Story behind the song
this is my struggle; this is my gratitude; this is my promise, my vow .. this is my life in just 16 lines. this is my perception of life after surviving a near-fatal freak accident late november of 2004. i escaped the kiss of death and God gave me a second chance. not only that, but a rejuvenated spirit and reconciled perception of life. like a phoenix, this is my rebirth.
Lyrics
Its funny, the years just pass through my fingers like. sand.
I try to remember happy memories Ive. Had.
[And to be quite. Frank.] Ive faced.. [So much rain]
So much .. [hate / pain] .. but now Im seeing brighter days
[Brighter days ..] the word just LIVENS my SPIRIT
These are the EYES of the VICTOR, the finish line is nearer
[The finish line is nearer!!] I could cry when I hear it,
Thank the heavens I was BLESSED with divine intervention
Ahhh, its just SO refreshing ..
To be the. SOLE witness of my OWN progression
The victim of a freak accident, [I never dwell on these thoughts]
I remember the weeks passing, [was it a message from God?]
And to the best of my thoughts, most my memory’s lost
But I remember making a promise that wasn’t empty at all
I thank God for every DAY that Ive lived
[And if I took it back again ?] I wouldn’t be changing a THING
