you have to plan out every day

But you should probably recollect what happened yesterday

Sure it might've been less than great, you're probably destined for better days

But every day is another opportunity for you to try to go several ways

If it were up to me it just wouldn't be enough for me

To wait until my expiration date just tries to come for me

If you've ever wavered then just put your faith and trust in me

There is nothing about living life that doesn't comfort me

Can't say I'm living comfortably but all you'll feel is love from me

You and I are both alive and that alone is comforting

This is just the tip of the iceberg in case you're wondering

Took a beat that was dark and punishing and turned it into brotherly

I'm alive, and you're alive

Thankful for each day that passes by

I'm alive, and you're alive

Never take for granted all this time

I'm alive, and you're alive

If you're listening to this then you are fine

I'm alive, and you're alive

So let's celebrate the fact that we're alive

What an incredible life I lead, my wife and I are quite a team

And my son I just love him so much and I hope he becomes a better man than I try to be

They're down for whatever because when I pick a destination they're ready to ride with me

I'm saying this extremely publicly but I promise it's said more in privacy

There's so many times in my life where I just truly haven't been nearly as fortunate

The love they're giving me versus the love I deserve is wildly disproportionate

There were many times in my life where I thought it just might be time to stick a fork in it

But life is a crooked path, through the looking glass, you're just guessing which course to pick

I didn't really come here to humble brag but trust me when I say that I've done the math

I've figured it out and I'm living it now, I have all the love without double taps

They've been nothing but supportive once I said I was comin' back

Whether I make 100 tracks or end up a one hit wonder fad

All I'm saying is there were points in my life in which this wouldn't happen

But if you're alive and have someone on your side you can be pushin' past it

Sure, you don't need support but trust me when I say that it's good to have it

You're the author of your story so you might as well write a book of magic

I'm alive, and you're alive

Thankful for each day that passes by

I'm alive, and you're alive

Never take for granted all this time

I'm alive, and you're alive

If you're listening to this then you are fine

I'm alive, and you're alive

So let's celebrate the fact that we're alive
